If you take a mouse to the movies...

This year for my birthday, Ryan got the whole family tickets to see "If You Take a Mouse to the Movies."

We have been to the Children's Theater in Charlotte in the past, and it's always a wonderful experience. I can't wait to see how the kids react to today's performance.

Congratulations Elizabeth!

Happy 2nd Birthday, Ethan!

Happy Birthday Craig!! We'll see you soon!

HAZZAH!!!

Fall in Charlotte means the Renaissance Festival!! Hazzah!!

This annual tradition is always a winner with the kids.

This year, William came away a knight, and Megan became the fairy princess we all knew she was.

Trick or Treat!

This year, William and Megan were robots!

The kids got tons of compliments on their costumes, and they had a blast being robots. However, mental note for next year: Avoid costumes that become completely destroyed if you pick Megan up. Either that - or coach William's patience as we stick to Megan's slower-than-normal pace. I guess, another mental note could also be: Avoid costumes that make it difficult for Megan to walk. ha ha ha Good times.
