It’s great to have mom back home for the weekend; on Friday night we went to our old standby, Clare and don’s beach shack….we got the royal treatment by Dave, the owner.
On Saturday morning we took the girls down to the Rosslyn spectrum theater for the Teatro de la Luna bilingual celebration; they did art and puzzles with all the other kids before going to see the Hansel and Gretel play….riker watched the entire thing and piper laid on the floor for most of it 
That evening we went down to Clarendon to do some shopping and eat dinner at Pete’s new haven pizza; we got a great booth for the girls to hang out so the parents could relax (see pix at the top).
On sunday morning mike took riker ice skating at reston town center while wendy took piper shopping (we figured piper would not be able to ice skate); riker was very excited, but got nervous quickly, we did about 3 shaky laps around the rink before she called it quits. that was okay; it gave mike and riker a chance to have lunch together at Jacksons. The rest of the day we cooked, watched football, and the girls played on the ipad.
