Burke Lake

Yesterday was a gorgeous day to be outside, and since DC United had the very rare occasion of playing at George Mason University last night, we decided to head over to Burke Lake for the afternoon and evening then pop over to see the game at Mason. As soon as we got there, the girls wanted to ride the train. Mark only had about 20 min. to spend with us there, so he got on the train and rode with us then left to go to Mason get ready for the game.
After the train ride, the girls and I walked the trail for a bit, and Nina and Lyla liked to stop often to throw sticks into the lake.
We were joined later by one of my friends from the team who brought her daughter also, and we picniced for dinner together, and the girls got lots of energy out on the playground before we all headed over to the game.
**Note: Mark found out that he didn't win the Hall of Tradition but came in second to the guy he said from the beginning really deserves to be there. It was nice to be nominated and, in the end, he feels a very deserving man will get the honor.
