We did some good eating this week! We got to sample all of the Ramen that we picked out from H Mart and Mama doctored them up with some pork, eggs and edamame! It was delicious!

Later in the week Mama made birria style tacos in the instant pot and boy were they delicious! We hope that this one is going on our regular rotation because everyone enjoyed this Taco Tuesday dinner!

Then Finn was an awesome big brother as he helped me with my math homework. He was patient and he knew exactly how to do the problems and how to tell me to work them out. It was really nice of him.

And on this special Friday that I had no school we got to have a very special day with MeMa and PopPop! First I got my very first pedicure along with my family. It was really nice!

Then MeMa and PopPop treated us to Toucan Taco in Laurel. We can't believe they've never been there. Daddy was of course in heaven! It was such a fun afternoon.

Later Daddy and Mama went to Baby Cat Brewery to help celebrate Mrs. Collin's birthday. They had a fun time!

I got to spend the night at Tobias's house last night after we went back and forth to Pinecrest to play in the snow 16 times yesterday! It was fun!

Liam got to spend the night at our house and in the morning his mom and brother brought over some yummy donuts. Woo Hoo! We had already had a fantastic breakfast that Mama made but there is never a bad time for DONUTS!

Then it was time for my basketball game. We got smoked again. It was a rough one...

Later Daddy and Mama took us to Tastee Diner in Bethesda! We sure do miss the Silver Spring Tastee but this one did not disappoint!

  Untitled 

We got all the classics and boy was everything delicious  and so much fun!

 Well, we got home from the car show last night and we went to bed and then it started snowing and it kept snowing all night long and we got enough inches that there was NO SCHOOL TODAY!! Woo Hoo! So Mama and Daddy paid me to shovel the front walk way.

                                   Untitled 

We got a good amount of snow! And we can really get used to this whole 1 day school week!

                                     Untitled 

After shoveling it was off to Pinecrest to sled with our friends. We were out there for hours and hours and ran into lots of our classmates!

                                       Untitled



Liam and I also went out. We made some money shoveling then made our way to the field for a bit.

                                             Untitled 

And we actually got a snow plow down our street! They didn't do much for clearing the snow but it was good to see...

  Untitled 

Then Daddy made us a snow day lunch of champions! Nothing like some nugs and Mac n cheese to warm us up after being out in the snow! It was a great day!

 Well, today was back to normal. Everyone back to the office and back to school. The first time for all of us all week. And then in the evening we were off to the DC Car Show Sneak Peek!! Our annual tradition!

                                       Untitled 

There were lots of fun exotic cars to check out!

  Untitled 

                                     

And some crazy futuristic cars! This one is just down right ugly!

   

   

   

We checked out cars, had some yummy snacks and drinks and walked around...

                                      

   

                                      

                                       

This crazy concept car had a huge Nintendo Switch set up in the back seat. Needless to say we'd never leave this car if we had it!

                                       

   

   

                                        

 

Daddy and Finn even got to check out a simulator. Finn got the high score!

                                      


It was fun getting in the cars and testing them out! We even got to ride in a new Nissan electric car. It was pretty cool!

 

   

   

Then our cousins arrived late but we were able to say hi on our way out! It was a fun night as usual!

                                      


Wednesday, January 17, 2024

 Well, it snowed more over night and the temps got so cold that all of the snow on the ground refroze so no school AGAIN! Lucky us! So off to Pinecrest we went to do more sledding with our friends!

 

                                      

                                      




We had so much fun and ran into lots of friends at the field!

                                          

We even went to the steep side of the school and took some runs, much to mama's dismay!

                                     

                                       

   

Later Mama took us all to H Mart to pick out some exotic fruits and some ramen to warm up with!

                                    Untitled 

They have so many bizarre things there but we are lucky we get to try some of them!

                                       Untitled 

                                     Untitled 

It's always fun to check out all of the things in the store! 

                                     Untitled 

Even if some of them are stinky fish and seafood...

                                      Untitled 

                                       Untitled 

But we got to cut up our dragon fruit and our pomelo when we got home and both were fantastic!
