1st day of Dance class

Bridget started ballet/jazz classes again. This time at a new dance studio. It's much smaller and the lesson room actually has mirrors all around!! Bridget had a great first class. There were only 3 girls in the class, so she'll get a lot more/better attention.

Winston Salem Dash baseball game

In NJ we went to a Lakewood Blue Claws game and the kids loved it so much I wanted to get to a game here at home.  Our minor league team is the Winston Salem Dash.  They opened an awesome new stadium this year.  Last night was the last home game of the season.  Both kids were really excited to go to the game!!  We had good seats toward the outfield just past 1st base, so we could see everything.  I have a feeling we'll be catching a few Dash games next spring. 

Our seats were to the left in that first green section...3rd row.
The Dash mascot is Bolt.  He was pretty funny.  :)
The pitcher warm-up mound was right in front of us.
Dillon is watching the pitcher warm-up.
After the game the players threw t-shirts and balls.  I caught a t-shirt, so Bridget went down to get it signed.
After Friday night games they do fireworks!  That was fun!!
After the fireworks Bridget and Dillon got a chance to run the bases.  That was definitely a highlight!!

Dillon's 1st day of Preschool

Dillon had a great 1st day of preschool! He was so excited to go. :) I managed to keep the tears at bay...although they were so close. He didn't even look back. Dillon has the same 1st year preschool teachers that Bridget had...Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Cumby. We loved them and I know he's going to have a great year! Reese Calvert is in his class....her sister Reilly was in Bridget's 1st preschool class too.
Dillon cried when I came back to get him b/c he didn't want to leave.

Dillon is in the Bees.

Can we play baseball outside?

The question of the day is often, "Can we play baseball?!?!" Dillon is a future power hitter!

Saturday at the pool...

Last Saturday we went to the pool with Shannon, Mike, Xander, Jonas, Mandy and Claira. They belong to a fun local pool. It has a really big 2 foot section which is perfect for the little guys. Bridget and Dillon didn't want to leave!

Looks like Bridget is walking on the water in this picture. :)


The whole gang...Bridget, Xander, Jonas, Claira and Dillon.
