12 Days of Pinterest....

Brian is leaving tomorrow for India for the next 8 days. It's just me and the kids so I decided to make the most of those 8 days and fill our time with crafts and cooking and all kinds of Christmas craziness! I have a list near a mile long of things from pinterest that I want to try and/or do with the kids. In case you've never heard of pinterest, it's an online pin board where people can "pin" just about anything. Recipes, craft ideas, printable pages for the kids...literally anything you can think of, you can probably find it pinned one someone's board somewhere on pinterest. I have become minorly (or, its major) addicted to it over the past few months. I have made numbers recipes (some good, some not so good), tried various home improvement ideas (liquid Dawn dish soap and vinegar is a miracle cleaner for nearly anything!), home décor crafty projects and so much more. It's even where our clever elf gets his ideas for what zany place he'll hide next!
I want to try to post the links and pictures of all the things we do here on the blog. I'll be starting tomorrow!
Hope you all will follow us and see what we can get in to!

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...
