two good weeks

so much has happened in the last couple of weeks and we have been having too much fun.  the murray's came up two weeks ago and spent a couple of days with us in stafford.  how wonderful it is to have them in our home!  we miss them so much {and the rest of our family, too!}.   our biggest of adventure of the weekend was our trip to the little trailer across the street where a man and his family sell fresh crabs and shrimp.  they steamed everything right there and we brought it back to the apartment to eat eat eat... so delicious!

vince headed off on his second FEX and megs made a last minute decision to visit.  blessed to have wonderful friends like her. we had the best adventure in washington, dc on her birthday.  the day started at the dc cupcakes shop {yes, the one from the show on tlc!} where we enjoyed the most delicious treats.  how we ever chose one to taste, i'm not sure.  but we did-- peanut butter and coconut!

we did the walking tour of all the monuments while we were in town, too.  it really never gets old.  the city is just so beautiful.

thanks megan for coming all that way to hang out.  it was so refreshing to see a friend.

patrol FEX went well for vince and he was a lot better off coming home this time around than after his last week in the field.  and... he aced land navigation.  so glad for him :)

now it's off to NYC for our first anniversary!  the last year has really flown and oh how wonderful it has been.
