Grandma visits

We were so happy that the husband's Mom was able to visit us in early July. We were fortunate that the really hot weather did not happen until the end of her visit. My husband took Friday off of work so that we could venture down to Annapolis. It is only about a 30 minute drive from our house.

We were not really sure what it would be like down there. But once we finally got down there we realized we would have plenty to do with lots of walking.

Of course, everyone was hungry so first on the list was to eat. It was a gorgeous day so we ate outside.

The colonial man we ran into at the informational desk was admiring my elbows. Yes, I said elbows. He said that he was not used to women dressing in such a manner. The manner being shorts and a shirt I might add. I told him things have changed a bit from his time.

Our first stop was to the Navel Academy. Once we were checked out and frisked, kidding, we made our way to get some pictures taken with a beautiful backdrop.




We decided to go to the museum that was suggested by the person at the information desk. We didn't realize that it was so far from where we were. But we walked to the museum and looked around. If you are a history buff, this is the place for you.

It was a very nice day. We definitely need to visit again.
We spent a lot of time in the pool that weekend. It ended up getting hot and the pool is always a good way to get cooled off and to get a little exercise.
We managed to get a few more pictures of Grandma and the boys.

Mom and Son.
The boys always enjoy visits from Grandma. They know she always brings them a little something. This time she brought the 3-d Puzzles. The boys spent the entire afternoon putting the puzzle together. They loved it.
We hope we can see Grandma again sometime soon.
