I was so happy to go to Maryland and visit some of my favorite people! Despite the freezing weather and snow, I had a fantastic time. It is so beautiful there with so much history. There is still so much more I want to see and do and can't wait to go back! Thanks Jordan, Kristine and Erin for making my trip so memorable. Especially thanks to Owen for being so adorable and fun!

I was welcomed at the Baltimore Airport by these two handsome boys! They made the long trip well worth it. |

Jordan and Kristine live near the beautiful town of Frederick. There was lots of snow on the ground so I'm excited to go back when the town looks like this! So many quaint little shops. Everything is very historical, which I love!

Dinner at the famous Shake Shack in downtown DC for yummy burgers and shakes
Our last stop was to Georgetown where we waited in line at Georgetown Cupcakes where the TLC show, DC Cupcakes was filmed. Very cute town and the cupcakes were delish! |

Owen playing with the Bat Cave Aunt Megan sent him from his cousins, Jack, Lincoln and Coleman. He loved it! |

Thanks to Kristine I was able to visit Gettysburg, PA, a place I have always wanted to go. It is only 40 minutes from Frederick and such a beautiful drive there and the movie and museum were great. Kristine and Owen both endured my obsession with American history and followed me around while I enjoyed every minute. On the way home we drove through the town of Gettysburg which is so beautiful and restored to its original state. It was a journey back in time for me. Civil War history is so fascinating. We scored too at the outlet mall outside of Gettysburg at the Old Navy outlet! It amazes me that you can drive from state to state in such little time.
It was a special treat to be able to spend time with Erin in Baltimore. We had lunch one day and were able to see her nice new house and of course the pugs. What a treat to be able to spend my last night in Baltimore at the restaurant where she works and have her as our server! She set us up in a private room and served us appetizers, delicious main course of mouthwatering steak and cheese cake for dessert. We were definitely spoiled!

I'm looking forward to another trip back there in the spring to see more sites and especially to see the newest member of the Lewis family! Can't wait.... |
