Labor Day '08

Oh, I love Labor Day Weekend! Food, friends, and in my family's case...birthdays! With the long 3-day weekend and two of my grandparents' birthdays falling close to the weekend, Joe and I journeyed to Pennsylvania to celebrate Pappy's (mom's dad) 65th birthday and Grammy's (dad's mom) 75th birthday. The Smartts' took Grammy out to a nice dinner at South Mountain Inn restaurant on Saturday evening. It was delicious! No one makes a crab cake like a Maryland restaurant. Then on Sunday, Joe and I celebrated with Pappy by going to a music festival at Cacapon State Park in West Virginia. Everything turned out super successful and we had a blast!

P.S. Amidst the birthday parties, Joe did find some time to get a four-wheeler ride in. How country does he look!
