Tyler's Preschool Graduation

The school that Tyler and Megan attend had a very cute celebration for the "graduating" kids and their parents (funny, I don't remember having a cap and gown at my preschool graduation).

We're very proud of our big boy! Click on the photo above to view more pictures or if you're really interested in the day, view the videos of the performances below.

Visit from the Shripka's

Wow...it's been a while! We've certainly had an exciting Spring. It started with a fun visit from the Shripka's who took a very long road trip to spend a few days with us. We had a wonderful time playing and visiting the sites of D.C. For more pictures, click on the photo above.

Irish Dance Party

Tonight we took the kids to our favorite local restaurant, a traditional Irish Pub called the Auld Shebeen, in Old Town Fairfax. Every Friday and Saturday night, they have live traditional Irish music. The kids LOVED it. Little did we know, we'd hear one of Jeff's favorite songs, Whiskey in the Jar.

When we got home, Jeff was inspired to play Ty and Megan the version that he's more familiar with. Here's the dance party that ensued.




About 20 minutes later, this song was Megan's bedtime request (in lieu of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star)...we're in trouble.

Performances

Our kids love to perform. Megan's favorite songs are "You are my sunshine" and "Baa Baa Black Sheep." And, as you'll see below, Ty's very proud to be an American.

Trip to Florida

We just returned from a wonderful short vacation down to Florida with our first trip to Magic Kingdom and a couple of days in Sand Key with Granny and Grandpa. The kids loved Disney World (especially the Buzz Lightyear ride). Of course, they also loved seeing Granny and Grandpa. We got to go mini-golfing, visit the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, and of course, visit Frenchy's and PJs. Ty's favorite part of the trip was a treasure hunt that Grandpa and Granny planned for him. All in all it was a great trip. Enjoy the pictures by clicking on the photo above.
