Also in June, Katie signed up for a soccer camp which made us happy. We think she'll enjoy soccer but her first experience a few years ago did not go well. Some of the games they played scared her (like trying to sneak up and grab the soccer balls from the "Sleeping Giant"). But she had a great time at this camp and may sign up in a league this fall!
The kids enjoy a refreshing beverage during my company's annual boat trip up the Potomac River. It was a hot day but the lemonade helped.
The kids pose with their friend Olivia in front of the boat. Peter is giving her a stern look because she was originally standing next to him but decided she'd rather stand next to Katie. Peter didn't like that and ended up moving next to Olivia.
The kids enjoy a musician in Old Town Alexandria. He gave them shakers to play during his song.
Peter goes to sleep while hugging the balloon animal the balloon guy in Old Town made for him.
