A Post in Pictures!

Uncle Craig is always willing to hold a baby (he’s used to it).  Pap Pap giving Freddy some love from what he doesn’t know will be the last time he is able to sit in that chair (funny story…ask uncle craig for details…in his defense though – those chairs were like 50 years old)

Happy to be celebrating Mammaw’s 70th birthday in Wheeling with the fam.

Isn’t this a beautiful picture of Nana?  You’re the best Nana….

It was actually Uncle Craig and Aunt Judi’s Anniversary!  Happy Anniversary!  Aunt Judi put together an AWESOME dinner to celebrate for Mammaw!  Thanks Aunt Judi – it was fun and TASTY!

“I see you Mama”

Also a good picture of Aunt Judi if I do say so myself….again…Thanks for doing all that work for Mammaw and everyone.  It was so nice to see everyone.

It was such a nice day – I could have fallen asleep right there as well.  (P.S. I made the onesie a STEELER onesie) Seriously though, it was THE perfect day.  Couldn’t have been better (well, maybe if Ye Ye was there to celebrate with us.  WE MISS YOU!)

Another good picture of Burgess’ cousin Nate and his girlfriend Sara.

Freddy wants that cake!

Make a wish Mammaw!

It was such a nice time.  It was good to get to have a visit with everyone while we are still on this side of the state.  We probably won’t get to see so much of Mammaw and Pap Pap but we’ll be A LOT closer to Aunt Judi and Uncle Craig.

Burgess had the day off on Monday so we took Freddy swimming

Freddy got a little tired so we soaked in some sun at the pool.

Then while we were chillin, I said to Burg, “Gosh we should have planned to go camping while you had these two days off in a row….HEY, WHY DON’T WE GO CAMPING?  We can stay one night and then come home.”  It took some convincing but Burgess gave in.  We heard about a place that was nearby called Raccoon Creek State Park.  I looked it up and it was only about 40 minutes away, has a lake with a beach for swimming and lots of hiking trails so we decided to give it a try.  We rushed home and packed up the car, hit up the grocery store for some hot dogs and marshmellows and then we hit the road.  I’m so glad we did!  We had a great time!

Daddy unloading the car.

Freddy, having a great time watching Mama and Daddy put up the tent.

“Mama are we camping?”

Freddy LOVED his sleeping bag

Going to bed

Waking up

Freddy loved getting to spend so much time with Daddy.  We spent pretty much the whole day at the beach…OK more pictures.

Freddy LOVING the lake

“Freddy, time to take a nap…OK?”

“But Mama, there are too many things to look at!”

“Freddy…..”

“OK”

“Finally ”

Camping was the best thing we could have done.  Burgess officially has a job in Philly and will be in school full time so Freddy and I will be with out a Daddy a lot of the time.  It was WONDERFUL to be able to spend a few days ALL together before things get really crazy.  The next two weeks will be spent packing and packing and packing and then we are OFF on a new adventure!
