Brufords Come to Visit



This last week we were able to enjoy a short visit from my parents. My Dad has been doing work for a client in Potomac, MD and it seems that every time we've been down to Virginia we've missed them. When we went down to Ben's parents house for Easter we missed them by just one week but they knew they were coming out again fairly soon, so they booked a small trip on the side to visit us in Rochester. I haven't seen my parents since October (and I wasn't showing at all when they came) so it was fun for them to see me in all my pregnant glory. We did some baby shopping at Babies R Us, Target and got a huge pack of diapers and wipes at Sam's Club. We also got to go to the restaurant behind our house that we've heard about for so long called 2 Vine. We were lucky enough to have gorgeous weather while they were here and Spring was at its peak with all the flowers and trees blossoming. On Thursday we were able to trek out to Palmyra since it's been 36 years since my Mom had been there, and my Dad had never been. Ben and I had a great time with them and we hope they enjoyed their visit out here enough to come back next month when our baby arrives!

We had a wonderful time, you and Ben are terrific hosts! It was great seeing that the pregnancy hasn't slowed you down at all. I'm glad you posted the pictures too. Next time we come to Rochester there will be a little baby in all the pictures and that will be so fun!

We were sad we missed them at the Prince's performance. W/ the Mud's out of town and my mom was helping with a reception I wasn't about to leave my 2 month old with a teenager!! But, our friends who went loved your parents and Natalie and said they talked the whole time. You're looking cute!!
