Musical Concerts

We are very lucky that the kids have such great exposure to music through school and outside school activities. We were sure to include musical activities when they were younger and its great to see that they have continued.

Aidan had his spring music concert at Latin School. He plays the trombone in the 7th grade band. This year the concert honored alum Leonard Bernstein on his 100th birthday. Here are links to his performances.

We love seeing the boys perform and hope music continues to be part of their lives.

Olivia’s First Communion

We were so excited to celebrate Olivia’s First Communion! Even more exciting for Brendan, that we got to help pick out her dress and he got to do her hair. Such a special day!

Our Circus Tradition

For years we have taken the kids to the Big Apple Circus. Chris’ parents enjoy coming with us as well. It had been on City Hall Plaza and our adventure involved taking the bus (always fun with little kids). Last year there was no circus as the Big Apple Circus filed for bankruptcy. We missed going and the kids even mentioned missing the tradition realizing the spring past without our trip. But this year it is back- at a different location- but still the same circus we have enjoyed for years!
