St. Patrick's Day!

Tuesday night was a lot of fun! Cailean and the kids met Tom, Ella and Sophia at The Loop for dinner while I met up with Lori and Georgi at an Italian restaurant before heading into downtown to watch the Little House on the Prairie Musical. It was great! We had soooooo much fun and at times we were like three 10 year olds!!! Our goal was to meet Melissa Gilbert (she played Laura Ingalls on the tv show) who played Ma in the musical. Well, GOAL MET! After the show, we waited by the back door entrance and we not only met her, but she signed our playbill!!!!!!!!!! So yes, we were very excited!!!!!!! Cailean, Tom and the kids had fun from what I heard. The four kids get along sooooo well!

I spent quite a few hours at Ian's school. It's Teacher Appreciation Week, so we delivered the bagels and cream cheese that Panera Bread donated and then Ian distributed the cards to his specials teachers and his sub before school actually started. Then, I took Gavin to pre-school and then volunteered in Ian's classroom. It was my first time with the sub and it went great. Ian's teacher had a baby boy over the weekend and is on maternity now until May. The PTA found volunteers to do recess duty, so the teachers could have an extended lunch and go off campus. So, Gavin and I were back at Kingswood doing that. This afternoon Ian's friend, Luke, will come home with us for a few hours. Even though it's nice out, we decided to hit the bowling alley for a fun activity! Thanks to Uncle Neal, Aunt Megan and Neal Thomas for the gift certificate to make that happen!!!

Gavin went to work with me yesterday for about 4 hours or so. He kept himself occupied the entire time and I was able to get a lot done. No students are around since it's spring break. He enjoys going to NCSU with me and he talked up a storm with my coworker, Megan.

So, we continue to stay busy! The boys are doing awesome. They are having a lot of fun and are excited to get outside to play. Gavin's handwriting is wonderful and we're so proud of him. Ian is working at telling time and has been doing awesome at that!
