I was just down in that area and my daughter took me to the Jinny Beyer studio. The address is 776F Walker Road, Great Falls, VA 886-759-7373. I had a blast!!

I would love to meet up with you again for lunch or something, but you are 3+ hours from me. I have sooo much to do when I get back that I think hubby will be sleeping alone for a while since I will be doing some marathon sewing for Christmas. Then we pack up again to head back out here to Alabama for Christmas. We decided it would be better for us to come here instead of Lauren and Donny having to tote babies to us. Babies still dont' like their carseats, but are doing better. Flying is getting too expensive, so it's easier for us to come here.

We would pay for mom to fly to us rather than us try to go to her when the girls were little... much easier and cheaper.

We paid for Lauren and the babies to come out here, which wasn't bad, but the prices for tickets are getting awful at the moment.
We pack back up and will leave out to Alabama again around the 20th, I think. Need to be there for babies 1st birthday
