VA Trip - First Stop

Our first stop on our trip wasn't actually in VA. We stopped to see our friends Hadyn and Samantha in Annapolis, MD first :)

They're the ones that were married in Jackson Hole last fall - remember? So gorgeous.



Anyway. My camera was packed deep in my suitcase so I only used the iphone - apologies for the bad photos.

It only took us 10 hours to get to MD (a quick trip compared to the usual 12 we do to VA). We were only there for about 15 hours but packed in a lot of fun. H & S took us to this restaurant...









to have an Annapolis specialty....



I haven't seen this much food at once since Thanksgiving :)

Appetizers/sides....



The main dish (or half of it).



Neither of us knew how to eat crabs so Samantha had to give us a lesson.





Matt decided to ignore her advice because all he wanted to do was use the mallet.



He ended up eating a lot more crab poop than the rest of us.



The girls' side of the table had more napkins than crab remains.



The boys' side - not so much.



We also celebrated a birthday :)



I didn't take pics that night of our trip to a bar on "ego alley" in downtown Annapolis. Bars in Annapolis are on the water and can be reached by boat - you also stand outside along the water while drinking - adding an element of danger to the normal bar scene....Luckily none of us fell in.

Sadly, we had to leave the next morning but we had fun while it lasted!

Thanks S & H for being such great hosts!

xo.

  1. We had soooo much fun! Thanks for stopping & come back soon! Anyone find it amusing that the girl from a lil town in Wyoming is giving instructions on how to pick crabs?!
