When Jed went to Tech, he lived with 4 other guys on Green Street. Over the past five or so years, we try and all get together every summer. This year we were able to meet up and camp at Claytor Lake State Park. We all camped here last year as well so we kind of knew the drill. This time we got one huge group campsite. We spent our weekend cooking, eating, deep frying all kinds of unique creations, swimming, volleyball and spending time together. This year Mathis & Nicki were able to join us for and afternoon and dinner on Saturday. They have met most of the Green St crew over the past 2 years. After we packed up on Sunday and got our group picture, most of us headed to the Homeplace for one last meal together.

It was so great to be able to take time to catch up with everyone and see how all of the kids have grown. I look forward to this trip every year.
On Sunday evening, we were able to host a "See you Later" party for Mathis & Nicki. Lisa is such an amazing party planner and really made this party amazing. We went with a Texas theme and all the little details Lisa put into it really made it great.
We ended up having a house full of people come and celebrate with us. It was so great to see all the people's lives Mathis & Nicki have impacted here in Virginia. We had such a great time snacking on chili, babecue sliders, corn, chips & an assortment of dips and, of course, cupcakes!
It was such a fun and upbeat way to say, "See you later" to friends that will always be in your life even if they live far away. Good Luck in Texas, Mathis & Nicki. You will be missed here.
