West Virginia

At the end of August, we all headed out to West Virginia for a family friend's wedding (very brotherly to me and my brothers). It was awesome to be with the entire Marsteller family and their extended family.
This is a family we share a lot of childhood memories with. We would head down to San Diego every summer and spent the week swimming in their pool and playing together. 3 kids in their family, 3 kids in ours. We always had the best time.



One of my favorite things about the weekend was having all of our kids play together and seeing that they were EXACTLY us growing up when we got together. No tattling. No whining. Lots of laughing. Lots of running. They only came to us when they needed food or something to drink or permission to do something. We would see them in flashes running by every now and then. It was really very cool.
West Virgina is beautiful. I have never been there before and I loved walking around the West Virginia college campus. It was the first week of school, so the place was bustling. Brian and Katie and both professors at the school, so the ceremony was in the church on campus.
We had a wonderful time. Josh stayed an extra day with my family to head to Baltimore see the Orioles play. The kids and I had to get back for school. They are good flyers/travelers.

Cheers to the Marstellers! Can't wait for our next reunion.
