Liam still has a couple of years to wait, but Thea only has a couple
of weeks. She is so excited!

4th o July bubble blowing

July 4th at E's

The kids love to go to E's house. and her 4th of July Crab/BarBQ is
their favorite. Liam ate about 6 Crabs (he loves beating on them with
the little wooden hammer). Thea likes playing in the finished attic
movie room.

Sad that Miss Kosiwa is gone

Thea's daycare teacher moved to Canada last week. i meant to post this
picture then but i forgot. She is an awesome teacher and we wish Liam
would be getting the benefit of her wonderful care before he leaves
daycare. But alas she is gone. Here she is on her last day with Liam,
Thea, and friends Thalia and Ashley. We miss you Miss Kosiwa!

Thea at Wheaton Regional Park

Liam got on the elephant's back too, but my wife got that picture on
her phone. The kids had a blast in the park, riding the train and the
carousel, and having pizza and cake at a birthday party for Pierce,
son of our friends Julia and Brandon.

Van Der Graff Generator

a British progressive rock band with a German name. They shredded a
set last night in Falls Church, Virginia at the State Theatre.
Amazingly powerful and majestic, beautiful and evocative.
