Kindergarten Graduation

I cannot believe Colin already completed Kindergarten. (sniff sniff..) His school had some very special activities for graduation and Colin will miss his teachers and all his new friends. Colin had a great year and gained a new level of confidence. He wore his glasses everyday and we got most of his homework done timely..! He showed improvement in his Math skills and is reading Level C books. His music and art teachers would like to see more participation and focus. We are very proud of Colin's first year in elementary school and look forward to what 1st grade brings.

Hershey Park 2012

Our 3rd annual trip to Hershey Park was a blast. The group keeps getting bigger and as the kids get older they want to ride more of the bigger rides. It was a nice change for me not having to walk around the park 8 months pregnant in the heat. Colin/Madi & Ave were super brave, but Carson was still a little scared. All the little babies were troopers and Gatzi enjoyed her first trip to Hershey. We all had to make a last-minute dash to the cars before a big storm hit and we made it with seconds to spare!

Ocean City, MD

Slowly, but shorly I will catch up the blog...In May, we took a long weekend trip to Ocean City. I probably haven't been there since senior week in high school which was a long time ago ;-) We stayed at the Carousel Hotel and had a really nice ocean front room. This was Corynne's first time to the beach and of course the boys had fun. The hotel had a heated pool which was nice because it was kind of chilly outstide. We walked the boardwalk and of course bought the kids candy from Candy Kitchen. We had a great time and will probably make it an annual trip for the family! Forgot to mention it was car week and it was VERY noisy with lots of old cars cruising up and down the trip day and night.
