Visit to Maryland

Once upon a time, it was almost Labor Day weekend. And I suddenly had an epiphany which involved me realizing that Labor Day weekends involve an extended weekend for college students, i.e. Jessica and me. So I promptly decided that a visit to Maryland should be in order. Details were worked out, and Friday afternoon saw me zipping home from college, loading up the car, and leaving with my mom, Annetta, and Lydia. We had a fairly uneventful trip down...it's like 6 or 7 hours away, so it's not too bad.

 Anyhow, I took a bunch of pictures, so here they are.

First, a picture of their house.



And this is me, sacked out on my air mattress. The girls were so sweet and let us use their room while they stayed at their grandma's home (which is basically in their back yard).


 We went on a walk and got some cool pics...

 ...all the girls






Kevin gave us a 4-wheeler ride, which was fun and I didn't even fall off, which was good.


















 This butterfly was being photogenic.




And of course I snapped some pics of Jess and Kevin...








 And yes, for the astute among you, the above and below picture is the same one...I edited it two ways and couldn't decide which I liked better.



The next 4 pictures are a series of attempts to make grass mustaches. Apparently harder than it looks ;)
















 And then Monday afternoon we loaded ourselves back up and headed home!
