Forget about the new toys - let's ride the one that is about 35 years old.....

This looks like Big & Little Trouble.....

Graduation

Alex loved the graduation ceremony and looked fabulous wearing my hat afterwards.

Santa Train 2009

The Santa Train was a hit again as the kids had lots of cookies & milk and Alex got to talk to Santa (Claire wasn't down with Santa this year).

Merry Christmas from the Brittains

Happy Halloween

Alex's First School Picture

It's hard to believe but Alex is growing up and had her first school picture last week!!

Tweetsie R.R

The weather was perfect and we had a great day at Tweetsie Railroad. We rode the train, lots of rides, had a funnel cake and popcorn, and saw lots of animals. I wish I had video of Alex driving one of the cars with Tara riding in the passenger seat......hitting everything that got in the way!!

Fancy Gap, VA

We had a great time on our trip to Fancy Gap celebrating Tara's birthday. We visited Hillsville, VA and saw the 'Bottle House' which was one of a kind. Then we stopped at the Alpaca farm on the parkway and the girls loved it. Just happened to be there a couple days after the baby was born.

Labor Day Weekend 09

Saturday morning we got up early and took our breakfast out to the white water center. Unfortunately we we too early as the pumps weren't on yet but we walked around and the girls loved it anyway.
On the way home we stopped by the airport to see the planes (kids love this free entertainment...). Here is a view of downtown.

And this is the smallest plane I've seen take off. It was about the size of a car and may have held 2 people.

Monday we made it out to the park for lunch, play time and a bike ride.

First Days of Kindergarten

Day 3 of Kindergarten Alex bought her lunch for the first time and enjoyed a corn dog, tater tots & mashed potatoes with milk. Yummy.
