Last Day in Virginia

Today was our last day in Virginia. We went to church with Mike and his family. Preston was excited to go to Skye's class. Their teacher told me that Preston sat with his arm around Skye during sharing time. He's going to miss her!

After church, we played at Skye's house. I played webkinz with Skye and Larkin. Larkin was pretty funny and would get the computer to do crazy things. In the picture below, you can see the purple flower I'm wearing in my hair. Skye really wanted me to wear one of her bows. She picked this one out. She also wanted Preston to wear one, but I nicely told her that wasn't going to happen.

Skye dropped us off at the airport (with Mike). I thought it was funny that they assigned Preston and I different seats again. We got those switched pretty easily. I found it even funnier that I was put in loading group 4 while Preston was put in loading group 5. I can just see me getting on the plane first and telling Preston to come on in a few minutes.

Now I am back home and in bed! I sat down to do my blog and was shocked to find out I have Mike and Christen's camera card in my laptop! Oops! Sorry about that. Hope no one wanted to see pictures of your trip across the country.

A Day at the Park with Skye

Mike and I took Skye and Preston to the park while Christen and her sisters packed. Those two had a lot of fun together. For the record, Skye is NOT shy around Preston. Too bad we don't live closer, they would probably be the best of friends.

Mike had sharp eyes and spotted a frog. In honor of Jorja we had to stop and play with it for a little while. They have a frozen yogurt shop here that is named Sweet Frog, or something like that. I know frog is in the name. I thought, Jorja would suddenly become a frozen yogurt fan if she saw this store!
Where's Froggie?

Preston and Skye loved to jump on these circles. They could have done that for hours. Thankfully they didn't. There are some big, colorful fish that swim here. I've never seen anything like it.

When we got home, Mike made yummy steak and hamburgers. Preston ate an entire steak. Jorja would have been proud. While we were there, I got some pictures from Mike. Below are more pictures from yesterday.

Dr. Michael Millburn

We got to go see the hooding ceremony for my brother Mike today. It was really neat, but I wish I had brought my video camera. It's probably better that I didn't because I would have recorded it on pause anyway. But, I wish I had them saying "Dr. Michael John Millburn" and parts of his ceremony. It was really good.

Preston gave Skye and Larkin each an arctic fox webkinz. Skye carried hers around most of the day. Preston brought his webkinz named Skye. Skye decided to name her fox Skye - now there are three Skyes! Larkin named hers Foxie. Christen has some cute pictures of Preston & the girls playing together. I'll have to get them. He is having a blast here!

After the "gradulation ceremony" as Skye would say, we went to California Pizza Kitchen. I ate way too much, but it was delicious. Preston loved it too. They brought out sundaes for Mike's graduation and Grandma's birthday. The kids loved that.

Preston has LOVED playing with Skye and Larkin. He is now crashed out on the bed in our hotel room. It's nice that it has free internet, although it was even nicer yesterday having FREE internet on the airplane. Preston played Webkinz the entire time. What a life!
