Delayed Birthday Present
last update: 06/08 @ 09:50

We went to see the Subdudes at The Birchmere last night.

It was another great show and lots of fun. And there is a new album on the way but not out yet. We’ll keep our eyes open for that.

Belated Happy Birthday, Sarah!!!

Not the usual river trip…
last update: 06/02 @ 18:42

… We don’t normally run into the Park Police helicopter on the river. Sometimes it flies over; this is the first time I’ve seen it on the ground at “golf ball island.”

(I thought I was taking stills, but realized after the fact the camera was still set up for a school project of Roberts.)

We heard there was an injury on one of the trails. The response was impressive, we saw four rafts plus the helicopter. No sign of whoever was injured.

With the excitement over, we enjoyed a lovely day on the river; warm enough to enjoy getting splashed, high enough to have some fun waves.

All and all, a nice start to the summer for us.

Honor Roll again

Robert has been keeping his grades up and made all A honor roll again for the quarter. He’s starting to look forward to school winding down and summer travel (and work at the Smithsonian) picking up.

Happy Birthday, SZap!!!

We started celebrating Sarah’s birthday this morning with some fun presents.

The new tub made for an extra layer of wrapping.

And the cards came with glitter, as requested :)

Of course, there were Legos involved.

And this evening we met up with Seileen and Mary at Los Tios for the ritual wearing of the silly hat.

I thought it was nice birthday, and Sarah’s smile makes me think she did too.

And he brought desert!!!

One of Sarah’s college friends is visiting from Boston.

Life could be lots worse than having pastry chef friends :)

We had a great dinner at Kith/Kin last night and it looks like we’ll have a fabulous desert tonight!

Dinner should start to smell really good shortly as the pork shoulder starts to heat up…

Wedding Finery

Including these of us. I think this is when Carolee got her shot of us rocking our hats.

And this one of Robert and me is excellent.

Steve and I coordinated which worked well as MacNaughton became the dress code for parking assistance. He and I had directions on where cars could park — Loren and Susan don’t really have parking at their house for 100 guests.

But by being on a small island, getting the word out that parking was tight, and having a church around the corner and one othe beach house down the street rented, there was plenty of space.

The MacNaugton parking team’s job was easy.

Family hats…

Robert and I decided to represent the MacNaughton clan for the festivities.

Thank you for the picture Carolee!

Beach Wedding
last update: 05/04 @ 11:04

Perfect day for a beach wedding yesterday. And everything was great! Kate and Sean are now legally married (the most important part). And Loren is down to only one daughter engaged :)

And family and friends are enjoying the company on Ocracoke.

It may be awhile before he gets to sleep, having figured out that crazy technology with the tape and wheels.

If only I had more faith and held on to my cassettes…
