Occoquan, Va is very special to me. One of the reasons I love it so much is because over 5 1/2 years ago, Seth Michael proposed to me in Occoquan! If you don’t know the story, it is one of the BEST proposals EVER. I’ll save that for another day.
We live less than a mile from this adorable town. It’s a wholesome little town that has lots of shops, cafes, music and an added bonus…the Potomac River. Seth and I hope to have a boat one day since we live so close to the water and would love to take advantage of just docking our boat (am I using the right boat terminology? Shows how much I know about the boating world) and sailing to some of the local restaurants and shops off the Potomac River……someday……
The weather has been gorgeous lately so last Sunday we took a little family trip to Occoquan. We enjoyed feeding the ducks and listening to the live band playing. Abel’s favorite spot was the construction zone where they are building million dollar waterfront homes. Of course, we toured the model home acting like we could afford one.
If you are local I would recommend visiting this charming little town.
Abel was fascinated by the live music. He started dancing and soon attracted his own crowd.
Can I get just one picture with my son without him trying to jump out of my arms?
Guess not!
Wholesome family photo.
