So my friends and family can be up on life here in GR

'But be sure to fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you.'

Perfect Springtime

We've come to the conclusion that no one does perfect Spring weather quite like Washington DC. Simply pleasant. Being from here and going there in April is like fast forwarding a month of time.
Peter and I flew out last weekend, it had been a year since Peter had seen any of them, and it was good to catch up!

We started things off with Saturday morning soccer, all the fans were out!

 Rita was a star and her team had a convincing 7-0 win!

 Saturday afternoon brought Little League for Sam

And a fashion clothes swap for Andrea and me


 For dinner we went to the famous 29 Diner, the juke box was a huge thrill!




 And the food. Oh my! the food!

Clara was taken with talking to herself on the phone :)

My phone regularly gets absconded while visiting, it was locked, but the camera was still available. 

Sunday selfies!


Uncle Peter is a huge hit with his reading, always a gaggle around him

 Sunday afternoon Peter and I headed downtown for a hot date at Ford's Theater. Coincidentally, we visited just 2 days before the 150th anniversary of his assassination. 


 We continued playing tourist by walking the mall and checking out the cherry blossoms


Another absconding of my phone resulted in this:


Monday the kids were off school, we headed to the Native American Museum, the kids hands-on area was very fun and entertaining.

Basket weaving and listening to various bird calls

 Learning about kayaking

Lunch at the Zoo Bar

Afternoon at the zoo, this was the Amazonia - very cool!

Beautiful blossoms were everywhere!

There was a lot of hanging around the house too




It was a busy and fun trip, we're looking forward to seeing you again in June!
