Playing at the park.
We love Imagination Station. Mom calls it the Hand in Hand park and you all from Virginia know why.
Taking guitar lessons.
We now have a guitar instructor and are taking guitar lessons again. We are so glad!
Swimming.
We enjoyed the neighborhood pool this summer and it was almost like having our very own pool - without the work! We are almost always the only people there!
Going to AWANA.
Dad is a SPARK leader, along with Nic. Ethan and I are TandT leaders. Olivia is in 1st grade and she is in SPARKS and Eli is in 5th grade and is in TandT. Mom and Clare are AWOL.
Hanging out with friends.
After a lonely first year in Chattanooga it is nice to finally have friends.
Celebrating Nic's birthday. Nic turned 14 on September 3rd. Mom and Dad are currently working on a plan to stop all of us from getting any older. They talk about it all the time.
Watching football.
It's football season and at the Moran house we watch as much as we can. We are Hokies first and foremost and also VOLS. Our best friends are always saying, "Roll Tide" so we are a little bit of that. Papaw B is a major WVU fan so we have a little of that running in the veins. I guess it can be summed up by saying the Morans are football fans.
Celebrating Nic some more.
Essentially Nic had 2 parties. One wild with friends, one tame with the family. We picked up this multi-birthday party habit from those BFFs I mentioned earlier. ROLL TIDE!
If reading to a baby makes them smart than Clare will ace the SAT before kindergarten. The 7 of us read to her all the time. What can you do when she holds up a book to you and signs "please" with her chubby little hands?
Bringing in our garden.
Ahhh...success! We've been able to harvest some crops. Next year will be even better I hope.
Kids: Too much school work!
Parents: Not enough school work!
UGH.
Being silly and having fun.
This is a long story so I will give you a brief version. Clare likes to "dress up" with a dishtowel.
More school.
Kids:
Oh yeah, I already mentioned that.
Going to the beach.
So much fun!
That's what the Moran Clan has been up to!
