Meeting Camden

Kait and Chris had their little nugget a few months back, but I haven't been able to visit them until now. I finally got to meet Camden! We visited with Christine and Abby as well, so it was a nugget event! Such heaven. Check these girlies out, so cute:

Group pic! Abby is enjoying herself.

Smiles!

McDonald's Cone, welcome to the family, Abby

Pretty good at eating ice cream

So pumped for this cone

So glad I was able to meet Camden and see Ab-ster again this year! Miss you ladies like crazy!

Christmastime at Home

I was lucky enough to take a really long break at home in Maryland this year for Christmas. I got to see almost everyone I had been missing, albeit for not nearly long enough. Thanks to everyone for making time to see me!

 

First up was a Christmas Eve rondevous with the Devines to meet Kelli's baby, Gregory. I, of course, did not remember to get a pic of him before he went to sleep, but here is his mama and I:

Christmas day with all the Bourne cousins:

Then, I was able to drive up to NJ to see Christine, Ben, Abby, the Noodle, and all the Furgiones! Here is Abby, Teeners and I having fun with my new iPhone camera:

 Favorite niece!

 

 My Noodle!

Extra bonus: Kait was in AC with her fam so we went over to have some lunch with her, Chris, and Camden (due March, yay!):

All of us ladies in Atlantic City after lunch:

After NJ, I was able to make a trip into the city to see my fave lifeguards, but I haven't seen any pics from Miss Grace, so I'll have to add to this post soon! So happy to see everyone for the holidays, miss you all already!

Grace and Jameson

A weekend ago I traveled back East for a dear friend, Grace’s, wedding. She was married in the lovely Eastern Shore town of Chestertown. The ceremony, setting, and of course the bride were all perfect! I had an amazing time celebrating Grace and Jameson as well as catching up with some of my favorites, Meredith and Hannah (I also got to swing by and see Christine, Abigail, and the Noodle, score)! It was a whirlwind weekend, but definitely worth it to see all those ladies in one weekend. Here are some of my fave pics from the wedding:

My fave bridesmaid, Meredith:

 One last walk with her daddy as a single lady:

Married!

First dance:

My favorite part is seeing the wedding cake! I give Grace mad props for this beautiful and yet still fun design! Oh and no fondant, extra bonus points!

The groom's cake (he's a Giants fan obvi):

Check out the veil!

There were quite a few dance circles that developed during this wedding:

A boat full of beer!

At the after party with my roomies for the night:

Had so much fun visiting with my Marylanders! Wish the weekend wasn't so short!

Visit Home Over the 4th

I decided to take a long weekend over the 4th to visit the family in Maryland. It was awesome and I got to see most all of the family between Sam's graduation party (congrats lady!) and hanging at the house. I was also able to see a couple of friends but majorly failed at picture taking. It was an excellent trip home, I forgot how much I love MD and DC in the summer (last summer we went to AZ for the summer family rendezvous). Here are the few pictures I managed to take:
Grandpa, Mom and I about to dig into some MD blue crabs!

All finished, feeling unsettlingly full but happy!

Picture with both the grandparents before I leave :)

Next trip I promise to be better with the camera! Miss everyone so much!
