Great Falls!






When Grandam Kreutzberg came to visit, we took her to Great Falls in Mclean, VA. The leaves were just beginning to change, so it was beautiful. We took a picnic lunch, saw the falls, and took a walk in the woods. Sarah had fun collecting leaves! Both kids enjoyed running around the park. We all had a great time!

Spa Day!



Mark surprised me with another spa day last Friday! I had a hot stone massage and a deluxe spa pedicure done. I highly recommend both. The hot stone massage was just what I needed for my back and felt really good! The pedicure was great, it was the first time I had dipped my feet in hot wax, my feet felt so good afterwards! The Spa day was defiantly something I needed and enjoyed!

1st Day of School



Sarah started school on September 14, 2009. I can't believe this is her last year of preschool before kindergarten. Sarah loves school! There are 10 boys and 5 girls in her class this year! Sarah has really enjoyed school so far! Enjoy the first day of school pictures!

Ahoy Mates










On Sept 6, 2009,we went to Annapolis, Maryland for the Pirate Adventure. We had beautiful weather to be out on the water. They kids dressed up in pirate costumes and got tattoos painted on them. We learned how to become pirates before getting on the boat to look for the treasures. Sarah really go into helping to find the treasures and Sean enjoyed it as much as he could and then fell asleep, since he woke up too early that morning. We went to Pussers for a seafood lunch and then played on a great playground across the street from the restaurant. We all had a great time! This was our second year doing the pirate adventure and the kids really enjoyed it.

ZOO







Today we took the kids to the ZOO for the day. It was a beautiful day to be at the ZOO, not too hot. There were misters around the ZOO to cool off by, so we enjoyed those. We took a picnic lunch and enjoyed seeing all the animals. We all had a great time!

Rainbows




We had a storm come through on Saturday. After the storm cleared, there was an awesome rainbow, just like the ones we saw in AZ. The rainbow stretched across the entire sky! Enjoy the pictures!

We spent the first week of August with Tutu Phil, Tutu Gail, and Tracy in the Dominican Republic. It was a hot and humid week, but we stayed cool by swimming in the pools and ocean! We had a good time. Enjoy the pictures!
