Spring Break - Weekend #1

It is our first official Spring Break.  Lily had an entire week + extra day off.  If I would have been thinking we could have went off someplace warm.  But D.C. should be sufficiently warm this time of year.  At least enough to get out and enjoy the beach a little.  WRONG answer!  It snowed the first weekend (March 22-23).  But we had a great time anyhow.  We invited our friends the Kangs to go with us.  They are a wonderful Korean family that moved into our neighborhood.  We have dinner a lot together and thought a weekend at the beach would be fun.  At first we thought they would have 6 people joining us.  But a couple days before they asked if it was o.k. to bring 8 people.  You know us, we are flexible, so sure... no problem.  Then the day of... the number grew to 10 people (plus the three of us).  Now, we have enough beds to actually sleep 12 if you use the pull out couch so we thought we would manage.  The first night was an adventure, but we had a bed so we didn't care who was sleeping where.  However, the next night... two more people got invited.  How, I do not know... now we had 15 people all together.  It definitely made for a fun adventurous long weekend.  The food was interesting.  Two nights of Korean and one night of some excellent Italian.  I cooked all the breakfasts and honestly thought I brought too much food until I started cooking for 15 people.  Yes, I went through eggs like nobodies business.  But it was all great times!

Lily is still boy crazy.  She loves the 12 year old boy, Bryant, and the friends he brought along.  She was flirting all weekend long and of course the boys flirted right back.  So funny to watch.  Hopefully she grows out of this phase soon or her father is going to have an early heart attack.











Zoo time

We finally got a nice enough day to hit the zoo.  Lily has a great friend Lluc who we often hang out with his family.  We had fun going out to lunch together and then hitting the zoo.  The weather turned out perfect too.


 Lily and Lluc could not decide who got to ride in the stroller so they decided they would both fit.  Not very well I must admit, but they still had a fun time.  Also notice Lluc's hat in the pictures.  It is actually Lily's but Lluc insisted it was his to wear for the day.  Too much fun!

Fantastic March

It has definitely been an eventful March.  Every weekend we have had fun things to do.  So fun that again I forget to post all our events.  But I will catch up here a bit.  The first weekend in March we had a fun filled party weekend.  Lily got to go to her friend Sasha's birthday party at the bowling alley.  Watching three and four year olds bowl was definitely fun.  All the parents were wonderful and we had a great time.  Then after we went to some other friends for a wine party.  All the kids stayed upstairs and had their own party of course.  It was a great weekend.
