Washington DC

This year David's company sent him to DC for training. I decided not to go with him this time since Bohdan would be tagging along if I went. But he had tons of fun seeing all the sites and meeting up with a good college friend who is attending GW working on his PhD. Go Jared! In the few days David was there he was able to see the monument, the White House, the capital building, David in front of the White House. Jared in front of George Washington University.

Quartz Creek Camping Trip

We always look forward to camping at Quartz Creek
with David's co-workers and this year was not a disappointment!
We play pinochle, horse shoe, go on bike rides, play guitar,
play badmitton, frisbee, and eat lots of food.
Here's our family all squished in one tent. David and I have the air matresses on the left,
while Bohdan has his pack-n-play and the kids right below him.
We like a tight fit in order to keep us warm at night.
Shira is our flower girl.
Bohdan is such a chum!
Asher and his feather.
Shira & mom making smores!
Horse shoeing is a must at these camping trips!
Asher injured himself while on a bike ride, so I took over. ;-)
Shira playing in the sand/dirt.

Look! They are actually playing & getting along!
A family shot at Kenai lake, right at our campsite. Gorgeous!
If you are wondering where Bohdan is, he's sleeping.

And David, being the manly man that he is, had to jump in the glacial lake!
I know, crazy!
And thanks to Bikky & Kaori for all these great photos!
This one is my favorite of David's foot.
I love Alaska!
