Visiting Grandmom & PopPop at the Shore

At the Shore

On Thursday, we headed out to Delaware to visit with Grandmom & PopPop. The weatherman promised us good beach weather, so we were all very excited. The traffic to the Bay Bridge (outside of Annapolis, over the Chesapeake Bay) was light and we made the trip to the shore in good time - 3 hours and 15 minutes!

Of course, the grandparents were thrilled to see the girls. There was a beautiful, cool sea breeze blowing when we arrived. It put us in vacation mode right away! Once we got settled in, we decided to visit the strawberry patch that is about 1/2 a mile from the house. It was Josie's first time picking. Maddie is an old pro. We picked enough for our family and a bit extra so Grandmom could share with her neighbors. Josie picked and ate, picked and ate so she contributed little to our haul!

Aunt Claudine was in neighboring Ocean City, MD with her friends, so Maddie spent Friday on the beach with them. Josie & I picked up Daddy, who arrived from a business trip in Ohio around 2 PM.

James & I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary last night with a family dinner at a local seafood restaurant. It was delicious and PopPop treated! Thanks, Dad!

Today we will attend a cookout at Pete & Donna's house (long time friends of Pop and Grandmoms) and then head home in the evening. We have to get home to Casey and Carson, who are no doubt driving their caretakers crazy! More photos to follow!!

Thank You to all our soldiers and veterans for your service to our country.
