Over Thanksgiving I flew out to Virginia to see my son and his family. It was a cold autumn day when David took us hiking at Ft. Belvoir, where he works. That would be me followed by my granddaughter Eva!
The sight of falling leaves and clouds makes me so happy. Here I got both.
One morning we drove out to Great Falls Park in Virginia. On the way we stopped to get this shot of the Potomac River.
The magnitude and the majesty of the falls was way more than I had ever expected. It took my breath away to be surrounding by such beauty.
I love to be with my son David and daughter-in-law Lindsay as well as my granddaughters Eva and Leven. They are always so wonderful to me and take me to the most beautiful places and serve me the most delicious meals. Lindsay's gingerbread cookies are my fave, and soon she will be making Ninjabread man cookies....
We climbed all over the rocks and walked along the river, exploring all the nooks and crannies.
Now doesn't that look fabulous!
Me with my awesome family.
Eva jumped up on boulders, climbed up walls and was as nimble as a little cat.
Me and David looking over the edge.
Yes that is a kayaker bombing the river. I was shocked to see so many kayaks out on the river, shooting down the waterfalls and racing down the ice cold river.
A peaceful moment on the river.
I did my best to keep up with the kids but believe me it was not easy.
My little Eva, pretending she is a dinosaur. I will miss you all so much.
