...And Up to Maryland

Bernie was sweet enough to drive down to Salem to pick us up from my parents' house and take us back up to Maryland. We enjoyed a stop off at JMU on the way up to eat at Mr. J's Bagel Shop and to get some new school gear for the big game we went to on Saturday. Mitch also flew in from Nashville on Thursday night so we had fun hanging out with him and Jackie for most of Friday!
Graham showed off his musical abilities :o)

Friday night we headed to the Hackenbergs' house for dinner -- we really loved catching up with this wonderful friends and letting Graham and Moses play together!
Hannah with Kate
Saturday was a fun and busy day! Bernie took us to Wheaton Regional Park for a picnic, carousel (Graham's first ever!), and train ride!! Mitch, Jackie, Chelsie and Joel were able to come out too!
Uncle Mitch with the boy cousins :o)
Smile fast!!
Graham and Joel made good use out of the train hats that Granddaddy got Graham in Virginia (we ended up with two after thinking one was gone forever at a Chick-Fil-A... nope! Just hiding in the car). The boys were ready for the train!!
All aboard!

Saturday night all of the Davidson siblings came together for a match up between JMU and Maryland (mine and Nat's alma maters). They never play each other (they're in different leagues) so we were super excited to actually be in Maryland on a night that they were.
Go JMU Dukes!!!
We love each other even though we were rivals for the night :o)
Todd, Chelsie (and baby girl coming soon!), Bridgette, Me, Nat, Mitch, and Jackie!
The last play of the game... Maryland won in overtime, 35-38 with a field goal. Such a close and fun game!!
Playing in the yard with Aunt Bridge (although Graham for some reason calls her Uncle Bridge!)
The Davidson (and Geary) Clan: Todd, Chelsie, Joel (and baby girl), Jackie, Mitch, Bernie, Dudley, Nat, Graham, Me, Kate, Randall, and Bridgette... whew! That's a lot of family!
Joel and Graham
Sweet Kate
Graham having fun with Uncle Mitch and Jackie!
Mariah and her boyfriend Evan came up to Maryland so that we could meet him and see her one more time before we came home to Texas! A sister picture plus my babies :o)
Mariah, Evan, and Kate!
Tuesday night we had another family night (minus Mitch who had to go back to Nashville) up at Todd and Chelsie's. Goofing off with homemade pizza faces!!
Yummy dinner... thanks Chels!
What visit is complete without a cousin bath? This time next year there will be four in the tub!
Bella needed some cuddle time too... thank you for having us -- we had a ball!
