Jane Austen Date Night

For my Christmas Present this year AJ gave me a coupon to use for tickets to a play.  I picked out a show at the Virginia Stage Company: Pride and Prejudice.  AJ arranged a sitter and after a delicious dinner at Luna Maya we set off to the historic Wells Theater.  The theater was gorgeous inside and also other patrons were dressed in period garb which made the evening even more fun. It was a great show and we both enjoyed it!

 

 

Alex Ridding Bike with No Training Wheels

While waiting at the bus stop for Brooke today, AJ decided to take the training wheels off Alex’s bike.  He did really well considering he will be turning three and half NEXT month!

Brooke’s Cave

Brooke became upset that Alex was taking his teddy bear to school to ‘hibernate’ in their classroom cave because she didn’t remember doing the same exact thing when she was in the 3 year old class at the same school.  So while she was at school I made her bear a cave and when she got home we put her bear into hibernation.

Bluebird Gap Farm and Newport News Park

Today was going to be another warm 60 degree today so I took the kids to Hampton and Newport News to try two new parks.  We started off at a park with farm animals and then hiking at the second.  We all had a great day!

Mount Trashmore

The weather was mild today so after my long run I took the kids to play at Mt. Trashmore Park.  We had fun at the playground, climbing the hills, throwing rocks in the water, and climbing trees.
