Thank you all for sharing in the lives of our three amazing children- Mairead, Jack, and Ben. We hope you visit often! Thursday, January 16, 2014. Trying to fit in any fun fall activity we could, we got the family together again to make s'mores and play in the leaves. My mom gathered the sticks for toasting the marshmallows while the men made fire. There was also a little time for golf, tee-ball, and other activities while the fire was being prepared. We really made the most of Fall this year! Somehow, w...

The Plateniks: June 2015

Wednesday, June 10, 2015. Sunday was the annual Youth Triathlon. Will's 4th, Kylie's 2nd (but 1st all by herself). It is a 50 yd. swim, a 1.6 mile bike ride and a .75 mile trail run. Since being on the swim team for 2 weeks, they are both amazing swimmers. Kylie swam her 50 yards and got dressed to bike in 4:53. Will did it in 3:25. That is their time from the "go" to swim to when they got on their bike to ride, so it includes their getting their shoes and shirts and helmets on. Sunday, June 7, 2015.

The Plateniks: April 2015

Saturday, April 25, 2015. Thursday was Will's boosterthon fun run at his school. The kids run laps that are 1/16 of a mile in an effort to raise money for things the school needs. This year it is more iPads and ChromeBooks. They collected pledges for about a week and then had the big run. The goal of each student is to run 30-35 laps. Will ran 44. He rocked that! Will even got the game ball in his first game last weekend, going 3/3 with 2 RBIs and playing catcher and first base. Sunday, April 12, 2015.

On a random Tuesday when we had something good for dessert, Ben said, "This is the best day of my life.". When Jack was calling for me from the next room, he said, "Jack to Mommy. Mommy? When the boys were going upstairs, Ben said, "Call us if you need anything, Mom.". Ben told me, "Mom, you looked so beautiful on Fake Easter.". She is so good t...

Thank you all for sharing in the lives of our three amazing children- Mairead, Jack, and Ben. We hope you visit often! Sunday, June 16, 2013. Recently, I was interviewed by 'Stroke Connection Magazine' because they are planning to do a piece on Mairead's story. Very cool, right? At this ceremony last year, they were only 3 years and 3 months old. They were SO small and still looked like toddlers. This year, they were so much more confident walking into the room. They knew all the words to the...After rec...

October is such a beautiful month and there are so many fun things to do. We filled our days with apple picking, pumpkin decorating, leaf raking, s'more toasting and more. I love everything about Fall so I try to pack in as much fun fall stuff as I can. Cider donuts, pumpkin coffee, fire pits, comfy sweaters- it's such a great time of year! So, at the last minut...

One of the kids' favorite things to do when we go to New York is to visit Jumpin' Jacks Drive In. We headed over for some delicious soft serve. Dave (and Dave) managed to carry five ice cream cones without dropping any. The kids loved it. what they managed to get in their mouths and not on their bodies, that is. Vineyard 2013: Part 3.

Sunday, June 29, 2014. Last night was our 2nd attempt at our YMCA staff outing to the Flying Squirrels game. We had perfect weather for it this time! Miss Andi threw out the first pitch and Kylie went down to the field with her! Kylie was so excited to do that job. It turned out that it was just Will! We got to go way under the stadium and get the giant toothbrush and then take the limo golf cart out to the field. He, of course, had to keep his eye on the game while we waited. And then the sugar set in.
