Hooray for college roommates! My best friend from college, Mel, came to visit with her 4 boys. Strange how we both ended up with 4 boys. I wish we stayed in better contact, but it honestly felt like no time had elapsed (even though it has been 13 years and 4 kids later!) The kids played great and we even ventured to the National Zoo together.
Hello.
We keep getting so lucky to see the apes cross the ropes throughout the zoo.
Hello.
Xander's puppy home. Playing 'puppy' is the #1 activity at our house.
David saw some shish kabobs at our grocery store and suggested I buy some when I went shopping next. I checked them out and found their $9/lb price tag to be ridiculous. So with a few ingredients and marinade - wallah! We made our own. So beautiful and so delicious!
We were fortunate to enjoy our annual Memorial Day trip to Virginia Beach. We stay at an awesome Marriott right on the beach for $90. Every year I'm afraid it will be the last year for this great deal...so we will enjoy it while we can! This year had absolutely amazing weather - 80's...not too hot, not windy, just perfect!
The bravest of the Svir boys...Declan enjoying some body boarding.
Easton found this dead stingray. Honestly it was the worst smelling thing I have ever had to smell. Just the thought of it makes me disgusted...again.
The cool park at Mt. Trashmore.
Declan conquered the climbing tower first.
The boys love the hotel pool. No sharks or unidentified objects!
Easton, Cache, and Declan chasing the waves.
Xander looking on.
If you click on this picture and make it bigger...look over my shoulder in the ocean.
I'm hoping that fin is a dolphin fin and not anything else!
Maybe we will be lucky enough to find a random photographer
that can take a straight picture next time.
