Our Story

Ben and I met in 1996, began dating in 1999 and married in 2001. Now 20 years and 2 children later, we have returned to where our life together began. Ben works for the Federal Reserve and I have the privilege of staying home with our two precious boys.

Dalmatian Derby

Last Friday morning started bright and early at Patrick Elementary with the Dalmatian Derby. This year's theme was Superheroes and each person had a tie-dyed t-shirt with a cape on the back. 
Spot, the Dalmatian, hung out with us for the day and we started with some stretching exercises to warm up.
 Then it was time for some jumping. Gail, our fearless Derby coordinator and past Olympic Track Gold medalist, showed the kids how to do it!
 Then it was time for some speedwalking
 Caden and I tried to walk with Ethan but per him, we were not allowed...I didn't think he would be too big for Mommy in Kindergarten...at least he's independent!
 While everyone walked to some groovy music, Spot showed us his smooth moves
 Then it was time for our superheroes to come back together and end the day with a little Hokey Pokey :-)
We had a great time at our first Derby and this Mommy is extremely thankful it is over after spending every day for almost two weeks at the school working on it! Now, on to the next PTA event!
