Visiting the Falls with Uncle Philip

Philip came down for the weekend and we went to Great Falls Park on Saturday.  Tyler just loved having Uncle Philip here and was constantly by his side.
Great Falls Park is about 10 miles from our house and yet we had never been there before.  It was really nice and I left feeling like I wanted to go back to see more of it!  This is a shot of the falls from one of the scenic overlooks.  This is the Potomac River.  We were standing on the Virginia side, but the land right across the Potomac is Maryland.
 
We tried getting a family shot and were somewhat successful.
 
Tyler's reaction to seeing the falls was "Oooooooh."
We enjoyed a picnic in the park before heading home.
Brennan played a little football with Uncle Philip, which was a nice distraction from the garage clean-up project that Brian had hooked Philip into helping with.
All Brennan really wanted to do was tackle Brian and Phil. We had a great weekend with Uncle Philip!

I don't know why this is, but Tyler looks so grown up in these photos to me. WOW!! What a beautiful place, too. We sure do miss you guys. It has been a crazy summer, and now we'll have to contend with the school calendar, but we hope to work out a visit soon!
