Taylor Team 5 Visits Durham

Our home was filled with wonderful chaos this past weekend as Graham entertained his cousins from Maryland. Pete and Michele brought the girls on a surprise trip to North Carolina on Friday, sharing news of the excursion with Emily, Lindsay and Madelyn as they woke them up that morning.

Everyone visited my office on Friday afternoon; the girls photocopied their hands, and then we headed to lunch to kick off our weekend together. We stayed active on Saturday with a trip to the UNC-Maryland field hockey game. There was a party for kids beforehand and a clinic for them afterward. Emily learned firsthand from members of the No. 2 ranked Tar Heels team after their 2-1 victory.

On Saturday night, we celebrated the Maryland Taylors' second-place finish in the 2011 Great American Tobacco Duck Race at Tyler's in Durham. Among the prizes for that strong showing was a $50 gift certificate for dinner. It still pales in comparison to the duck trophy, if you ask me.

Here are some photos from the weekend.
