Declan's First Day of Montessori Preschool

 So Declan changed schools today!  He had his first day of full time preschool at the same school as Emmy and Aoife.  He even got to go on the bus and come home on the bus.  We did a dry run at the bus stop yesterday and it didn't go so well. I was a little nervous about this morning but he did great and got on the bus no problem.  It did help that Aoife grabbed him by the hand and dragged him on without giving him a chance to think twice.
I did drive and meet the bus at the school since he had some stuff for naptime that he had to bring.  It was fun to see him put everything into his locker and put his lunch on the cart.  He didn't even turn around to say goodbye - just marched right into class!  He came off of the bus so happy that afternoon and has been happy every morning since!

Fireballs Basketball

 Emmy's basketball team this year is the Fireballs!  A very exciting name!  She is the only one who has played basketball before so it doesn't bode well for a lot of wins - but I'm sure they'll have a lot of fun!!

Marathon Day!

 Brendan completed the Disney Marathon today! It was COLD in the morning but we went over to Epcot to see him cross the finish line! We spent more time at Magic Kingdom and soaked up every bit of magic before we had to head home to cold Virginia!

Half Marathon Cancelled

 The Half Marathon was cancelled this morning due to weather so instead of running the race, I spent the morning in line to get a refund. We did spend the afternoon at Magic Kingdom - fun despite the rain!!

Day 2 - Animal Kingdom

 Today we had a great day at the Animal Kingdom - lots of rides, snacks and facepainting!! W even had some brave people who went on Expedition Everest!











Day 1 at Disney

A fun but HOT day today! The kids all ran the kids races and got their medals! We spent the day to Epcot and even got to eat lunch with princesses - Declan is not a big fan of anyone in a costume so he stayed a good distance away! We had dinner in Mexico and had fun walking around the park and riding rides at night!!
