Patrick's best friend Sean took some pics of us at Leesylvania state park. The Potomac River is in the back ground, it is a pretty park.

I am getting ahead on my Christmas cards:) Here are just a few

house guests

Jen and her boys came to visit in D.C! We had so much fun....I didn't take that many pictures though, sorry. The first day we went to the Marine Corps museum and Patrick came with us, which made it special. It was the most amazing museum, one of the best museums i've ever been too. It was very moving and I felt very proud of my husband and my brother in law:) That same day, we went to Arlington National Cemetary, also amazing. It is so peaceful, everyone is so respectful when they are there. It is so amazing to read the tombs. If you have never been there, you need to read about it or visit! FABULOUS!
The next day, Jen and the boys went out alone to explore, they had a great time! We went to Mount Vernon one day too- very beautiful....

The boys were great, they played Xbox whenever they were here! They all loved playing with Lillie too. She loved having them here when she woke up in the morning! Braden slept on the couch and every morning she would run up to him and keep saying "Hi" over and over...so funny!

ahh fall....

Fall is such a beautiful time in Virginia! It has definately made living here more enjoyable! Yesterday we went to this great old home that is a nursery/pumpkin patch! It was so cute and expensive, but it was just for the experience, I think I will go get the rest of the pumpkins at the grocery store;) Anyways, we had a great time, Lillie and I will probably go back this week because they have bounce houses and a petting zoo, and a pumpkin hunt! so cute!!!!

Happy Fall Everyone!

she knows how to smell flowers;)

so proud!
