Great Falls and don't forget Wegman's (Day 3)

We had another slow start to our morning but that was okay cause Ryan was out of town so we had no time frame to worry about. Maren and I did a little makeover on Marjie. I think she looked really good, even if she tends to think differently. It was fun to do her hair. I don't think I have ever done it before. Kind of weird. Anyway, Maren and I were both pretty pleased with the outcome of what we did. She is still a little uneasy about the new hair coming in. She actually looks really good we think.

Poor Maren was trying her darnedest to think of things for us to do. With everyone a little under the weather it made it hard to go to very public places. We went to Great Falls. Maren and Ryan love this place. Ryan will take a book and read here, and Maren with nap or people watch. It was beautiful. One of my trips I really need to try to go back in the late Spring early Summer. As of right now I offically do not believe that DC/Virginia has any leafs or greenery of any sort. My sister and mother swear it does but I have yet to see any. Actually I am a sucker for a leafless tree. I actually think it is beautiful. Although, I would love to see it in all of its green splendor. The road driving to great falls is lined with trees like a Forrest only leafy trees and the occasional bamboo? What ever that is about. I remembered the places we drove past from my last visit. There are some amazingly beautiful homes and don't forget my place of employment (someday) the CIA is on this road.

When we arrived at our destination it did look a bit cold, but the waterfall was worth the wind chill. It really was very pretty, even if I can't take a landscape photo to save my life. One thing that was really cool, is the water was so high from that snow storm that hit the East coast that the falls were very rapid. Oh, and incase you miss the sign, it reads "IF YOU FALL IN THE WATER YOU WILL DROWNED!" Nothing like telling it like it is.

Such cute girls.

I love Ellie holding her chin and Lulu just chillin'

Once we were done at Great Falls we headed off to the highlight of Marjie's trip. She has been waiting all week to find the grocery store that Smitty and Ashlee has introduced her to.
Drum roll please...


WEGMAN'S

I really have never seen my mom so excited to go grocery shopping in her life. This was about a 2 hour trip that we took to find this place. It didn't stop her though. When we got there you would have thought she was a kid in a candy store. She kept saying "look at this, over here look at this" It really was hilarious. Maren and me would chuckle and then we got caught up in the excitement. By the time we left we had more treats that an army would need. I think Ryan about passed out when he saw all the bakery items that we got. Really though, we needed to try one of each. I think if Marj could she would get a Wegman's and a Potbelly's to Utah ASAP! I was very impressed with all that they had. Funny part, there was a girl in Wegman's that was just as excited as we were. She started showing us what we needed to get. She has Wegman's Party's with her girlfriends. That just shows how great it was. Elsie was so sick in the store, so I didn't get any pictures in the store. I wish I had.

After Wegman's we went to dinner ant Pei Wei and ordered way too much food. It was good but it was also time to head home. We had exhausted the little sickos. So to bed we all went.
