Summer fun!

Sarah finished her second year of preschool the end of May. I can't believe she only has 1 more year left before she heads to kindergarten!

Last week, Sarah went to Zoo camp at her school. They studied a different animals each day! She had a great time. Sarah will continue Zoo camp for another week! The end of June, Sarah will do Soccer camp and in July she will go to storybook camp with her friend, Katie.

On the weekends. we are going to try to get out to see the sites in the surrounding areas!

Last night we met some of Sarah's school friends at a restaurant called Generous Georges. ( http://www.generousgeorge.com/) in Alexandria, VA. Sarah had a good time with Katie and Sydney. They got to wear chef hats and make their own pizzas. They had a great time making the pizzas! Sean enjoyed watching the gumball machine that was a size of a juke box. Some older boys were putting quarters in to get gumballs. We all had a great time!

Today we went to Signal Hill Park in Manassas, VA .There was a 1 mile walk that we did through the woods. Even though it was a short walk, it was pretty. Sean kept saying he saw sheep. It was cute! After our walk we went and played on the playground. They had a big firetruck to climb on which the kids enjoyed! We met another NC State family at the playground! The kids had a great time!

Sarah's friends!



Sarah is a "social butterfly" as my grandmother Gayman would say! She has many friends and enjoys all the play dates and get togethers with them. Sarah has three girl friends, Sydney, Skylar, and Katie. whom she has formed a great friendship with. They have a great time every time we get together with them. Enjoy the pictures

ZOO






My mom came for a visit this past weekend! We spent the day at the ZOO on Saturday! We had fun seeing the many different animals. The highlight for Sarah was seeing the pandas. She loved them. Sean's favorite animal was the meerkats. He thought they were very funny when they were nose to nose with him behind the glass. We all really enjoyed the picnic lunch we had at the zoo! Also we all had a great time!

Today Mark surprised me with a trip to the spa for my birthday. He came home around 11:30 to let me know my Spa appointment was at 1pm. It was a very nice surprise. I got the Exhausted Mommy package that included an hour long Swedish massage, a facial, and a pedicure. It was great to be pampered for 3 hours.
