Although baseball season is nearly over, it was a momentous kick off in April when both boys participated in opening day festivities. The A Nationals and the 50/70 Cubs represented among the Arlington Little League teams that day. Throw in the Oriole Bird and a former O’s player (Mike Bordick), and it made for quite…
A Quick St. Martin Stay
After nearly a week in lovely Anguilla, we spent an overnight in St. Martin before heading back home to reality! We enjoyed the sea and pools once more, and half of us went snorkeling to take in the fish and even a sunken helicopter and other treasures. We walked to the main strip in Phillipsburg…
Fun Off Resort

Seeing The Arsenal
Our soccer-filled weekend in London was only getting started, when the boys ventured to Arsenal stadium just a few stops from our home base. We got to see many places that fans only dream of, and walk in the footsteps of greatness.

DC United!
The family was psyched to be part of DC United’s home opener, having had some initial exposure to MLS soccer the summer before. It was a convincing 3-1 win over the New England Revolution and made for a chilly, but great night out!
Back with the Wolf
We headed back to Great Wolf Williamsburg after a deviation to Maryland and ten years following our first visit. It was a lot more MagiQuest and a little less water park, but no less fun than years’ prior!
