For the long weekend the weather was kind of yucky so we hung pretty close to home.
We did check out the Jacksonville Landing on Monday and it was pretty cool. It is right on the water, free dockage, bunch of restaurants and stores. It is all walkable too. The kids had so much fun, they had a water park but we did not know about it so we did not have their suits :( they were not happy with us. We did have lunch at Hooters :) and both kids were a hit with the girls :)
Danny is settling back into school and is so tired that it is like pulling teeth to get him to do any work once home. He started soccer this past Wednesday and will start Karate next Tuesday. He also started Violin today :) He loved "playing". I tried to hang around to catch site of it but they were running really late and I could not wait. The school has the Asst conductor from the Jax philharmonic come in weekly and ALL kids starting in Kindergarten play. My old violin is being repaired and he should be able to use it in a couple of years.
He is sound asleep by 8pm and we have to wake him at 7am.
Victoria has started going upstairs for bed, climbing in, we put music on get hugs and kisses and she drinks her milk and goes to sleep!! We have the side of her crib down and will start using her toddler bed soon. I can't believe she will be 2 in a month!!

Sounds like Danny is in a great school!! And yes, I can't believe Victoria will be 2 next month. That means you and I have been hanging out for 2 years now too!!!
Hey Danny - no karate moves on the violin, OK?
BTW - you're quite a busy guy!
Ah...the violin...near and dear to my heart. How cool will that be if Danny continues and ends up using your violin, Nancy?!?!?!
Sounds like you have a great routine going with the kids (tired and sleepy kids are good, right??).
Now to our surprise....Thank you, thank you!! We received your gifts and just love the outfits!! You are so kind and thoughtful!
One of the outfits will probably be one we take with us, so glad to have it! We are busy packing and checking our lists, plus another run to the bank and a family birthday this weekend! Time now seems to be moving WAY too fast for us! Thank you so much for thinking of us!
