After we left the beach we headed down to southern Maryland to my grandparent's house for a family reunion. Along the way we stopped in Annapolis and fed the kids lunch and walked around the shops a bit.

I haven't been to my grandparent's house in 7 years, and it was so fun to visit them again. I used to spend a couple weeks every summer with them and I have so many happy memories there. It was fun to show Mark around since he's never been down to visit. We took the kids to Solomon's Island to play on a playground that is just to left of this pier. Needless to say, we had a fantastic view while the kids played.

Tons of family were also visiting my grandparents , some of them I haven't seen in years. Here is my brother, his wife, and their cutie daughter.

Lots of cousins!

My granny and grandpa who happened to be matching that day... both wearing light blue polos and khakis! They are so cute!

This is my mom with her siblings and parents. It's been forever since they've all been together. Oh, and don't forget Cala right in front stuffing cake in her mouth :)

My cousin Barrie and Cala found this turtle in the backyard. Cala wanted to keep it as a pet but luckily we talked her out of that!

While we were there we went to an airshow. My granny was so nice and kept Ethan at home with her, so we just had Cala. Here she is sitting in a Black Hawk helicopter.

Some planes that I can't remember the name of. They were really cool to watch though.

My niece Sonnie, she was adorable in those sunglasses!

The coolest part of the airshow was seeing the Blue Angels. They were pretty amazing! I just couldn't get over how close together they fly!


Cala got a good view of the airplanes from Daddy's shoulers.

It was fun to see family and sad to leave. But at least now we only live a few hours from my grandparents so we're planning a trip to visit them again soon!
