Happy 4th Birthday, Finn!

 Our next door neighbor, Finn, turns four today!  Will and Ele rented the Raleigh Trolley.  What a great idea!  The plan was for the trolley leave from Finn's house, take the kids to the playground to play and have cake, and then bring them back. 

All of these pics were taken before the trolley left for the park.  Everyone looks great, right?  Well, as soon as we got on the trolley Lucas told me he didn't feel well.  I kind of dismissed it and told him to open his window to get a breeze.  We made it all the way to the park and as Lucas was getting out he puked in the trolley!  All over me and some on Ele's hand!  Everyone was so sweet and helpful.  Jeff came and got us and that was the end of the party for us.  Lucas was fine the rest of the day, so I'm wondering if it was motion sickness?  Ele said it didn't mess up the party too badly.  Finn was bummed that his best bud had to leave, but he still had a good time.

Georgia Tech vs. Duke

 Today we went to the football game with Holly, Adam, Katie and Tyler.  We always have fun with them and today was no exception.  Beautiful day and good game. 

Here is sweet Ellen sitting in her Daddy's lap : )

Lucas acting silly!

Awww, I think this is a cute one...

Love this lady! Oh, her big moment of the day was giving Buzz a high five.  He was up in the stands, so she and I rushed down to see him, but he hopped back onto the field before we could get there.  So we stood around for about 15 minutes until we could motion him over near us... then I held Ellen down, over the wall so she could touch hands with Buzz.  I'm sure she'll be talking about it for weeks : )

Tyler, Lucas and Katie being goofballs!

Our oldest friends in Raleigh!  Or, the people we've known the longest.. : )

Team Schroeder.

These two were looking extra cute today.

Right after this lovely scene, Lucas tripped and hit his head...

He was fine, but needed a lift from Daddy.

Ellen was just happy to be there! : )

Professional Pics of the Cousins

During our trip to Atlanta Jenn surprised me with a sitting with a professional photographer!  We met her in Stone Mountain, which is a special place to me since it's where Jeff and I got married.  The photographer was really good at interacting with the kids and getting them to relax, smile and laugh.  Lucas clearly had a great time : )
