Max’s soccer team has done it again–and won this Memorial Day weekend’s Cannon Cup tournament! Congratulations to his team and his coaches for this well-deserved win!

Huge congratulations to Sophia’s high school theater team, whose “Murder on the Orient Express” was nominated for 12 Cappies (for the uninitiated, that’s the Oscars for high-school theater)! Amazing to see what the team has accomplished and enjoyed the great gala event last night at the Hylton Performing Arts Center.

After coming back in the last two minutes of overtime and winning the penalty shootout in the semi-finals, Max’s soccer team resoundingly won the President’s Cup final to become the 2023 Virginia Youth Soccer Association State Champions in the U12 Boys group! Congrats to the entire team and their coaches for this fantastic tournament weekend! With this win, it’s now off to Philadelphia in June for the 2023 U.S. Youth Soccer’s President’s Cup…

Short, but fantastic trip to my hometown Munich with Max during Spring Break. It was especially exciting to watch Bayern Munich play Augsburg in the impressive Allianz-Arena in Munich.

Congratulations to Sophia’s high school swim & dive team! The PVI Panthers came it first for girls and second for boys at the Northern Virginia Catholic Championships, and Sophia achieved qualifying times for States in 50m freestyle and 400m freestyle relay!

With a heavy heart, I had to say good-bye to my first and biggest hero. May you rest in peace, Dad.

Excited to see my old hometown club, FC Bayern München, face off in a friendly game against my new hometown club, DC United, to great excitement at Audi Stadium

Summer with family & friends in the Outer Banks, NC

So proud of Max and his friends for finishing their first triathlon. Max came in 3rd for his age group and in the top 10 overall (including all the adults!) for his swim time…

Congrats to Max and his VSA Soccer team for finishing this season undefeated!

Enjoying the start of this year’s ski season with a long weekend in Snowshoe, VW

Excited to witness DC United’s 3-1 win over Philadelphia last night in the first game I attended since the pandemic started

After more than two years, we finally made it back to Munich, Germany, and enjoyed family, friends, and German food there as well as soccer camp, (pool) time with the cousins, excursions to a chocolate factory, and climbing high up among the trees in in the Kletterpark Vaterstetten.

Back from a week of R&R in the Outer Banks with Erin’s family, and now off to Germany less than 48 hours later…
