Making the Most of NYC

We packed in a bit more adventure during our New York trip, including eating some local favorites – pizza and bagels! The National Museum of Math was our last attraction, and quite a fun one. We’ll be back again asap!

Father’s Day in the Big Apple

With a great first day under our belt, we went for an even better one given it was Father’s Day. That meant a major tourist site, some delicious BBQ, and a day ending with chocolate. A great way to celebrate our #1 dad!

NY, NY!

The boys ventured to NYC for the first time and had a great time in the Big Apple. We saw major sights, ate great food and explored during a beautiful summer weekend. Our first day was a lot of firsts, including first Amtrak ride, first (off) Broadway show and first visit to Times Square!

On to Kindergarten!

The time had come to graduate from Senior Casa at Vinci as O prepares for kindergarten in the fall. O and his classmates put on quite a show, with a graduation march, reenactment of the Hungry Caterpillar, a short dance number and then graduation awards.

A Different May 5K

While the Fiesta 5K was still virtual this year, half of the family participated in another one – the Glebe 5K! Colin got a personal best time and placed 5th among the 9 year olds running. Megan was glad to finish and wasn’t too far from a personal best. Both couldn’t walk the next day,…
