Things to Do/Places to Go - Snapshots of June & Early July (2016)

Just a few snapshots from the beginning of summer . . .



This awesomeness occurred at the zoo a week or so ago. Unfortunately, my kids were too busy playing tag to care (why do I even try?)



Another photo of T's Mr. T haircut (because I took about 100).



Does anyone have more fun at the pool than a 4 year old? I think not.





Walking to the Arlington Cinema Drafthouse for Zootopia. I made them take a group photo.





Weekend morning dog walk.





I'm not sure why we brought a flamingo to the beach (Flag Ponds), but he's become a mascot of sorts this summer.



And some days we just chill.



With weapons?





Have you Kan Jammed yet? It's shockingly fun.



The unicorn seems to be injured, this is (sadly) one of our last good photos of her.



Too cool for the pool? (or maybe just mourning the unicorn).



The National Zoo has a fantastic sculpture exhibit called Washed Ashore, with huge sea creatures made from trash found on beaches. The jellyfish is composed of plastic water bottles.









A very rare beaver sighting!







A close up of the sea lion's side. I love the sunglasses.



And, of course, the zoo's misters always make everyone happy.



Pre-sleepover basketball.







More pool shots.



On the way home from the library . . .



Spontaneous sibling bonding.



The kids fell in love with this display in Chinatown. So. many. waving. cats.



And, finally, icebergs at the Building Museum.
