Goodbye Preschool

Well we never thought this day would come so quick, Patrick is going to Kindergarten. He graduated last Thursday from Preschool. His class sang some of their favorite songs Brown Bear, Brown Bear, The Unicorn Song, A caterpillar song, and a Kindergarten song. They received little diplomas, then had a small reception with juice and cake.

Memories

Disney is all about the kids and making memories here are some pictures.......................

Disney

Our last stop was Disney World we stayed at the All Star Sports Resort. The resorts were divided into different sports and their were larger then life sports objects around the resort. Their were three pools, a playground, and even an arcade. We went to The Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom. We even did Breakfast with Mickey, where we got to meet Mickey and the gang. We had lots of fun, Patrick rode somebig kid rides with Travis like Splash Mounatin, Tower of Terror, Dinosaur. Brendan even was able to ride some rides with us Aladdin Carpet Ride, Peter Pan, Winnie The Pooh, Haunted Manson(which he fell asleep on), We saw the Playhouse Disney show which both of the boys enjoyed and saw some animals from Asia and went for a dinosaur dig at The Animal Kingdom. We can't wait to go back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fort Myers

We Then went to Ft. Myers to visit Travis's sister and her family. We took a boat ride on uncle David's boat and went to the beach where we spent some time hanging around. We also got to see Travis's aunt Nancy and her husband Dailey, along with his cousin Brain and his family. We also stopped at Uncle David's fire hall where we were able to see the fire trucks and rescue boat, and Travis got to see Tabith our neice play soccer. We had a great time hanging around, swimming in the pool, and can't wait to see them again.

Our next stop was Tampa Florida where we visited my Aunt Carol and Uncle Ken. It was great to visit and spend time with them, we wish we could of stayed longer. Patrick slept in his own room that had toys that he could play with, he loved that. We had a good time swimming, relaxing, and catching up.

Tennesse

For Easter vacation we we went on a road trip visiting family, we also stopped and saw the big cheese and his friends. Our first stop was visiting ma-ma (Travis's grandma) in Indiana (sorry we have no pictures of her on our camera). It was a nice visit, she was able to meet Brendan for the first time and see how Patrick has grown since the last time we saw her. We then followed Grammy and Owen Bohrer Grandpa to Gatlinberg Tennesse (spelling might be wrong, sorry) where we spent Easter with them. We had a lot of fun hanging around at the motor home where Patrick played with Grandpa's tools, played golf, and played at the campground playground. We also walked the town going to the aquarium, Ripley's Believe It or Not (or as Patrick calls it the cracked building) museum, a mirror maze, and we did a chair lift. The Easter Bunny even left Easter eggs at the motor home.

Getting Ready For Easter

Patrick has been asking about bringing up out our Easter decorations, we only have a few things (mostly just plastic eggs, baskets, and a few other small things). I put Brendan in his small chair and had him explore the plastic eggs. He had a great time putting his hand in the basket, picking them up, and looking at them (and of course trying to fit them in his mouth). Patrick has a bunny bowling game which he was playing.

Playing Around

We decided to bring up the jumparoo for Brendan to use and he abostuley loves it. It sometimes looks like he is going to jump right out. We also are borrowing a musical piano seat which he likes to.

Birthday Party

Patrick was invited to a birthday party for one of his fellow classmates. I took Patrick to the pary while Travis stayed home with Brendan. The birthday party was a combination of family and friends so there were lots of people there and lots of things for the kids to do. They had plastic water bottles that the kids could paint and decorate, Patrick picked a blue one and he uses it all the time. They also had a blue screen video kareokee where Patrick and other kids danced and pretended to play instruments. Patrick also won a truck at a Bingo game, and the kids took turns hitting a pinate. There was also great snacks and dinner. Everybody looked like they were having a great time, the kids just liked running around with each other. Me and some of the other parents said that we should have her plan our parties because it was s great.

Irishman of The Year

On March 6th, I know that was three weeks ago my dad was named Irishman of The Year. He accepted the award from The Knights of Equity an organization that he has belonged to for many years. There were many people who were there to help honor my dad, along with the other award winners.

I'm Not Looking

I am trying to get a picture of Patrick and Brendan on their stomachs looking at the camera but no matter what Brendan keeps looking at his big brother.

And The Oscar Goes To...........

Patrick is definitly an actor, not only does he have his own ideas but he also copies things that he sees on movies. A movie that he enjoys waatching with Travis is Caddyshack (because he likes to see the gopher). So one day I walked into the living room and I see him with an Easter basket on his head holding his tent poles. Patrick said "I'm Carl" I replied "Carl Who". Patrick then said you know Carl who is trying to get the gopher.

The Boys

It is never a dull moment in the house with two funny boys and a husband. Patrick Loves to pretend to make hamburgers with his playdough and feed his dog, while Brendan loves to be one of the guys.

I love My Brother

Brendan loves to watch Patrick, where ever Patrick is in the room you can bet Brendan is watching. Patrick loves the attention he shows Brendan how to work his toys.

Guess Who's Cooking Lunch?

On Tuesday my dad was off from work, Michael and Jonathan went to visit my dad while Sandy went out (she joined us later) so when I picked up Patrick from school I took the boys over and we joined in the fun. Patrick and Jonathan had fun playing with all of Grandpa's cars, trains, and airplanes while Brendan enjoyed spending some time with Uncle Mike(sorry no picture of that). Another big event happened that day.....................My dad made lunch, yes it's true read the sentence again if you must. He made us tator tots, spicy Buffalo chicken, and soup, the kids also had applesauce. It was alot of fun and we can't wait for dad to cook for us again.
