Long awaited update

Well folks i'm finally getting around to updating our web page, sorry it's taken soo long I've been neglecting it a bit. Oops!!!

We've been doing lots of exciting things since the last update as you can see from the photos below.

Weekend with the Kearns family.

The last weekend in February we left Mclean early on Saturday morning and drove for 3hours to the Kearns' house near Phili. That day we went to Lancaster county to see an Amish house and then to Shady Maple - this was Aaron's favouriate part of our stay. Shady Maple is a huge carvery style resturant with a massive gift shop in the basement. No-one left there hungry!!

Rita's house in Pittsburg

On the first friday evening in March, Leona, Graeme, Aaron, myself and Chloe travelled to Rita O'Malley's house for the weekend. We didn't arrive until 1am and so were all very tired!!!

The next morning Rita took us out for breakfast - it was lovely!!there were omlettes, crepes, potatoes and of course a full Irish breakfast. We then headed for the country to spot some Amish people (and their buggies). That evening we ate in a nice resturant and went up the incline which gave us a great view of the city and of course the pwc building which just happens to be the tallest building in Pittsburg. We all went to church on Sunday morning which was very different to anything we'd been used to(not like the Free P's)!!! Sunday afternoon was spent with Rita's parents who cooked us a lovely dinner- it was great CRAIC!!!

Skiing at Liberty Mountain

Leona, Chloe and myself went into Georgetown fot lunch and a look around while the boys (Graeme, Lochi and Aaron) went skiing!!!They all really enjoyed the slopes - Lochi even snow boarded down the black run!! Saturaday was a very sunny and hot day so when the boys arrived back we could do nothing but laugh - Aaron with his burnt red face minus 2stripes where the sunglasses had been, Graeme with his white head from wearing a hat and Lochi the Aussie who should have had more sense in the sun!!!
