FCC Event in Reston

WATER-MINE SWIMMIN' HOLE
Today we went to a real fun outing with the FCC (Families with Children from China).

The FCC reserved a tent at the Water-Mine family swimmin' hole in Reston. The park is really easy to get to, just 6.5 miles down route 7 (beltway exit 47A) past Tyson's corner. We had a nice lunch with Linda and her husband and daughters Jeena and Jasmine. We went swimming with Lyssa and her family (newly home from China). And we met Jennifer Frey and her daughter and talked about her adoption-themed t-shirts and her web-site, Adoption-Mama. Last weekend when we went to check it out ahead of time, Catherine did not wear sun protection and her shoulders were burned badly. Then Steve went out to CVS pharmacy and did discover some neat new products to keep the sun burn at bay. One product is by Neutrogena and it goes on cool! Summertime Bliss! Here is a photo of the park:
