Cherry Blossom Festival, Washington, DC





The weather was perfect for a day in DC. We took the metro in and went to the Cherry Blossom Festival and the Smithsonian so Peter could see dinosaurs and my mother could see the Hope Diamond. It was very busy in town, but we really enjoyed our day. We didn't get too close the Cherry trees but were still very impressed with their beauty.

CSM Easter Egg Hunt




Peter went to his first ever egg hunt with his friend Claire. He was hesitant at first, but really got the hang of putting eggs in his basket. You can imagine his excitement when he realized there was candy in each egg. He didn't' seem to mind the Easter Bunny either.

Ringling Brothers' Circus




What a great day! We went to the Verizon Center in DC to see the circus. We can now cross it off our list of things to do with Peter. It was enjoyable as we went with our friends Melissa and Larry and their children. We took the Metro into the city and had a really nice day. Peter was a bit tired through the second act, which of course included the tigers and the elephants. If you ask Peter his favorite act today was the motorcycles.

Capital Clubhouse


Yes there is mommy in a picture, and yes she is on ice skates. Which I may point out that I lasted longer than my husband who cried because he had blisters. What can I say Peter takes after his mother a natural athlete with brains.

March Weather


March comes in like a lion and out like a lamb. Peter loves the rain.

Our first true accumulation of snow. Peter and I walked to our local playground with Kahlua. He was so excited as he watched every flake fall from the sky. He enjoyed a snowcone as well on our walk.
