We went on a date night in Norfolk and finally went to the O’Connor brewery. They opened when I was pregnant with Alex so it was only about time we got there (3 years later). It was a huge building with a wall of open windows that we watched a lightning storm while drinking our beers.
Alex had a pizza party with all his classmates at school for his party. We had fun eating and talking with his classmates and their mommies!
I took the kiddos to one of our favorite festivals today to look at art and get honey of course!
Vickie and I got the chance to join 500 yogis on the deck of the USS Wisconsin tonight for pop-up yoga by Bhav Brigade as they said farewell to one of its founding teachers. The event raised $3002.00 for the Elizabeth River Project as well. It was an amazing experience and since they had photographers shooting the event there are some pretty great pictures.
Brooke has been a valuable Sous Chef and has graduated to a straight kitchen knife for prep (think non serrated steak knife). Alex has now advanced to Station Chef and is using a butter knife to prep instead of the kids knife. After Brooke did 1.5 bell peppers diced (I slice them into the strips to make it easier for the kids to dice), Alex was adamant about finishing the last half. We even had to stop the cooking process to allow him the time to finish, but he did a great job!
