Seattle

On the weekend of September 11th, Papa directed an amazing memorial concert in Mt. Vernon, WA, complete with choir, orchestra, bagpipes, saxophone soloist, children's choir, and military jet flyover (among many other things). It was an amazing show and very moving. We flew up for the occasion and Logan actually sat, mesmerized, for most of the 90 minute show before falling asleep. It was great to catch up with everyone and soak up some Seattle sunshine (it was 85 degrees that weekend!).

Also in August, we rallied the troops for a group camping trip in Tahoe. The weather was great, the kiddos had fun, and the adults enjoyed catching up around the fire.

Washington D.C.

In July, Daddy had to go to D.C. for a work trip. Since mommy and I had never been before, 

we decided to tag along. Never mind that it was 105 degrees and 95% humidity...

we walked and rode the metro all over the place and saw so SO much great stuff.

May I take a message please?
