Emma's 6th Birthday

It is hard to believe that we have a 6 year old in our house! We celebrated Emma's birthday in Virginia with family and friends and we also had a small birthday party by having tea at our local Tea shop.

You must be fancy to go to tea!

No little brothers allowed at tea

Emma and all her friends and all the moms had a wonderful tea time.

Emma's school Concert

Emma and her class have been practicing really hard for their first school concert and tonight was the night. The school multipurpose room was really crowded with proud parents and Emma was in the first row, so this was the only picture we got during the concert:

But after the concert, we got one picture with her great teacher,

and as a bonus, here is what Emma thinks she will look like when she is 100 years old

The captions says "When I am 100 years old I will go to the ice cream shop"

Lets go Ride a bike

On Sunday, Emma and Daddy decided it was time to take the training wheels off her bike.

Daddy rigged up a "Handle" on the back of her bike (made out of a golf club) and away they went.

Daddy holding on to get her started.

I sent them both outside and told them not to get too frustrated with each other. This is what I saw after 5 minutes....

It is amazing what our little girl can do when she puts her mind to it!

Superstars!

When Ian is not flying around being "Super E" he is hanging out with Emma being "Superstars" in their cool shades.

(We really need to find Ian some of his own sunglasses :) )

100 days!!!!

Happy 100 days of school! (And an American flag thrown in, too!)

Super "E"

A new superhero has arrived.

It is really fun to watch Emma and Ian enjoying each other. They love to play together and hang out.
