8 year anniversary trip to Virginia

 We had a ton of fun at the Wintergreen Cabin in Nellysford, VA

 We got to go to a beach and a pool

 Having fun while waiting for our pizza (so good! take that Carnival!) with his new handmade toy

 We ate some great food but this was not one of the places... Blue Ridge Pig was random and gross

 More weird decorations but still smiling

 Day trip to Charlottesville

 Such a cute town. Also enjoyed the trolley ride through UVA

 Enjoying people watching at our great breakfast spot

 Our hike

 Getting ready for a super steep climb!

Cute boys!

Lake Lure, NC family vacation

  Happy 1st Birthday, Jason!

 Why is everyone clapping?

 Special card from Anya

 Chocolate cupcakes

Speaking of a year old... At Jason's 12 month appt he was 23lbs and 14oz (85%), 31inches for height (89%), and head circumference of 19inches (96%)

 Grandma got the special cupcake with some exciting news! Little girl on the way!

 He made this face with every bite of a the pickle but kept wanting more

 UNO never ends

 Hanging out at Chimney Rock

 Spent a lot of time like this at the lake and the lazy river

 Great breakfast spot

 The cousins :)

 Thanks for a great trip, Grandma and Pop Pop!

May trip to NY for Caryn's wedding

 Jason likes to pretend he's on the phone

 Wagon ride from Pop Pop

 Enjoying the soft grass

 West Meadow Beach!

 Nana, Grandma and Buddy

"I wonder how many hours mom spent at the beach instead of in class..."

 One of Mommy's old beach buddies, Rebecca, and her son Alexander

 Jason was excited to meet a little man like himself

Resting from a busy day

Well, we were all feeling sorry for Daddy who was home all alone... until we came across these NASCAR pictures. In a sky box and in the pit? What the heck!

He gets better every day

Walking

Happy 1st Birthday Jason!

Enjoying his first taste of frozen yogurt. This is what sugar tastes like?
