We started the morning having the fish the kids caught yesterday for breakfast.  Then it was time to pack up and head home.  It was a long day in the car, but the kids did a great job with it.  We’ve all had a great time, but it’s wonderful to be back home again.

Mira turned 5 today.  We had an awesome day at the beach for her party.  In the morning, her uncle took her and her brother and cousins out fishing.  Mira caught a baby shark!  Xander caught a bluefish!  We spent the rest of the morning playing out in the sound.  Then we came in and [...]

We had a wonderful time with Kate’s parents.  We all met up (that’s Kate and me, her parents, and my parents with the kids) around noon and all went out for lunch together, which was a lot of fun.  My parents headed back to Clinton after that.  Then we spent the rest of the afternoon [...]

So today, Kate and I went and had dinner at GG Cafe. It’s a little Italian place in downtown Leesburg, and it was excellent. It’s a small place, in one of the old buildings downtown. The inside was very nice though. The restaurant is upstairs, and has windows which look out over downtown. The food [...]

Downloaded and installed Firefox 3.0 today.  It certainly seems snappier that the previous version, but that could just be wishful thinking.  I’ll give more reports after I’ve had more time to play with it.

My brother and his wife were celebrating their 25th anniversary this weekend.  They were having a pig picking at the beach.  We loaded up on Friday and headed down for the party on Saturday.  We had a great time.  The food was excellent!  We had a great time playing in the water with all the [...]

It was the kids last day of school today.  They both had a great day.  There were treats and snacks and playing outside with various forms of water.  Mira’s class played with sponges doing different games with them and getting totally soaked.  Xander’s class took a more traditional water gun fight approach to soaking themselves.  [...]

I took the day off from work today to chaparone Xander’s class at the National Zoo.  Kate did the same thing for Mira’s class.  We had a great day!  It was a lot of fun seeing the animals, and even more fun seeing the kids seeing the animals.  We had a great day and I’m [...]
