PERSONAL NOTES - just skip if you are not interested
I actually took a day off for my birthday. Luckily, the kids were off too. Of course, I made Shon take the day off. We went down to Baltimore which we hardly ever do. First stop was the Broadway Dinner. Kirstin and I had seen the dinner featured on DInners Drivins and Dives on the Food Network. That was fun (long drive, but the food was good).
Then, we took the Duck Tour of Blatimore. I had always seen these tours in DC and Boston. I didn't even know they had them in Baltimore until Shon brought home a brouchure. The tour guide was a cheesy comic at heart with some good Baltimore history thrown in. We had a perfect day for the combo land bay tour. I would definately recommend the tour to others.
After the tour, we decided on the Aquarium for our next stop. If you have never been to a 4-D theater, this is a good one to try. There are 3-D glasses and things "happen" during the movie. We always see something different and learn a few things at the Aquarium. 
One last thing I want to mention on a personal note. I feel the need to brag on my child. Kirstin was awarded the Good Sports Player of the Year award in Howard County this week. She has been playing flag football in Howard County for 3 years. (Carroll does not have a coed flag league that I'm aware of.) There was a huge awards banquet on Monday evening. The point of this award was not that she is the best player but that she has a great attitude about the game and treats others kindly. We are so proud of her.
