Mimi and Julia's Visit!

We love going up to Jersey, but we love having our family stay with us too! The Jett's and the Killion's met up in Delaware and we took Mimi and Aunt Julia back to Germantown with us. On our first morning together, we drove to Cunningham State Park to hike up to the falls. (The girls and I did this earlier in the spring with some friends from our ward.)
Mom and Julia in front of the falls. They loved the falls and the hike!
The girls wanted to relax on the bench.
Julia had to jump into the stream!
Lizzie and Cate remembered the flat rock from last time, so that's where we hung out while Julia walked in the stream.

We went to the pool when we returned to G-town. The water felt so good!
On the morning of the 4th, we went to our ward breakfast. Julia managed to snap a picture of some of the kids! I guess Cate didn't want to get her picture taken ;)
After the breakfast, we went to Hagerstown to check out some outlet deals. The girls found a ride there!
I'm so mad that I didn't take any pictures of our pizza/BBQ party at the Morgan's, but I have to say it was a blast! Such good food...great company...fun games for the kids...what a party. Thanks Morgan's for hosting! At the party, we decided we'd go downtown to see the fireworks with the Cleaves', the Heit's, the Morgan's, and the Stake's. We are so happy we made that decision. We LOVED it! The kids had so much fun together!
We HAD to get pictures in front of the Washington Monument.
Right above the Potomac and the Washington Monument, the fireworks were truly incredible.
We went swimming every day that Mimi and Julia were here. It sure was nice having extra hands to help me at the pool!
We definitely miss having Mimi and Julia around. We loved having them here and we look forward to another visit :)
