Update: May 23, 2011

We have been super busy the past two weeks. Many pictures to post soon. Here are some highlights:

- Tom can walk! Ok, when he wants to, he can take about 5 or so steps at a time, but he prefers to crawl.
- Tom can wave! Fun to see him wave his whole arm around :)
- Will is getting geared up for 3 year old preschool this fall
- Jack has only 1 more day of preschool, and then he will be a kindergartener!
- Jack did a great job in his violin recital this weekend!
- Kate is now a Brownie, her Daisy troop had a bridging ceremony a couple weeks ago.
- Kate did a great job at her violin and piano recitals this weekend.
- Kate finished spring soccer this weekend.
- Kate is joining swim team this summer, and practice starts next week!
- Two more weeks of school, and Kate will be a 2nd grader!

First Day 4th Grade!

Bye Bye Birdie!

Tom was Ed Sullivan in the production this weekend of Bye Bye Birdie! Kate donned her sock-hop costume from 5th grade to embrace the spirit of the show. For those of you unfamiliar with the musical, Bye Bye Birdie is set in 1958 and was influenced by Elvis Presley being drafted into the Army in 1957. Congrats, Tom!!

100 days left

We have just over 100 days left in the UK. The kids are super excited to get back to the States, and we are too. We have had a great time here, but look forward to being 'home'. This is the last week of term, and only term 3 left! The last term supposedly goes fast, as the weather improves, there are Suzuki concerts, the talent show, and lots of field trips. We have some travel still lined up, plus some visitors to join us - looking forward to seeing you, Auntie Sarah and Uncle Aaron! Stayed tuned for pictures of our last few adventures. We are starting to get the ball rolling on movers and pet shippers and all that fun stuff. And we have to have the whole flat cleaned once our stuff is out. One step at a time!
