Happy Spring

This year the schools starting giving holidays for the prominent Jewish and Muslim holidays, and this holiday was for the first Eid, which is a celebration at the end of Ramadan. Nathan took off work and had a fun couple of days with the kids. One day Caleb had a friend sleep over and Nathan took them all on a 4 mile hike and out for ice cream                   

They got some new flowers for the back yard.


Benjamin wanted a new haircut for his debut on Alvey in the AM, where he will be on camera with two other students for the morning school announcements. He tried out for the position in the beginning of the year, and was selected to do the announcements between the beginning of April until the end of the school year. He looks handsome with his new haircut.


Another evening we celebrated all 3 kids getting A/B honor roll for the 3rd semester at our favorite ice cream place, Swirlies.
Another weekend while Benjamin was at soccer practice, we took Caleb and Eliza on the 4 mile hike, at a nature preserve close to where we used to live in Haymarket. It’s been beautiful weather and we are enjoying being outside and active.

Happy Spring - beautiful pics of our 3-loves. Our handsome Benjamin looks totally ready for his big school debut - cool haircut and beautiful smile - you will be great Benjamin. Four mile hikes are very impressive for our gang. So cool all the kids could do it - an ice cream treat is also enticing :) Have a great Spring and break from school and enjoy being back in the States everyone.
