For the first time in two years, Megan and Brian got away and enjoyed a fall weekend somewhere new – Bedford, PA. We happened to be in town for the big Fall Foliage Festival, but mainly enjoyed the resort grounds and an afternoon in nearby Cumberland. Nothing like sleeping in and no alarms, the crisp…
Fall Ball!
In a season first, both boys hit the diamond to play some fall ball. The Orioles and the Cards battled it out for little league glory, with the boys playing many roles on the field.
Enjoying the VA State Fair
It’s been a while, but we hit the Virginia State Fair to take in all the rides and fair foods you can fit into a half day. We came, and we conquered – hitting all the rides, eating a fair share of treats and taking in a beautiful, sunny day!
Day Out with Thomas
It was our third day out with Thomas, and our first trip with the big Thomas and Friends fan – O! It was our first time meeting Thomas in Strasburg, and the celebration – and the weather – did not disappoint!
A Taste of Fall in Summer

We had them straight off the tree, infused into doughnuts, as apple cider and even hard cider at Carter Mountain Orchard in Charlottesville. Luckily, it wasn’t too too far from our favorite cabin spot in Page County, and made…

Back to School Week!
In just a matter of days, both boys headed to new classrooms for the school year. Colin was back in his school building since March of 2020, and Owen moved on up to the big kids classroom in his school. We hope the excitement continues well into the school year!
Models in OBX
A rare family trip means investing in photos! While the beach was a little windier than we would have hoped, we captured memories to last a lifetime.
A Summer (Af)fair
After a one-year hiatus, the county fair was back in business, and we made it back from North Carolina just in time for the last day! We got our fill of rides, games and treats and promptly collapsed at home.
