IRELAND

We just got back from our family vacation to Ireland. Here are a couple pictures from the first couple days. After only 2 1/2 days I went through both battery's on my digital camera. I was not able to charge the battery's as I planned because I did not have a converter for the electrical sockets in that part of the world. Oops. So the rest of the pictures, I have to develop the old fashion way. We had several memorable moments including visiting cousins in Killarny and seeing the golf course that was once the family farm my grandfather lived on when he was young. We are also proud to say we survived an International trip taking 2 children. They did great. So if anyone else attempts something crazy like that, let me know and I will give you some survival techniques.

Kaia's last day of preshcool

Well the last three-four months have been busy in our family. Not, only did we do some great trips, but we also had some great vistors. So special memories were made, here are just a few to share. Some other milestones- Micah learned to crawl & Kaia learned to ride her bike. Kaia, also had her last day of preschool. It was a homeschool co-op. It was a really great experience for her & me. Her friends in her preschool are very close, so it is going to be hard, now that it is over. Well, if you stop by here, please comment. -J
