3 Kids and a Dog

First Day of School
Here are the kids on their first day of school. I think I went through a bit of a crisis. Riley said I was acting weird all day. I think I just didn't know what to do with myself. Riley had the day off, but tomorrow I'll have the whole house to myself! This is so different! And the battery to the camera went thru the wash, so we used the computer camera.
They all had a good day. Each of them found his/her class and made it home on the right bus. Goodbye summer! And hello school!

Growing Up

Emmaus Parade
Swimming Lessons
The kids are done with swimming lessons. It went just for a week, but they each learned a lot.
Amy didn't like it the first day. She cried. Then the next day she loved it.
Elli just swam and swam. When they did the torpedo, she went the farthest without taking a breath. The teachers kept telling her she could only come up for one breath and then stop. She was.
Adam didn't think he learned anything, but he can swim the real way and breath the real way now. No doggy paddle for him anymore. They all want to take it again next year. They all did a great job!

GIANT SLUG!
Adam Turns Nine!
Taking the Metro
Riley had a conference in Washington, D.C. last weekend and the families were invited to come. We saw the Pentagon, the Capitol, the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History, and the Evening Parade at 8th and I . The easiest way to get around was to take the Metro. Once we figured it out, it wasn't too bad. There was a stop right by our hotel. The kids had fun, but were sure to hold our hands wherever we went.
A few times it wasn't too crowded, but most of the time we were all standing around a pole.
The Pentagon
Riley had meetings all morning at the Pentagon. The families got to come along. Some wives without kids took a tour of the building while those with kids walked around and saw the memorial outside. I knew we couldn't take pictures inside the Pentagon, but I thought outside was OK.

House Pictures, finally!
Alright everyone, but mostly Mom. Here are all the pictures of the house. I didn't get the basement, but it has my sewing stuff and the toys. the pictures are a bit blurry, sorry about that. Hopefully, though, you'll be able to put the pictures together and get an idea of what it's like. The neighborhood is full of town homes squished together, but once you get inside you don't feel squished. Oh, and by the way... we moved to Macungie, Pennsylvania. Riley is attached to a reserve unit in Allentown. We should be here about 3 years.
Front Room and Entry
Family Room
Kitchen and Yard
This is the eat in kitchen. I was pretty worried there wouldn't be enough room for the table, but there is plenty. We took down a border and painted. I still need to paint one of the chairs.
The deck is right off the side of the kitchen. Not a huge yard, but Riley bought an old fashioned push mower, so it seems big on grass cutting days. The neighbor keeps offering his lawn mower whenever Riley mows it.
