I have a bunch of stuff to post, but want to get these up first. As we all know June is the end of the school year. It also happens to be the end of the year for dance, and there was the recital. This year, however, was different because we have not just one…

Here are some pictures from the rest of May closing out the month. During the spring concert Xavier and a couple of his classmates performed Irish dance. Here’s Tevye enjoying the whole show. While I was in D.C. Laura decided it would be a good idea to have Grace out of the stroller, so now…

Last week I was part of the group chaperoning the 8th grade trip to Washington D.C. which was my 2nd time doing so, and my 4th time overall to our nation’s capitol. As a result, all of the pictures are going to be from this trip. Actually, almost all of these pictures are going to…

My kids annoy the hell out of me sometimes. Right now Tevye and Grace are sitting at the dining room table,”eating” lunch, and roaring at each other. I would take a picture but they are in constant motion. I tried, actually, but one or the other is blurry and to be honest, a picture just…

Here are some pictures from the first half of May. It has been very busy around here, not starting with, but certainly including Xavier’s first communion.

It is May, but these pictures are all from April. Yes, I am still behind and getting caught up. Buckle up because this is going to be it for April, and it’s not a small update. I was able to make it to one of August’s track meets, getting there literally just in time for…

Here are the rest of the pictures I’m going to be posting from last month. I have already covered St. Patrick’s Day fairly well, so none of those pictures will be here. A while ago I posted a couple of pictures from Déla’s turn as the title character in Peter Pan. Uncle Bill and Aunt…

I know it’s been a while, but it’s difficult to type with your hand in a splint, but that is a blog post for another time. Let’s get into it because there is a lot. As usual St.Patrick’s Day was a big event, but this year was even more significant. Since last St. Patrick’s Day…

One morning when I went to get Grace up she was wearing a tutu that she somehow managed to get and put on. Remember it, because it will come up again. And again.It’s been nearly two weeks and she refuses to stop wearing it, day or night. Changing subjects, here is Déla with the “Most…
