We had a wonderful day at Biltmore house today.  The kids both enjoyed the tour, expecially with the teasure hunt that they give for the kids to do.  We were able to make it though the whole house.  Then we had lunch in the Stable Cafe before heading out.  Kate and I went ahead and [...]

We spent most of the day yesterday in the car making down here to visit Kate’s parents.  It’s a lot longer trip than going to my parents, but the kids still did a great job with it.  We’re having a good time, despite the cold and sore throat I’ve had since Wednesday.  We’ll be staying [...]

We started the morning having the fish the kids caught yesterday for breakfast.  Then it was time to pack up and head home.  It was a long day in the car, but the kids did a great job with it.  We’ve all had a great time, but it’s wonderful to be back home again.

Mira turned 5 today.  We had an awesome day at the beach for her party.  In the morning, her uncle took her and her brother and cousins out fishing.  Mira caught a baby shark!  Xander caught a bluefish!  We spent the rest of the morning playing out in the sound.  Then we came in and [...]

We had a wonderful time with Kate’s parents.  We all met up (that’s Kate and me, her parents, and my parents with the kids) around noon and all went out for lunch together, which was a lot of fun.  My parents headed back to Clinton after that.  Then we spent the rest of the afternoon [...]

Kate and I made our way down to the Triangle area today.  We are going to be meeting the kids here tomorrow and seeing Kate’s parents for the weekend.  Then we’ll head back to Clinton and then the beach.  We had a leisurly day getting ready to go.  We weren’t in a hurry, so we [...]

My brother and his wife were celebrating their 25th anniversary this weekend.  They were having a pig picking at the beach.  We loaded up on Friday and headed down for the party on Saturday.  We had a great time.  The food was excellent!  We had a great time playing in the water with all the [...]

So the kids had one last day out of school today for Spring Break, so I went ahead and took the day off from work.  We didn’t do anything particularly special, we just enjoyed having another day together.  We got the Dancing With The Stars from last week watched, and Xander and I spent some [...]

We just walked in from picking up Xander from my parents. He seems to have had a great time. Such a great time that he slept half the way home! I’m glad he had so much fun, but I’m even happier to have him back home with us again.

So I took Xander down to our meet point with my parents today to drop him off with them.  They called a few minutes ago (and I just walked in the door) to say they had made it back to Clinton and Xander is already out riding the go-cart.  He’ll be there for most of [...]
