Preschool Graduation

This is what it looks like when 20+ 3 and 4 year olds graduate from preschool after having a party that included lots of cake and a hose on the playground. (Bennett is the one with the cape towel.)

Pre-K

Today was Bennett's first day of pre-K at Kids R Kids preschool. He was very excited beacuse he is in Charlie's old classroom and even has Charlie's old cubby. There are approximately 20 kids in the class which may take some getting used to but Bennett has never been shy, so I'm sure he'll be all setlled in by lunch.

Lake Sinclair

Our friends invited us to their lake house for the weekend and we jumped at the chance to hang out on the water. The boys were even treated to a boat ride. I know what you're thinking -- how did Laura and Brian, two very over protective parents, let their kids get on a raft (see picture) pulled behind a boat, by themselves! Let's just say life jackets and cocktails.
Their new friend Ava, who is 5, told them where to sit and what to do. Basically "hold on"! Charlie was grinning from ear to ear but Bennett was crying so he finished out the ride on Momm'y lap on the boat.

Race Time

If you live in Atlanta for any amount of time, the annual Peachtree Road Race is sort of a rite of passage. This year I ran it for the first time. Well I ran "most" of the 10K. Brian and the boys came to cheer me on but being our first time, we all had no idea how crazy and crowded it would be. It's basically a huge street party -- and 60,000 runners.
A few days later I was emailed my official results and photos. Doesn't it look like Magic Johnson was running in front of me?

Disney Again!!!

We are feeling really blessed because we got to do Disney twice in one summer. And, again we are with family which makes it all the more easier to carry strollers, drinks, hats, sunscreen, popcorn -- and enjoy family time :)
Papa and Mimi rented a house in Orlando so the boys swam every day. And it was Bennett and Papa's birthday so we had a joint birthday party. It was a dolphin themed pool party complete with a giant inflatable dolphin courtesy of Natalie and Brad.
We went to Hollywood Studios, Celebration and Gator Land.

the Easter Bunny came

The Easter Bunny, like Santa, comes at night and hides eggs in the yard and baskets in the house. The boys had so much fun this year gathering eggs.

tee ball

Both boys are on the same tee ball team -- the Houston Astros. We really lucked out and were able to have the same coach and team mates as last season. We've made great friends and can't wait to see what team we move to this fall.
