It's a small world...

So you really think about how small this big, big world really is....unbeliveable! Today, I was reunited with a very good friend that I haven't seen or talked to in 10 years! It had been entiely too long! With the technology today, you'd think that we would have reconnected somehow, someway....but not until today. My sister and brother-in-law were meeting with a financial advisor and the name sounded familiar and I guess through conversation, my sister discovered that this advisor was the husband of this wonderful friend I have been out of touch with. With an exchange of phone numbers, email addresses (and blog sites) - POOF! We just had the best converstation (well, one that can be had where there are needy little ones in the background asking for a snack every 3 minutes) and it's like we haven't missed a beat! Katie - I'm so glad you called and I know that we will FOR SURE be in touch all the time. Looking foward to seeing you soon and having our families meet. I have no doubt they will have as much fun together as you and I had in our McNick days (was that really 15 yrs ago?). I really have missed you! Here's to good friends....I wish I had some embarassing picture to post. I'll work on digging one up!

It truly is such a small world and I am very glad it is - otherwise we just might not have reconnected! I'm looking forward to catching up on all the lost time. Thanks for the very sweet post and know that the feelings are the same on my end!

Brady decided he wanted to have his birthday party with his friends at Chuck E Cheese. He invited his best buddies from school and we had a great time. He scored tons of tickets in the ticket blaster, had a Star Wars cake and had a great time playing games with all his friends. Here are some highlights from the awesome party!

A weekend in the city...

Kaitlyn has her first Irish dance feis here in downtown Atlanta. We decided to make a weekend of it (she dances today and tomorrow) and spend the night at the hotel where the feis is being held. We started very early this morning with Kaitlyn dancing just before 9am! She did amazing and placed in both her dances (second in jig; 3rd in reel). After she finished dancing we headed to the children's museum of Atlanta. The kids had a blast trying all the cool things to do. Then we grabbed some lunch in centennial park (it's 65 degrees here so we ate outside!!) and then hit the aquarium. The kids are excited to swim at the indoor pool later and then it's more dancing in the morning! 

Kaitlyn's first ATL Irish Dance performance

Since moving to Atlanta, the kids had to get involved in their activities down here. Kaitlyn started Irish dancing at Mulligan School back in August. She competed in her first Southern Region Feisanna in November. Tonight, she performed at her first community event with some of the other girls from the dance studio. She did fantastic. I took several pictures as well as a video of her dancing with the other girls. She will be doing many more performances as she made the Tara Dance Company (which is a handpicked dance team that travels the city in the Spring doing performances). We are quite proud of our little Irish dancer and can't wait to see where her dancing takes us! Here is the video...
