Hi all!!!
Last weekend we saw "The Sound of Music" at Wolf Trap. We met our friends Ann and Eric there and had a picnic dinner whilst we watched the show. The musical is extremely different from the film! The girl who played Maria was horrible, but everyone else was okay. It was a beautiful night, but very chilly.
The next day we drove to Chincoteague Island for a little getaway. The beach area is a National Park but bikes get in free. We drove to the beach and laid out for most of the remaining weekend. We were able to park on the beach itself, and use our bikes for the rest of our transportation. There was also delicious ice cream and steamed seafood! No ponies, which the island is known for, were sighted as it was late in the season for them. :( However, this was not true for the mosquitoes (who liked Lauren the most!)
No one wanted to come home. It was very relaxing!
This weekend we were fighting off colds, and laid low. We went to the pet shop to look for a kitten for Zach, but none of the animals spoke to him :( It will happen though hopefully by the end of the week.
Zach received his security clearances this past week which is very exciting! Zach also found a blueray version of the BBC's Pride and Prejudice and the colors are incredible! We had no idea how washed out the colors are on the DVD!!!
The weather has turned chilly which has made Zach quite happy and Lauren furious.
No one is really looking forward to the coming week but surely something fun will come our way!
