Summer Fun

We have posted some photos from the pool we go to during the summer. There are also some pictures from when the kids were playing in the yard with the water.

Last Day of School

The girls finished their second year of school since we moved to Raleigh. They have adjusted very well and made many new friends. The pictures associated with this post are from the end of school celebration.

Hanna's Fall

Hanna has bunk beds and when she was climbing down from her top bunk, she slipped and fell backward hitting her head on her toy chest. Thankfully, she ended up needing just one stitch. She was allowed to pick out a color for her stitch which was blue.

Nora's Birthday

Nora turned 11 on May 29th. She is having a small birthday party at Frankies this weekend. Nora also had her annual eye appointment this week and was fitted for contact lenses. The picture in this post is from this morning when she left the doctor's office wearing her new contacts.

Memorial Day 2008

This year Kristi's sister Emily came out to visit for the holiday weekend. We went to dinner with our neighbor's one evening with all the kids. The next day we went to the dog park in the morning so Magnus could get some exercise in then we spent the afternoon at the pool. Monday, we packed up the van with all our kids and headed to Wilmington to spend the day at the beach. The weather was perfect and the surf was very refreshing. We closed out the day by taking a tour via boat of downtown Wilmington's waterfront.

Potter's Parody Phour

Nora played Fred Weasley in her second play at the Durant Road Musical Theatre. She did an outstanding job and really enjoys acting.

Our Neighbor Turned 40!

Our neighbor Kimberly McGhiey turned 40 and her husband Mark rented a stretch Hummer limo for the occasion. Our other neighbor Jenn set up everyone with a babysitter and the adults hit the town. We had a great time and all were home by 12:15 a.m.
