Fall...in July?!

This has been one HOT HOT HOT summer.  Record temperatures and humidity that has had my hair in full on fro-mode!  However a few weekends ago we got a much needed reprieve and a preview of the crisp fall temperatures that will hopefully be here to stay in a month or two!

We were camping at Pohick Bay and while we had a bit of rain during the day, that didn't stop us from throwing on sweatshirts, burning fall scented candles (I couldn't resist!) and enjoying a few games of Mexican Train dominoes while Adam napped. 

Adam enjoyed being able to play outside without sunscreen or rosy cheeks and it reminded me of how cute he is in his jeans and sweaters. He also enjoyed watching coverage of The Open.




The plan had also been to have Andy's family over for a great birthday celebration for Ommy.  Unfortunately the drizzles we experienced all day turned to heavy down pours and we lost power somewhere along the way.  Of course that didn't stop us from enjoying a great dinner and ice cream cake for dessert.  Besides, the candles on the cake served as great lighting (ha!) ;)  I wish I had gotten more pictures of the celebration, but just know that it was wet, it was muddy, but it sure was a lot of fun!  Happy birthday Oms!
