Soccer starts

It's a new season of soccer.  Carl scored, and scored, and scored, and scored.
 Lily did a great job!  This is her first year, and she said, "I love playing, not just watching."

East Coast...here we come

We had a few sunny days at the Russian River.


 And then off to the East Coast.  We stayed with Grandpa first, and the kids and I went to Philadelphia.
 Cheese steaks and Chicken & Falafel Salad
 The squirrels and birds loved us!

 Independence Hall

 We loved walking the cobblestones to Ben Franklin's house.
Declaration of Independence printing...we bought one here.
 Philadelphia Mint
 Ok...the BEST mocha I've ever had.  They don't sweeten it.  Deliciousness at La Colombe.
 Cheesesteaks at Sonny's
 And Frozen Yogurt/Shakes for the kids
 Liberty Bell and Independence Hall
 Blueberry Picking
 Grandpa's house
 To the beach
