A Little Road Trip

This weekend we decided to hit the road and get out of town for a few hours. We used to take lots of road trips, but now that gas is so expensive we spend most of our time around Richmond so I was nice to get away. We went to Fredericksburg and walked around the old downtown area. We stopped at a little Irish pub and had fish and chips for lunch. Here are some pictures of Isha waiting for her lunch. Of course when I went to download photos from this weekend I thought I had lots of cool stuff, but all I had was these few of Isha and a blurry picture of downtown Fredericksburg and a headstone from 1752. I didn't post the headstone picture because it seems a little creepy to have that on your kids blog. After we got home from Fredericksburg, Isha took a nap and then we were off to the The Nile to have Ethiopian food for dinner. The food was amazing and Isha even had some of the chicken! We will definitely be heading back to this restaurant. Sunday we went to brunch with the neighborhood gang to celebrate a birthday. The amount of food that Isha ate was amazing. Here goes: 1/2 a sweet potato, 3 slices of cheese, 1/2 a banana and 1 1/2 pieces of french toast. I don't know where she puts all of that food. After a busy weekend we settled in to watch a movie and a storm came through. We saw this beautiful rainbow over our neighborhood. It really was this really eerie color outside. Even thought it was after 8pm it was really bright outside and there was this strange orange hue to the sky. None of it fazed Isha, she slept through it all!

It was good to see you all tonight. Mandy and I laughed the whole ride home at the people's reaction after Ish let one fly.

Have a good trip.

Wow! The sky almost looks made up! We had a thunder storm over the weekend here, it made me long for the crazy VA weather!!! As bizarre as it sounds, parts of the weather I really miss a lot!
