Lyla's 1st Grade Concert

We had Lyla's 1st Grade Concert tonight!  She's been practicing for months and was so excited about it!  The music teacher did it as a rainbow and each 1st grade class had to wear a different color.  Lyla's class was dark blue.

Kids of Steel Race Day

To say I'm proud of Lyla is a huge understatement!  She did the Kids Marathon today, a mile, in less than 12 minutes!  11:36 was her time today in really unfavorable conditions!  She loves to run and I love to cheer her on!

 

If you watch the video, Gary and Lyla are a little after the 2 minute mark!

St. Pattys Celebration - 2017

Also known as mom & dad's big night out!

We planned to take Lyla to the parade again this year.  But it was cold Saturday.  REALLY cold.  Too cold to justify making the trip down there to stand outside.

We were also supposed to meet Erin and Andy and the boys for lunch in Washington.  But Hendrick was sick.

And Ashley and Jeremy had a wedding to go....

So St. Pattys was a little different this year, but still so much fun!

We ended up meeting mom, Em, Gerald and Carter for lunch.  Which was great because we haven't seen them since Christmas!  And Lyla got all decked out just for the fun of it.  Another reason I just love her so much!

 

 

After lunch, Lyla went with mom and Gary and I came home.  Another couple we know from school came and picked us up and the four of us went out for the evening.  We had a blast, as always and definitely paid for it on Sunday!
