Paige is a PRESCHOOLER too.

WOW, Paige's first day of preschool went well. She is a TURTLE, and goes to school M/Th for 4 whole hours. I was so proud of her, she loved being a big girl and carrying her back pack today, she actually had to have a test run with it yesterday when we took Reese to her first day. So basically our weekly schedule is 1 day with both girls at school, one day both home, two days with just Paige and I, and one day with just Reese and I. Speaking of Reese she loved her ALONE with Mommy time today, so much she didn't want to pick up Paige. LOL, but when Reese got to Paige's classroom and she saw Paige, they were both so very happy to be with each other. Paige was so cute, she gets to pack her lunch and eat with her classmates in the cafeteria. The only one issue with Paige and preschool is that she had a really hard time settling down for nap this afternoon, was so tired she just cried. She is exhausted. I am hopeful that naps will work them selves out eventually. Enjoy the pictures.

Reese's First day of Pre K - 4

So today was Reese's first day of Preschool K 4 class. She is officially a Penguin at MABC weekday preschool. So far we love her class and teachers. She goes to school from 9:15 - 1:15 M/W/F. She even packs a lunch. Her schedule is a great mix fun, learning and bible stories. I can't wait to see what the year is like for her. She had a great day and loved showing off her new back pack. Way to go big girl.

Busch Gardens...

So we decided last minute to take advantage of the Military Appreciation Deal with Busch Gardens and we took a trip down to Williamsburg with the Robinson Family on Friday... We had a great time. We met up at Cracker Barrel in FBurg at breakfast and hit the road. We were really worried that the weather would be awful, the last two days had been wet and the forecast for Friday was for more rain. As we drove south there didn't seem to be a break, so the girls were dressed in capris that roll down into pants and t shirts, I packed a shorts outfit and even packed hoodies just in case. RIGHT when we pulled into our parking spot the clouds broke and in came the humidity.... YUCK, so we changed the girls and headed in for some fun. Reese was measured at 42 inches so she got a purple band and a sheet of paper that said what rides she could ride alone and rides she could ride with an adult. She was so excited. The first ride we went on was Corkscrew Hill a 4D ride in Ireland.. Katrina, Reese and I went for adventure as little people... Reese wasn't bothered by the ride itself, it was the whole 4D thing, big horse snorting on her (as air blew on her). At one point Katrina offered her arm if she needed it, thinking that she would just snuggle with me if needed, was she ever wrong, at one point I looked down and Reese was seriously holding on to Katrina. Overall she had a great time. They rode a horse ride, swings, airplanes, a carousel, River Rhine - boat ride, got wet from the Griffon ate great food in Germany, fed the lorikeets, walked and walked some more, rode Escape from Pompeii (Reese didn't like the fire and her face as we came over the hill and slide down the water shoot was priceless), the girls got their face painted, ate tons of snacks and walked some more, about 5:30 we were done, so we headed out stopped at Sonic and made it home by 8:30 with out any naps... CRAZY. They were still in good moods too, even crazier. Ok so here are some pictures. Hope you enjoy... We love and miss you all.
