Vacation Part 2: Rehearsal Dinner~ Chesapeake City, MD

Rehearsal Dinner was alot of fun! The weather was great, although at the time of day it was at was alittle too hot, but we were thank full for no rain. Chesapeake City is one of the cutest little towns I've ever been to. I want to go back(without kiddos) and have a nice relaxing weekend with the hubs. We ate dinner at a cute little historic restaurant,right on the water and so full of charm, and the food was great!!
The Bride, another bridesmaid, P#2 and myself all stayed the night at the B&B while the boys went home to nervously wait the following day. We Did a craft project, drank alittle wine, and watched a movie. It truly was a great weekend.

Vacation Part 1: Longwood Gardens, PA

This was one of our first sight seeing adventures on our vacation. Longwood Gardens was the personal estate of the Du Pont family that were French emigrates who came to Delaware in the early 1800's. There is a lot of American history within this family and alot that is totally fascinating. You can go here to read more. This place was so beautiful. And it's only one of the many estates that are in the area, all of which have become public gardens.

Weekend in Review: Memorial Day

Memorial Day weekend is usually a fun weekend for us. It's usually spent driving a few hours to see family, or family and friends driving here to see us, or spent doing some fun activity. Not this year. The hubs was horribly sick, and the weather was nasty, real nasty. I felt bad for the people who drive over to this part of the state to go camping because it's usually out of the normal Seattle rain. I spent most of the weekend packing for our vacation and cleaning, which is probably a good thing! I also got to watch some specials on the meaning of Memorial Day, because sometimes we forget. I know alot people just think of it as a 3 day weekend from work, or an excuse to party, but I hope everyone took a minute to remember......

And Thank a troop anytime, not just on a holiday! Go to Pioneer Woman to see some amazing and touching photo's.





And this is what we did when the rain came.....







Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. If you have posted anything about your weekend please share your link, I would love to read it!
