jason and kate are great.


kate and jason came to visit. we walked SOOO much. being a tourist is exhausting. i couldn't keep up most of the time. here are some photos of their visit...
so proud of their sand castle. i'm just proud jason's shoulder's got some sun... 

rehoboth beach, delaware. jason: what did della wear? me: (silence) jason: she wore a new jersey!
(and thus our weekend of jason's jokes began)

happy birthday weekend to alex...


for alex's birthday we headed over the bay bridge to the ocean!


we found a great camp spot.



hummus and crackers, while looking out at the ocean. starting off the weekend right.

sunrises instead of sunsets on the water. interesting being on the east coast. 

we literally  had the place to ourselves for a morning run on the beach.



after our run we played in the waves. whose towel is dried faster do you think?

it didn't take long to find the wild ponies!!!

they were all over! this is the "marsh" on assateague.

the "forest" on assateague



rehoboth beach... WAY more crowded than our previous beach. 
people for miles. 
after our day at the beach we took a quick cat nap in a park, then went to a Legwarmers concert.
Best 80's cover band ever!


presents for alex

he was really excited about new water bottles. thanks meg and clay!
also very excited about new sunglasses for cycling.  thanks kate and em!

birthday brownies

happy birthday my love.
