This weekend, Emily and I had the pleasure of hosting Erin. I hate to try to sum up the weekend with lots of gushing and ranting about how wonderful it was, because it just wouldn't quite capture it all. Spending time with Erin was easy and comfortable. Like we'd been doing this for years....old and dear friends.

Saturday, everyone came to Thomas Run and Mama Urchin and her little urchin joined us, as well. We spent a good chunk of the time streamside, and rest of the time standing around the kitchen table munching on bagels and egg salad (what else would you expect from me?).

Saturday evening, Erin, Emily and I spent some time together wandering around the cute parts of Baltimore and stopping for Mexican, the regular routine for me and Emily.

I was sad to see the weekend end. But still hold on to all that was so, so good.
