Maryland weekend-with LOTS of pictures!

Welcome to MY land!Over our wedding anniversary weekend we headed down to Germantown, MD to visit our closest family members Meg & Dave & to meet their new little sweetie, McKelle.
It was a short trip, but very enjoyable! Matt finished taking a test Friday morning and we took off on the 5 hr drive. We really had so much fun in such a short amount of time. We are so grateful to have at least some family living within driving distance!
Thanks you guys for letting us come & visit!!!

Luke wakes up at about 7am every morning, so by 8am we were ready for the day. The new parents needed their sleep (can ya blame them with a 5 wk old?). Meg & Dave live in a nice apartment complex and right outside their door is a park, pool & the club house. Luke had never really played on a park before so we thought we'd head outside until everyone else got up. It looked sunny, but we know how deceiving Cleveland weather can be and thought it'd be the same so we took our jackets.
It was the most AMAZING feeling when we stepped out the door into 70 degree weather at 8:00 in the MORNING!!!!

Not sure why, but I love this picture.

What a stud.

Where we live!
Sooo far from home... :(

Isn't this fun?

Notice the drool.

Oh how I love my boys.

We headed over to this pretty little pond to take a stroll.
We may look cold, but it was actually in the 70's!!!! The sun was out most of the day, except when we took these pictures.

The daddy's with the babies.

Cousins.Matt likes to take pictures of birds, turtles...any living thing there is to offer at a pond.
Here are your Terrapin Turtles Hun.
(And no we are not getting a pet turtle).

After spending time at the pond we ate an awesome lunch at an Amish Market. It was awesome! Highly recommended. In fact, I can't wait to go back just to eat there! (And see Dave & Meg..hehe).After lunch Luke needed a nap (as you can tell from the pic), but I just wanted to share how Luke felt about the baby when his mommy and daddy were around her. He wasn't like this the whole time, but he definitely got jealous.

Later that evening we drove into Virginia to see the Potomac Falls. We were actually quite impressed! It was very pretty with the sun setting and the wonderful weather!
I have a crazy video of some guys kayaking (and nearly killing themselves) that I will post later.

The happy (& tired, I'm sure) new parents!
Dave, Meg & McKelle

Our fam.

We did a little photo shoot of little McKelle while I was there, here's one of the many pictures. Isn't she sweet?

Silly Luke. I think he was trying to kiss her in this picture.

As we drove away I looked at our car temperature thing that says the temp outside and it said 77...oh how I'll miss you 77 degree weather!!!
