Well, after our weekend in Palm Beach Gardens for the baseball tournament, we were invited to visit our good friends the Heimers in Maryland - where they are summering. Since the kids had never been to the DC area...and I had a little bit of vacation time - we decided "why not?!?!" So we packed up the car again - and we were off...! We left at 5:15am Monday morning and Bret (the drill sergeant) was adamant about keeping our stops to a minimum and we arrived in Maryland at the Heimer's doorstep before 8:00pm that evening!
We had so much fun with our friends are so appreciative of their hospitality. We played at the pool, went "chickin neckin" (crabin) and visited Washington DC! Leslie & Bret were even able to get in a game of tennis or two... The weather in Maryland is amazing and this Florida girl did not miss the sticky humidity at all! Justin is the teaching pro at the Breton Bay Golf & Country Club, which is a beautiful course in a fantastic location. I can see why the Heimer clan love their Maryland summer home. The Morris' definitely plan to return for another visit - that is if we are invited back!
The Wyoming state flag flying in our nation's capital!
I love this cool picture of the Washington Monument.
This was a sign that was posted on the window of one of the workrooms at the Smithsonian...
I just thought it was so funny!
We teased Bret that he looked like the husband on Big Love, he braved touring DC with 4 women & 4 kids! We were quite the "big lovin family" that day!
We tried...to be cleaver!
Emily was such a good girl during a our day in DC - We really hustled that day & the kids were such troopers!
Jackson proudly stands in front of one of the Marine Corps memorials. Jackson's granfather, great-grandfather & great great grandfather served and fought for our country.
Bret & Jackson at the World War II Memorial... this is one of the newest memorials in Washington DC. It is very well done....
We caught crabs!!! (hee, hee) The boys had a total blast chicken neckin for Maryland Blue Crabs in Breton Bay! Even Emily got one ~ She was super excited!
