Adam's cousin Brian got married to his lovely wife, Jami, on August 8th, and their parents had a reception for them this past weekend at their home.
We really enjoyed getting to spend time with our newly weded cousins and our soon-to-be parents cousins.
It was also fun to see all the aunts and uncles together again. The Herndon clan always has such a great time together.

Here's the happy couple.
Congrats guys!
We are looking forward to spending more time with you back in Hampton Roads.
A shot of the happy couple celebrating their new home! 
It was a lovely evening with her and Will. I just can't believe that my baby sister is off to college!! I can't wait to hear all about the great things that are in store there.
He's already been very productive in his new space creating sermons and getting organized for this upcoming year. He's been collecting artwork and various items for a future office for some time now and it was very exciting to see it all in its perfect place!
Here I am a very happy wife meeting my husband at the airport after being apart for two and a half months, long enough! I'm SO excited he's home!
Doesn't he look handsome in his uniform!! That's my handsome airman!
That night we stayed in Downtown Norfolk and celebrated our 3rd anniversary with a delicious sushi dinner followed by a walk along the water at waterside, which we hadn't done since our first date. It was a sweet moment six years later. Sometimes I can't believe we've been together that long because time has just flown by, especially these past three years!
After shots...beautifully organized! Anna worked on the living room while I worked on the kitchen. We accomplished a lot while there.
A new, happier kitchen complete with new, working fridge and now clutterfree.
Here I am with my childhood friend, Marissa and her new baby.
Then Joann, John, Taylor and Jack met us Saturday afternoon for some more shopping and dinner in SoHo.
Sunday morning we had breakfast with my aunts, uncle and cousins on my dad's side. It was great seeing everybody especially since we hadn't all been together since my wedding. Boy does time fly!
While Anna and Will did tons of siteseeing since Will had never visited New York, my mom and I spent the afternoon in Central Park, which I had never been inside. It is a beautiful spot and I can't wait to go back and spend time there with Adam.
To finish off the night, we sang happy birthday to Anna with a pizza pie since Sunday was her actual 18th birthday.
Here's the surprise moment. She had just come from Jone's Beach and had NO IDEA!
Four generations of cousins, my mom's, our older cousins' (Linda, Barbara and Joann's), mine and my sister's, and Madeline's (Joann's youngest daughter)...and her nanny, Anna.
Anna and her honey, Will, celebrating and meeting lots of family!
My sister wanted a gold fish for her college dorm room, so I got her the bowl, fish food and red gravel to match her room's decor as well as a fake fish since I figured it would be hard to get a real fist back home to Virginia. If she decides a real fish would be too much to take care of at least she has a fake one that is cute in the meantime.
And of course, no eighteenth birthday is complete without playing the loto. So I bought her scratch tickets. I think she won her first dollar!
Time for cake! No better cake than Mario's Bakery.
We enjoyed wine tasting with Celeste's mom at a couple of the wonderful vineyards the Charlottesville area has to offer followed by a Tastefully Simple party back at Celeste's place. I am so glad I will be close by to visit, especially since Celeste hopes to be expecting in the near future.
