Over winter break, Andy and his friends bought a camper intending to take a month long camping trip once school was out.

Every bite you take, Tank will be watching you.

               

Here is Bill celebrating his birthday.

   

   

We went boating on the Potomac early in April to see the cherry blossoms in DC.

   

       

Both kids were home for Easter weekend.

We are sure enjoying the Delaware Beach House.

       

       

       

       

Tank just likes chasing sticks in any water.

       

It's even more fun with friends, in and out of the water.

               

       

Wish he could be with us, but Andy is clearly having fun as a counselor at Camp Varsity

       

Alexa enjoyed a trip to the beach with Callie, then went with us the next weekend to North Carolina.

       

   

While we haven't been out as often as last year, we've still had a lot of fun boating on either the Potomac River, Indian River Bay or Falls Lake.  Even better, Tank got to go along with us a couple times.
