Family Visit




My family came out to visit this last week. It was the perfect vacation. The week was full of places to see, with everything from roller coaster rides, to touring the White House. We loved every minute we had with them. It was so hard to have to leave. Abby had a blast hanging with the family. Thanks for a wonderful time! We love you and miss you! We're excited to see you in a month for Dave's wedding. Love you!


We survived the Griffin Roller Coaster...barely. The boys had us sitting on the front with our feet dangling off the cliff...literally. Yikes. Good times.

The picture below is Dad after he won the 'Wac a Mole' competition against everyone in the family. He always wins. This time he got a prize. It now sits with Abby in her crib. Thanks Dad.

Building Sandcastles...

Bonding with Uncle Dave


Lunch with Elmo. Pops and Abby were having the time of their life. Abby was afraid at first, but once she got comfortable, she had a blast. The whole event proved to be one of the favorites for everyone. :) Mac n' cheese for all! Thanks for a great birthday Pops and Nana.

The cupcakes were Abby's favorite.

Can you tell she enjoyed every bite?



Pops and Oscar bonded.

Me and 'Sup da Pup'


Gotta have a Wawa. Here's Dave showin' us how to eat a Wawa sandwich. The way to do it is eating in the parking lot, off the trunk. Awesome. Very sophisticated.

Inside the Capitol Rotunda


Dad tired to go find a secret passageway to the underground tunnel at Mount Vernon. Instead of finding it, he got covered in burs. Poor guy.

Don't ask
