Mom and Abby’s Erie Adventure!
Abby and I take a road trip to Erie, PA to visit the Meyers!
Finally…FALL!
It’s a beautiful week for the leaves down here in the Hampton Roads area. Abby and I went to Colonial Williamsburg for a picnic lunch on Duke of Gloucester St on Tues and she had a ball running all around the capital building and kicking up leaves! Last night there was a big storm so […]
The Littlest Bride
Abby has become very interested in brides lately. They’re referenced in all the Disney princess stories, we recently had the wedding of Matt and Carley, and we’re attending the wedding of my cousin Sue in a week and a half, so brides have been in our regular conversation a lot. She asked me this morning […]
Children’s Museum
We’ve recently purchased a membership at the Portsmouth Children’s Museum downtown. It’s currently under major construction (it looks like it’s going to be awesome), so they’ve moved a few of the exhibits to a small office space down the street temporarily until the new one opens in April 2011. It’s small, but Abby really enjoys […]
Pumpkin Painting
Abby picked out a tiny pumpkin a few weeks ago when we went to a local pumpkin patch. She had the great idea to paint it, so I set her up out back with some paints and a brush, and she went to town! I think she came up with a beautiful work of art. […]

Gunpowder State Park
Abby and I spent Saturday at Gunpowder State Park with Mimi, Pop Pop, and Cousin Jordan. It was a BEAUTIFUL day and we found a nice shaded spot under a tree to camp out and have a picnic lunch. Abby loved running down on to the small sandy beach front they have there. It was […]
Summer fun continues!
As we near the end of July and the soon-to-be beginning of our relocation from DC to VA, Abby continues to find lots of ways to beat the heat and enjoy the height of summer! Here’s a few pics of our fun times…notice they’re mostly inside (it’s hard to play outside when it’s 100+ degrees).
