Travels galore


The past two weekends have been filled with travels for our family. Two weeks ago, Tyler & I took a little trip up 95 to Fredericksburg to visit with my friends from Mary Washington for my 10 year reunion. (I've been out of college for 10 years???? Yikes.) Travis left the next day for a business trip to New Orleans. Last weekend, we packed Tyler up to stay with Gramme & Granddad while Trav & I enjoyed a relaxing weekend in VA Beach at a B&B. It must be summer!!!


My "reunion", as it were, in Fred-ericksburg was a lot of fun. We met up at Heidi & Riley's house with Shoshana & her two girls, Meredith & Marty and their 2 kids, Andrea & her daughter, and Jim & his new wife Kathleen. We had a great time playing inside and out, and thank goodness that Heidi had some Backyardigans on DVR when things got hairy. I think Tyler had a great time playing with all the girls that were there, though sharing is still something that he has issues with (he's 2, after all). It was great to see some old friends, though it's still hard to believe that it's been 10 years already.
Last weekend, Travis & I celebrated our 5 year anniversary. In some respects it feels as if these 5 years have flown by, and in others it feels like we've been together for an eternity (in a good way). We went to a B&B in VA Beach and have a beautiful room with a great spa bathroom. We enjoyed just being away from home and walking on the beach. It really got us in the mood for our trip to Emerald Isle coming up in just 4 weeks. Tyler had a blast with his grandparents, and got to visit with a VERY pregnant Aunt Jenn, as well as Great-Grandma Smith. He went to cousin Jordan's baseball game in Louisa and had fun just running around. It was a great weekend all around, but we were all happy to be back together.
There's lots more travelling on the calendar for this summer!
