First Day of School Work

Aidan filled out this paper on his first day of school. Jason and I thought it was interesting and we learned a little more about Aidan...like that he is afraid of clowns! When I was young we used to have this velvet brightly painted clown picture that I was afraid of too! Guess it runs in the family!




Here is Leo's drawing from the first day of school too (it's sideways):



And here is his note (also sideways):

Two 1,000 Piece Puzzles

While my mom was here we worked on two 1,000 piece puzzles!

Here is our or second puzzle: butterflies!




Today my mom leaves and no one is happy about it!

But we had a great, great time while she was here.

Off to the airport...

First Day of School

Today was the first day school. No one was really looking forward to it (except for me and Jason-ha!). The morning started out well by waking Crow up with the pillow. They had a good breakfast of pancakes and chocolate milk. Everyone got a little quiet in the car and the nerves were on high but they went in the front door together and we picked them up at 3:05pm.

The boys seemed to have a great day at school. Aidan wasn't thrilled he had a substitute today but he's happy to be home and to go out for I've cream after school. Tomorrow is a new day!

Don't they look awesome for their first day of 1st grade and 4th grade?

Luray Caverns

Crow saw pictures from Ethan and Grandpa Russ' trip East and she really wanted to see Luray Caverns too.

It's such a great place to visit we don't get tired of seeing it either.

GO DC United!

Here's us at the DC United Game! Drinking domestic brew (a whopping $8), eating Papusas and Nachos, drinking Gatoraid and getting us a little DC United action!

They are playing the Chicago Fire and really need to win!

At Last...

The sun came out!



We played beach volleyball, frisbee, made sand castles, swam in the ocean, jumped some waves, made it to pool...we did it all!!!

Rain, rain go away!

We are in Virginia Beach and it's raining, raining, raining. I think Crow might have brought the rain with her (but don't tell her I said that!).


It hasn't stopped us from enjoying ourselves! We went out on the beach yesterday and this morning, rain or shine, I mean rain or clouds.

Leo and Crow shared a bed last night. Poor Crow. Leo is a bed hog and a back kicker. His head was down where his feet were supposed to be! Half the bed was empty because poor crow was sleeping on the edge. Aidan got the roll away bed and was a happy camper.
