Roanoke Fire-EMS 100th Anniversary Celebration

Preston, Jade, Becky , and I enjoyed the day at Fire Station #1 for the 100th Anniversary. Preston is pictured below with the Dalmatians from the Dalmatian Rescue, and then sitting in the Tiller of Ladder 1 .

Roanoke's St. Patrick's Day Parade

Here are some pictures of the children at the Roanoke St. Patrick's Day Parade in Downtown Roanoke.



The children had a blast watching all the floats, firetrucks, and clowns even though it was extremely cold out.
After the Parade, we enjoyed lunch at Macado's downtown Roanoke.

Preston catches a Bass at the pond


While we were up on the Mountain, Preston wanted to go fishing with his new fishing rod that his best buddy Steven got him. He caught a couple of fish, this being the biggest of the day. It was cool out and we were only able to fish for a little while.

Preston and Jade enjoy the Virginia Museum of Transportation

A couple of weeks ago, I had a book signing at the Virginia Museum of Transportation and realized that the children hadn't been to the museum in quite a while. Becky was out of town, so we visited the museum the following day.
