I know it has been a year since I have posted here. Life has just gotten in the way so I am trying to start new and post more regularly.

Last night we took the kids to a single A baseball game. Potomac Nationals vs. Carolina Mudcats. We are lucky because Woodbridge is the home of the Potomac Nationals. We love going to baseball games as a family. We try to take the kids to Baltimore when the Red Sox come to town. It seems that we only get to go every other year due to scheduling conflicts. So this was a great compromise. The kids had a blast. We were treated to 2 Washington National's players doing thier rehab with the P-Nats. The only downside was at the time of the first pitch, at 6:38 pm, it was 103 degrees! Talk about hot. We drank tons and tons of water, a big ice cold lemonade and the kids got dippin dots and popcorn. Once the sun went behind the trees it was a much more enjoyable night. After the game was over (P-Nats won 4-3) they turned off the lights and we were treated to a great fireworks show They really did put on a great show. We didn't get to see a big fireworks show on the 4th so it was great to see a good show. Then after the fireworks when they finally got the field lights to start to come back up the kids got to go on the field and run the bases. The smiles on both of them when they hit home plate was priceless. We will definately do that again. And the best part? 15 minutes and we were home. If we find a house in the neighborhood we love the drive home will only take 7 minutes!
