Spring Break 2019

The one good thing about Pop living in a new town is we get to visit. During spring break we hopped on a jet plane and set across the US to visit Pop and see the sites of his new City. We ate lots of yummy seafood and saw lots of fun new things. It was a great trip. 

Shuttle bus ready!

St. Patrick Day 2019

The other Holiday we do really well is St. Patrick's Day. This year daddy really "kicked" it up a notch. He and Mr. Andy embraced drafty conditions and broke out the kilts. They had more fun than anyone else, and even made the local news. 🙈

We had a great time at Cheekwood celebrating St. Patrick's Day with the Burgbacher and Swindle families. 

 

 

 

We also took time out to celebrate Granny Staton's 87th Birthday. She is a very special lady, and deserves to be toasted every day of the year. Happy Birthday Granny!!!

 

Birthday lunch crew

2019 off to a bang!

New year, new excitement. 

First, Basketball season is back!  Loralei has a new team this year that is co-ed. She and past team mate Mille Anne are back together and ready to dominate this season.

 

Second, we have entered the orthodontic phase of life. Here's to head gear and palate expanders. :(

We got some snow. It wasn't much, but it was fun to look at and play with. Else enjoyed it. 

 

Lastly, Pa Jim is 78!!  This is a big milestone so we wanted to celebrate. We went back to Opryland hotel for a fun weekend with Aunt Rachel and her family, Pa Jim and Nana.  Sadly, some were hit with a tummy bug mid-trip, but we tried to make the best of it. Happy Birthday PA JIM!
