Mother\’s Day

Mother\’s Day got off to a rocky start.  Quinn was in our bed and woke me up pretty early crying \”I didn\’t get a chance to answer the door\”.  I shushed him back to sleep and got out of bed.

A short time later I heard the gate at the top of the stairs opening and crying.  He was still upset that he didn\’t have a chance to answer the door…in his dream.  This continued for quite some time until Don was able to get him out of this funk.  

I had heard about Bushkill Falls from a friend and when I looked it up online it said \”The Niagara Falls of Pennsylvania\”.    What the heck, off we went.  It was about an 80 mile drive and is located in the Delaware Water Gap.

It wasn\’t quite what we expected as it was pretty crowded and had a touristy feeling to it but it was a new adventure on a beautiful day.

There were walkways all around the falls so you could get a really close look.  And lots of bridges that crossed over the falls.  It has rained quite a bit in the last week so the falls did not disappoint.

And this one would jump on a log or rock and say \”take my picture!\”.  He has perfected the cheesy smile.

Finishing up this beautiful day with some ice cream.

And yes, I was one happy mama on Mother\’s Day!

Elvis is in the House

Tuesday night was the Spring Performance for Quinn\’s class and the theme was the Rockin\’ 50\’s.  We were very excited for this show because we knew that Quinn was going to play the part of Elvis.  And it didn\’t disappoint.

Three classes participated in the performance and they always start and end with a joint performance.  Quinn\’s class is in white t-shirts in the back row.

All the kids had a one liner and Quinn\’s was \”I was born to hand jive baby\”.  It\’s ironic that I\’m sure I\’ve heard that exact line from Don previously 🙂

And the video.

And then came the hoopers.  Quinn and his little buddy Aidan.

And the video.

And then the moment we were waiting for.

He was really swinging his hips!

And the must see video.

And Elvis closes the show

Ms. Kate has a soft spot for our little Elvis which you can clearly see.  She was so happy and proud of him.

We were so happy and proud for him too.  We love you Elvis.
