late holiday visit






we drove to annapolis to visit my cousin's family and my aunt who is now 88 years old. they kept up their christmas decorations as they wanted the girls to see their holiday village and reindeer on the front lawn. we had two wonderful feasts, got caught up on family news, and had a nice hike along the beautiful chesapeake bay. it was very icy and m and c tried to go sledding on my cousin's front lawn, but on sunday the temperature went up and the ice melted a bit too much. we came home on monday and luckily left early enough so that we didn't hit a lot of traffic through the tunnel, and arrived ahead of the snowstorm. i've enjoyed the cold weather this winter and the snow we've had. it's been a little bit at a time, and it's painted our courtyard in beautiful shades of white and grey.
