May 2016 saw lots and lots of rain and cold. It wasn’t until the end of the month that spring and summer started to emerge. That meant finding lots of ways to expend energy, including a two-for-one day of fun with Aidan at the bounce house place and Josh at the trampoline park. Colin slept…

A Night Out on the Town
After a highly successful Fiesta 5K to benefit ALS research, we got to spend a fabulous afternoon and evening in Baltimore! While highly centered around good food in the Inner Harbor and Little Italy, we had the bonus of great family and friends to share it with!
Running…er, I mean, walking for a good cause!
After the disappointment of having last year’s Fiesta 5k cancelled, Team Big Walt and Mike came back to Baltimore ready to make an impact. Finishing in the top 10 for team fundraising, we did just that for ALS research! And, with all our team members crossing in finish line in about an hour or less,…
Thomas Take Two!
After a fun (albeit much warmer) outing last year, the Tuckers set their eyes on a temporary Sodor to get a ride from Thomas the Train! This time, friends joined the journey to make it an even better affair! While it was a chilly, rainy day, it didn’t dampen the spirits of our junior train…
Meeting Savannah
While we spent most of our week on Hilton Head, we did enjoy a few days exploring Savannah – a beautiful city on the water. We ate well, took in some history and played in one of the coolest children’s museums around!
Southern Living on HHI
Spring break took us a little further south to Hilton Head Island this year. The laid-back break was just what we needed to recharge. But, the outdoor exploration, copious amounts of candy and ice cream and chilly pool and beach kept our heart rates up!
Under the Big Top
Colin’s first trip to the circus was to the extreme with Barnum and Bailey’s Xtreme Circus. The day began with snow (it was well into April), continued with extreme concession prices and ended with one crazy fun show! There were acrobats and animals, feats of strength and fireworks. A great time!
Friends or Superheroes?
It had been over four months, so we were due to get the “Hoya” kids together! The weather held out for an afternoon in the park, followed by pizza and “late night” March Madness. A great weekend with great friends!
Easter for the Ages
Easter seems to have become the holiday of chocolate, so naturally it’s one of Colin’s most favorite days of the year! And, this one didn’t disappoint, especially when you add a ton of Legos, cousins to play with and bunny-shaped pancakes for breakfast!
