Mostly pictures

A quick update, Carter turns 9 months this week (I KNOW I KNOW!) and as you can tell he is as cute as ever. He's getting around now, not really crawling but rolling and scooching backwards. He's had a rough week of ear infections and pink eye but all is better now. The other kids are busy with an upcoming Aladdin performance they are in this weekend. Ellie isn't in it but she's the biggest fan and loves to watch rehearsals. I'll post pictures of that next week. There are also no pictures of McKenna but there will be soon. Please don't tell her, I don't want McKenna scorn! I've included a video clip just for the York relations, hope you enjoy!

Spring, play and dancing

Just a short blurb. Spring has sprung here and it's beautiful. We've had a few days of sun and a few days of rain and everything is blooming. The picture is flowers off our star magnolia tree in the front yard. It produces these incredible flowers that make me *sigh* when ever I see them.

McKenna finished yet another production. This one was through a drama group at her school and was so fun to watch. It was "Doo Wop Wed Widing Hood" with lots of singing and dancing and she loved it. Tyler and she are now rehearsing for "Aladdin Jr." which is going to be fantastic, but they (we) are ready for rehearsals to be over.

Tyler starts Little League tomorrow and he's excited for that, too. Dee gets to coach him this season so I'll keep you posted on how it all turns out.

Dee's birthday was this week and came and went without a lot of fanfare. We did get together with friends for dinner and cake and all had a good time.

Lastly, Carter started dancing today. Probably not a big thing to anybody but his mom, but I thought it was a kick in the pants so I've posted a little video. Eight months old and he rocks!

Finish...

It looks like I cut out the middle of the last post. I often do that when trying to include pictures in certain places. Do'h! Here's basically what got cut out.

I said we sampled some Southern cuisine (boiled peanuts, fried green tomatoes, etc.). We went to River Street and saw HUGE boats on the river, shopped and ate some more. We explored downtown Savannah, which I loved and would like to spend more time. The houses were amazing, Spanish Moss hung in the trees, everybody was friendly and it just has a feel about it. We played at the park and Jonas cracked me up all weekend. We attempted the beach but it was stinking cold that day. I'd like to try again when it's warmer! Mostly we just enjoyed being together and the trip went too fast.
