It has been a while!











Just wanted to share some pictures with you of various things that have happened over the past few months...I have slacked a bit so sorry for that!
These are mostly from the Holidays, my Mom came to visit, we had a great time opening presents, then had fun at the Vatalaro's on New Year's Eve, went back to work and school for a few days, then got an ice and snow storm and the kids missed 5 days of school, I worked from home 5 days because the city was shut down, we used hundreds of lights to wrap around the big oak tree in the front yard - could be seen for blocks! Had a great Holiday.
Will post more soon!

Girl Scout Camp - Camp Meriwether







The first weekend in November Mckenna and I went to Girl Scout Camp. Camp Meriwether, a horse camp an hour south of town. It was the first cold weekend of the year, but we managed to stay warm. We hiked, sang songs, did skits, rode horses, played games and had so much fun. It was so great to see McKenna learning the songs that my sister and I sang years ago when we were in Girl Scouts - and she learned some new ones that were quite catchy. I found myself singing them all week long! The girls had buddy groups that they did most activities with, so she hung with Ava, Telia and Emma a lot. They were older, so they helped her out along the way and made sure she was OK. She even got a piggy bike ride on the hike - they loved carrying her around. Here are some pix of her and her friends at camp. I am so lucky I got to do that with her...I teared up a few times as I watched her with the other girls. We both really enjoyed the experience.







Happy 40th Suzanne!



My friend Suzanne turned 40 last month and a group of us went out to celebrate. We eneded up at Halo, a night club in Midtown and soon realized we were so old! We walked a block down the street to an Irish pub with a band playing Brown Eyed Girl and we knew we were better suited to hang out there! The band was actually older than us, but the clientele were nice boys from Georgia Tech! We had a great time!

Circus Camp




The kids went to Circus Camp for two weeks this summer and Aidan learned a lot of magic, while McKenna spent her time tumbling and on the trapeze. They had a BLAST!



Trip to NC



We spent my bday weekend in July in NC with family - was great fun! Here's a picture of me, Shawn and my dad and a couple of the kids.

McKenna Turns 7




Mckenna turned 7 this summer and finally got a pair of Crocs. She was very excited! Was a fun day with plenty of Zhu Zhu pets and accessories, clothes and scrapbooking supplies.

Fireworks!


A few pix of us and the Vatalaro's downtown Atlanta for fireworks...was an adventure on MARTA to get downtown, but once we landed on our spot, we had a great view!
