my labor day weekend...

so, in addition to having my car looked at, i had a whole weekend full of fun...

Saturday, when i got back from TN, my brother, Nick, and i went to damascus to check out james' creation... he's opened a coffee shop!!! it's a neat little place, and i hope he does well... the scones were sooooo yummy, and the raspberry chocolate coffee was tastey too... i have some pictures on my phone, but i'm not sure how to get them onto my computer, but once i do, i'll put up some pictures... and if you're ever in damascus, VA you should stop by for some yummy goodness...

and sunday was the Fields Family Reunion... it was a good time... i hadn't been in a few years, so it was good to see everyone again... my mom has been put in charge the past few years, so i got to help her make a trivia game for the family... it was fun learning family history and sorts... and everyone voted that next year, we have the trivia again...

monday it was time to drive back to MD... but not before another trip to the coffee shop (had to get another scone)... and then to visit my grandma... she gave me a whole grocery bag full of grapes picked from the vine that morning... they are so delicious!!! when i have a house, i'm going to have a grapevine... just like hers... she also gave me a loaf of homemade banana nut bread to take to chris... hehe... i dont' know that i'll have room in my carry-on for the whole loaf, but i'll take him as much as i can...

and the drive back wasn't nearly as terrible as the drive to SWVA...

so that was my holiday weekend...

Well, I can add that to the list of sights to visit when we bring Paul to see all the family Duncan!

I'm always up for a new coffee/pastry shop - do they deliver???
