Happy Bday to me!
Dave took me to see my first Cirque du Soleil performance of "OVO" at the National Harbor. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! Spellbinding! Riveting! That's the best way I can describe it!

Road trip to South Carolina
We had to take the kids to "SOUTH OF THE BORDER" on the way down south - this tacky, famous junk stop was a nice little break on our drive to South Carolina to the Santa Rita family reunion.

2010 Summer: Sabrina at Summer Camp
Sabrina went away for a week at summer camp at Mt. Aetna with her friend Dani, who came all the way from Guam. The girls started planning this 3 years ago when we were at family camp together at Camp Au Sable in Michigan.Nate was so sad to see his Sissy go, and kept asking when she was coming home all week long. It was a nice reunion on Sunday when we picked her up, though she's missing her new friends and counselors today!
2010 June: Swim Class
What a difference a year makes! Nate took swim classes for a week and made a lot of progress as his fear seems to have vanished since last summer. He woke up early every morning, put his bathing suit on right away, and couldn't wait to get to class.
Father's Day 2010
Father's Day started out with our traditional breakfast in bed, then we met up with the Woosters in Rockville at the FIRST WATCH cafe for breakfast. After that, we headed to Hagerstown to take Sabrina to summer camp for the week.
2010 June: Ramirez Visit
Our good friends, the Ramirez Family arrived from Guam on June 14. They are visiting us in Maryland for a few weeks and it's been a party every day and night since they arrived!

Uncle Burton
Though the event has come and gone, I want to highlight my Uncle Burton's TV spot promoting the jazz festival in the San Diego area on Memorial Day weekend. Someday, we will get out there to see the festival ourselves. "Unca B", remember the little people!

Deer Dash at Deer Crossing
Sabrina's been wanting to do this family 5k race at her school for years now, so we finally did it. The kids had been participating in Running Club during recess to prepare for the race, and were really excited about it. The Jacobs decided to join us as well. Afterwards, we enjoyed a 2 hour lunch at PF Changs with a big chocolate cake "The Great Wall" at the end as our reward, or to completely cancel out the exercise effect, however you choose to see it!
Why the school is named DEER CROSSING
I don't care how long we live here, I hope we never get tired of looking out the window and seeing the deer. Most people around here don't like them because they eat all of the plants (or our bird food, right out of the can), but we get a thrill every time we see them and feel like we're in a park.
