Hi Everyone,
It's been a busy summer, and I've been a little lax in writing my updates. I'm getting back on track now.
On the 21st of July, we drove to Washington D.C. so that I could attend some work-related meetings at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. Joanne, her mom, and the girls had to stay in a hotel because they weren't allowed to stay at the institute with me. We did get to go out to a Cuban restaurant with Jerry and Danae, her mom and our family for Joanne's birthday.
This is Joanne's birthday cake on July 22nd, compliments of chef Aunt Danae!
After the meetings were over on Thursday, we all met at Jerry and Danae's house and Joanne's mom stayed there while our family headed north to Karl and Jolene's house in Delaware.Among other things, we got to go see some baseball on the trip. This is Camden Yards in Baltimore.Here is Trevor, Karl and Jolene's littlest guy. He was so cute that he and Jolene appeared on the Jumbotron.It was hat night at the ballpark, but the hats actually had a Miller Lite logo on them, so they wouldn't give any to the kids. We let the kids wear them though. Ths is Amanda, Amber and Jessica, with Emily standing up in the background. In all, our group was comprised of 27 people include our family, Karl's family, their cousin Jeremy's family, Jerry and Danae's family, and our friends Jenni and Ed who live in the D.C. area. We had such a large group we were acknowledged on the Jumbotron between innings. It was a ton of fun.
Have a great week,
Matt
