Lucky First Shamrock Stride

We had a fantastic time on our family's first Shamrock Stride, and definitely agree that it will be a tradition.

Kevin made it a goal at the new year, wanting to get us walking more regularly. We've been on several big walks/hikes, and yesterday was the perfect weather for a misty spring walk. We walked downtown and back, so in total it was just under seven miles (Makenna only had a piggy back ride for about a half mile up Broadway :-). Teagan was a natural and snoozed for a good long stretch. The kids loved the party atmosphere and we agreed that next year we'll have to get tutus. :-)










Lastly, the kids absolutely love Irish folktales and our favorite new book this season is A Fine St Patrick's Day.

Happy St Patty's Day!

Totally Awesome 80s Night to Benefit Irvington School

We had a serious blast from the past for Friday's Irvington School Auction. It was truly hilarious to see everyone dressed up, and we had a fantastic time. The kids loved our outfits and it was awesome to have a few hours to live it up.

My shirt got lots of comments...it said "I liked unicorns before unicorns were cool!"

The photo booth captured it pretty well!

With Makenna's preK BFF Mamas...now my friends too!

Teagan woke up from her nap to discover that Daddy had grown a mullet...she was very perplexed.

PreK Daddies!
