Katie's Too Short Overnight Visit!

For the second time this year my good friend Katie came to visit me! For those of you who don't know, Katie is my good friend from Northern Virginia... actually she loves in an Capitol Hill apartment at the moment... Too Cool! ~ Katie arrived Friday night, slept, and then had breakfast with us Saturday morning... Tony made us pancakes! :) ~ Right before Katie left Saturday afternoon to go to a friends' wedding in Poquoson (the real reason she came to Southern Virginia.) we took these photos. ~ These photos were taken in front of our little c.1919 home... Can you believe Jackson is not in any of these photos? He was taking a little nap. ~~~I Love you Katie! Your visit was much too short! (P.S. Katie is a proud VT Alum and she brought Jackson a little gift from her last visit to Tech : a Virginia Tech onesie! :) Thanks, Katie!) ~~~~K~

Beach Week/ Neptune Fest!

Last week my Mom came down and stayed at Turtle Cay between 6th and 7th streets at Virginia Beach! I drove out Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, returning home each night to sleep and then kiss Tony good bye before I left mid-morning. Mom and I had a great time together! She would play with Jackson in the pool and I'd soak in the hot tub... it was great! We also LOVED the sand sculptures! The artists worked on them all week. It was so interesting to see how they totally changed their on Wednesdays when most of the sculptures collapsed. My Mom and I both liked the sandcastles with the arches the best. :) It was such a beautiful beach week!
