We spent two weeks with family this summer… it was great! It was a whirlwind tour of Washington D.C. , Busch Gardens, Jamestown & Williamsburg. There is so much I could say, but I’ll just let our pictures speak for themselves…

I didn’t have allergies ’till I moved to Chattanooga. Ugh.

This past week was a blur…
The garden is ready to be planted (tomorrow, hopefully!)
