  • Fountainhead Park

    We frequently passed signs for Fountainhead Park on the way to Burke Lake last year when Parker and I would head to Burke Lake while Skylar was at gymnastics. We finally went there with the paddle boards and checked it out. Nice park, lots of bike trails in additional to a lot of water area to explore. The only negative was there were a ton of rowers and we almost got run over at one point.

  • Algonkian Park

    Chilling in the water with Ellie, Emma, and Preston at Algonkian Park.

  • Egret on creek hike to LakeVale

    Parker and I saw an Egret while hiking between Glencroft and LakeVale. A few times after school while Skylar was at dance I asked Parker what he wanted to do and it was hiking between the neighborhoods.

  • General Silliness: Papi Ring Beak

    I think Skylar was rearranging her mood/message board and somehow what got left was “Papi ring beak” which I’m pretty sure started with “Happy Spring Break”. Regardless, hilarity ensued.

  • Skiing the crud at Liberty

    Welp – 2022 will not going down in the history books as the greatest winter for skiing on the East Coast. Meanwhile our friends on the West Coast had to shut down because the lifts literally got buried. Wow! What a weird year. Ski the East!

  • Slime ASMR

    Skylar and Parker have been watching ASMR videos and anything with a satisfying sound is now “ASMR”.

  • Parker’s perfect bedroom

    Parker spent some time one night setting up the ideal bedroom. $99 per night. Sign up below.

  • Culpeper stars

    In the Fall we visited Culpeper several times and each time on the way back we pulled off the road onto a quiet street and hopped in the back with Parker’s blue blanket, the blue futon mattress, and a sleeping bag and we stared up at the stars.

    We found a cool star app on my phone and could view the constellations. A couple times a car would pass by and everyone ducked under the covers 😉

  • Girl fight

    Checkout Skylar’s fight club. Nobody’s gonna mess with her – unless they want some hugs.
