Here’s Declan leaning over the floating dock trying to scoop up fish, crabs and shrimp with his little net.
Amazingly, he didn’t fall in. Though I can’t say the same for his net. Actually, it didn’t fall in either. But it was thrown in. Thrice.
We all went to the Virginia Aquarium on Sunday. Lots of awesome stuff to see there – sea turtles, birds, sharks.
We were there for several hours and spent most of the time in the Little Builders exhibit – which had nothing to do with wildlife, marine or otherwise. But there were blocks, hammers, pulleys, cranes, conveyor belts. Very fun. But kinda dark and I couldn’t get Declan to sit still in his hardhat and reflective vest for a good photo. Sorry.
Kaleigh headed back to school and work, driving herself in her new car, loaded up with clothes and with a bike on the back rack.
I, being a dorky dad, was nervous about her making the trip without a copilot, but of course she made it no problem. She told me today she hasn’t driven her car since she went back and has done all her traveling by bike. That’s my girl! We miss her already.
So amazing to have all three kids together. She took these pics:
Oh, you know the photo of Declan naked with a monkey around his neck is gonna mysteriously appear when he’s in high school. Bet on it.
Ponies came to Western Day at school last week:
Elsie didn't ride. She's too little, according to Declan.
And Amy met her friend Tammy at a play area in a mall in Norfolk – good to get the kids out of the house without going into the heat and wildfire smoke.
They had a blast. I mean, who doesn't love giant hot dogs and lady bugs?
