Tidbits






















Pictures--John enjoying a milk shake that splashed him. Emily and mom experimenting with homemade facials. I would not recommend this. Way too messy! And.....the true identity of Hannah Montana revealed.

I have been to the Ikea store in DC. Oh my.....love that store. Yes. I could spend all day there. And you could. They have a cafeteria. Although, the food did not smell all that enticing. But, the store is fun.

Football camp is over for Ethan and John and now John is in spring training for fall football. Everyday after school from 3:30 to 5:30 for two weeks. We are anxiously awaiting the end of school. Ethan and Emily still have a couple of SOL tests this week. Ethan has one soccer game left, it will be on Saturday.

John and John are leaving tomorrow evening to go to West Virginia. Carol is having surgery Thursday morning on one of her eyes. So, they are going to take care of her. They will be back on Saturday sometime.

We had a beautiful evening. We went for a family bike ride. John and the boys played football in the yard on what little grass we have. After that we sat on the porch and just talked. It was so much fun. Ethan told us about a governor of Virginia from the 1920s. How does he remember all that stuff. Emily amazed us with ability to talk continuously. And John surprized us with some very grown up views on the world. We talked about politics and choices and consequences. It was fantastic.
