Maryland Part Two

For Mom's birthday dinner we went to a place on the water called Suicide Bridge. I know, sounds funny but this place is amazing. It's casual but nice if that makes sense. The food is amazing. You only know about the place if you 're from around here. You can boat to it. It's just awesome.

First up, gin and tonic and cream of crab on top of Maryland crab soup. 


Dad got baked rockfish with crab imperial. Kevin got the same thing but he got his rockfish blackened. The stewed tomatoes as a side are so, so good.


Mom and I got stuffed jumbo shrimp - it's stuffed with crab imperial. Yes!







It was an easy place to take the kids. They loved it. Matchy matchy. Stay this little forever!





We walked onto the docks after dinner. This is a picture of the restaurant. 



They got to feed the ducks!








There was a pretty crescent moon. It was just a perfect evening in all of the ways. 



Saturday morning early walk near the river. There is water everywhere here. 


More bike riding with Poppa! We kind of just messed around the house on Saturday. Kevin washed my Dad's car and we all hung out. It's nice to just be if that makes sense. Something we rarely do at home. 



Saturday late afternoon we took Kevin to the airport to fly back to Charlotte so he could get our world together there and work some. The kids were soooo sad that we couldn't even stay at the airport to watch him off because Molly Anne wouldn't stop crying - it was kind of crazy. I think we've had a lot of together time so that's what caused it. So we had to rip the bandaid off and leave! 

That night we went to Red Roost to pick crabs. We saw some neighbors there and had the best crabs. It was fun! Both kids had some crab. Grady had a bunch of shrimp too. 

Then night scooting for 5 minutes when they came home to show us their light up wheels!



Sunday we messed around. The kids and I went to Lowes and got mulch to take to the cemetary to clean up that for Mom. Then we picked up my new running shoes and went to the zoo.


The kids love the zoo here. It's really nice and well done. They insist on this picture every time. Kind of cracks me up!


The monkeys were out so that was a highlight!


More bike riding - this time to see how fast he could go down the driveway hill. 


An excursion to ride go karts, trimpers rides and play at the Playland arcade in Ocean City! She could finally go by herself!


She did great and she said she never pressed the break haha!


Grady lovesssss go karts!


Pure joy!



She rode this by herself because Grady wasn't tall enough. 


Swings!




Thrashers and Dumsers occurred of course! 

They read to and with Poppa every night!


Always good to be home home! Many fun memories always and I'm grateful for the time with my parents!
