Lunch with O

Not the best lighting, but the boys were having fun waiting for lunch to come.

Bicycle rack cuteness

He was just really cute playing on this bicycle rack.  Andrew started snapping pictures and here are a few for the wall.

The Ride

Cheering on the family at the finish line. 

Shrine Mountain

We saw lots of dogs on this trail.  Arthur liked to wave to them, but not to the people.

Cycling

Here is Arthur trying out his new balance bike with Baba. He's all geared up in team colors.

Hallelujah Nature Trail

Here we are at the top of the chairlift on Copper Mountain.  

A stick picture for Grandma, but he was more into the rocks this day.

Rock video

Here is Arthur starring in his first rock video.

Chair lift

Here we are going up the chair lift up at Copper Mountain.  Mom and dad were scared to death, but Arthur loved it.  Then he got to check out one of the big trucks on top of the mountain.

Fort McHenry

We stopped by Baltimore to see Daddy's good friend Nick and his wife Alysson.  We visited Fort McHenry and heard the star spangled banner a whole bunch. 

Washington Monument

We trekked past the Washington monument and down to the Lincoln Memorial. Here are a few shots from the walk

Carousel

The carousel on the mall went like twice as fast as the one at our zoo.  It gave Daddy a scare trying to keep Arthur on.

The Smithsonian

Here is Arthur checking out the Natural History Museum  ("Rocks!") and the portrait gallery.

The 4th in DC

We watched the parade, toured the mall and came back for fireworks in the  evening.

Camden Yards

We went and saw the Os beat the Rangers after a rain delay. Arthur got a picture of The Bird mascot since it was his first time visiting.

Discovery

Here we are in the space area of the museum.  The space shuttle is much bigger than I realized.

Air & Space Dulles

This is a part of the air and space museum that is out by the DC airport.  It was really cool.

Mommy tried to talk him into a space shuttle, but Arthur wanted the SR71 spy plane.

Swimming in South Carolina

Here we are in somewhere South Carolina.  We stopped for lunch and  saw a park on the lake. First Arthur played on the playground and then he and Daddy went swimming. The water was really nice and warm.  And the beach glittered.  Arthur spent a lot of time testing whether pinecones would float.
