father - daughter
Last week our church had a father teen daughter date night. Edwin took Brianna and they had a great time together building memories. They went to a tea shop that also serves light fare. There wasn't any motive for it as far as a teaching or anything.
It was just a time to spend with your daughter or if you were the daughter to spend a nice evening out with your dad. After the meal Edwin took Bri to the Prince St. Cafe for a beverage. Anyone that knows Bri well knows that her beverage of choice is a chocolate milkshake. Brianna said it was the best milkshake she has had yet. So there ya go next time you got a hankering for a milkshake head to the Prince St. Cafe.
Here are some pictures of the evening.

SNOW finally....
Okay so now it feels a little bit more like winter. Tonight we headed to the Clipper Stadium for some ice skating courtesy of Edwin's employer that was very generous of them. It was picture perfect with a light snow falling. So here we are having a night of fun and I can't help but feel for the Haughery family who is getting ready to undergo a very scary and serious time tomorrow with Alivia's operation. Jesus please watch over Alivia protect her and I pray for peace for James, Emily and there families.
fun stuff
I'm trying.........
I haven't forgotten to post. I've been trying to upload a video of some fun stuff we did on vacation this past week but it's not happening. Not sure what's wrong but I'll keep trying. Anyway we did have a very nice time on a mini vacation we took to Massanutten Resort near Harrisonburg, Virgina. We had a great place to stay it had a huge whirlpool that the kids loved and a sauna. Beautiful scenery from our balconies. Friendly deer passing by and the squirrels were really romping around making all kinds of noise and little birdies flitting around as well. There was also a Woodpecker doing his thing near by. It was fun hearing him. We spent most of our time at the Water Park they had. It was really a great place the kids loved it and Edwin and I did too. We all went down the slides they had they were a blast. And it sure felt good to just float around the perimeter in our tubes. The kids all tried there hand at the Wave Maker. They all did great job even Rico. He was a trip. Edwin of course wanted to ride the wave to but I had to put my foot down. His knee isn't recovered yet from his surgery so I didn't think it would be a good idea to take the chance on something hitting his knee. The first day we were at the water park the fire alarm went off so we had to all go outside. It was a good thing the weather was unusually warm or else they would have had some problems. The power went out in part of the city that's why the alarm went off. To make a long story short since we got jipped out of a lot of time and since they eventually closed the park down for part of the day we got to go back the next day for free. So that's what we did. It was worth it. Edwin took the kids down to the rec center the rest of the time in the evenings. They had an indoor pool, basketball, ping pong, raquet ball, etc.
Sometime soon I'll post some pictures of our time. The trip was a blessing to us all and we made some nice family memories.

Soooooooo..........
The Eagles lost. It's a bummer but I'm proud of the Eagles they played well but it was the same story as all year the little flubs were there down fall. Those little mistakes that cost them big.
Not interested in talking about next year yet. I have to get over this year first. I'll need to think a bit who I want to win the Super Bowl now. I want to give a shout out to Chris who made an appearance on my blog. Being the big Steeler fan you are I appreciated your gracious words about my Eagles. And by the way you owe me a case of Diet Pepsi. I forget what for but I know you owe me. And we still need your handy work at our house. =) Also there was a Bear fan sighting on my blog saying something about thinking they are going to the superbowl.............hmmm we shall see.

Music Honor Society
This past Monday night was a busy night. Bri and Bella both had a basketball game and Noah had a special program too. God was gracious and thankfully everything was in one school. So we got to see Bella play a little of her game and then we headed down to the auditorium to see Noah and then after his program we headed back up to the gym to see the last part of Bri's game.
So Monday night Noah got inducted to the Music Honor Society at his school. It was a really nice ceremony. All the people who were inducted 13 in all gave a small recital. They were all really good. It wasn't just singing there was instrumentals too. I was amazed once again to here Noah sing. Around the house he doesn't sing like he does in concerts so I'm always surprised when I here him, pleasantly so. He sang Mattinata composed by Reggiero Leoncauallo. Can I be the proud momma here and say that I think his voice is wonderful. We will see where God leads with that gift. One kind of interesting thing happened the night of Noah's induction. Just as he started singing the fire station near the school, alarm went off. If you listen in the video you can definitely here it. I felt bad about that for Noah cause it was a little distracting. But still it was a great night. Congratulations Noah!

Eagles beat the Giants yesterday 23-20. Yippee! Now it's on to the Saints. We had a fun time once again at my sister Jane's house watching the game with my family. Here's some pictures from yesterday. Janie had some extra Jerseys so we stuck them on mom and dad. Daddy is definately an Eagles fan and mom well we told her when to cheer and she did.

Noah's solo
Noah's Christmas Concert I've been wanting to post this video since before Christmas but I did not know how to do it. Finally took the time to figure out how to post a video. I think the blog queen Sara will be proud of me. Sorry for my camera almost losing Noah towards the end. But I was watching him so intently and so into it that I didn't realize my camera was moving up. But you get the gist of it. We didn't know Noah was doing a solo till we read the program. He wanted to surprise us. Which he did. I think he did a great job!!
