The DOW did what???

Water, water, everywhere

As the temperature hit a sweltering and humid 98 degrees on Saturday, we were hanging out at Andrew Leitch Water Park in Manassas.

The water park was the perfect way to spend a toasty July afternoon. Andrew jumped in the fountains, played under the waterfall, sat on a floating hippo, and slid down the waterslides about fifteen times. Aunt Mary even met us at the park for lunch and a few slip n' slides.

Like Father, Like Son

Some things are genetic. Apparently, the gene for loving spare ribs is dominant.

Having Fun Down on the River

Here are some pics from our trip to Grandma and Papa Gus' house down on the river. Andrew and his cousin, Cameron, had so much fun playing in the river.

On a Date... Sort Of

George and I made a quick trip to Hawaii to receive our household goods and move into our new home. While it was a quick trip filled with unpacking boxes and moving furniture, it was a trip to Hawaii without our lovely son, so to us, it was a mini-vacation. We stayed one night in the Hale Koa resort and this was our view when we woke up in the morning.Here is some video footage of our house once we finished unpacking. We decided to live in Navy housing for this tour. While military housing is not usually known for its beauty, our neighborhood is gorgeous. We love our house and hope everyone books tickets to come visit! The guest room is ready for visitors!

And then, he went to recess. Andrew loves school.
