Mom comes to town, earthquakes and baseball games

My mom got to come in town last week, which was so fun.  She was in town for about 5 days, and we made those days count.  We went to Old town Alexandria to get some delicious salt water taffy and lunch, we went shopping, we went downtown, we went to Annapolis to go swimming, we played cards, and made dinners and exercised. We went on a fun nature walk type hike also in Virginia.  It was so fun  to have her around for the week!        
 Here they are in Old town
Madison helping Bryan play cards (it worked well, he won!)

We also got to take Madi to her first baseball game.  It was the Nationals vs. the Diamondbacks.  She loved it, we loved it, it was a nice night. 



 After the game Madi crashed!
And lastly, we felt our first EARTHQUAKE yesterday.  It was kind of wild.  For me it sounded like someone was moving a HUGE piece of furniture and I was thinking what is that? Then the whole house started to shake. Then I think I started to shake! It ended up being minor, but it was a weird feeling at the time not knowing how bad it could be, and having no control over it.  Bryan was having a consent signed by a patient during it.  There was a little damage around the area, this is one house we saw.  The temple spears fell off because of it.
