The end to many things...

It may be the beginning of the summer, but this week was PACKED with the end of many things/events/times for the Surratt Pack! The rush of summer is on and I think the best way of explaining our week is through pix... enjoy...

Here is Kyle - our little fish! He is nearly a danger to himself in the pool... we really need to get this kid into swim lessons - he is FEARLESS! We spent the afternoon at Bebe's house saying goodbye to her amazing house and pool! We have had soooo many great times there and will always have those memories. Most importantly, we'll have tons of new memories now that Bebe will live so close to us!!Riley graduated from Preschool! Her school put on a GREAT show at Cool Spring Elementary and Riley walked across stage on her own and sang beautifully!
Ri and her man, Conner. Conner is the cutie who gave Riley a monster solid chocolate kiss for valentines day... we are keeping on eye on this one:-) He is moving too fast for our taste:-)
Riley and 3 other girls had a little solo where they waved rainbows in front of the stage while singing a rainbow song!
Kyle and his buddy Grayson from school

The rest of the weekend was spent at 2 birthday parties and watching Lexa perform in her gymnastics recital. She is such a GREAT gymnast!
A lot of babies were born recently as well and we brought meals to 4 of them this weekend. Luckily we were able to spend a little time with Berkeley and her crew! The girls loved holding baby David!
Berk, Grant, and baby David - soooo cute!!


We also had our last tennis class for the season. As it turns out, both girls are pretty good and really enjoy tennis! Yippee!!
Kyle at tennis - he can't wait till he is old enough to jump into the action! soon, very soon!
Riley also got to get all dressed up for pix day at dance class, therefore also her last dance class!
She is going to miss the recital but I got some video of the girls during practice this night (not the official dress rehearsal, we miss that too) and I'll try to post those later.
The best part of dance for Riley is definitely being able to wear make up for these pix!!

DelFest 2010

Year two - DelFest, Awesome! We had such a great time again this year and even though I was skeptical of the rain, I'm in again for next year! When we 1st pulled up, the skies opened...

This is us sitting in the car, praying the rain would stop so the next 4 days wouldn't be miserable! See the rain behind us... there was LOTS!


The rain died down for a moment, so the adult jumped out and attempted to put tents up and got very wet! The kids played in the tents for a while till another storm came through and Riley had a spell of PTSD as a result of last years storm!! She got through it and below is a pix of the girls after the storm blew through and music was on! (They are dancing and shaking their booties!)


Eric and Justin out at Music Meadow (Lexa and Kyle in the left corner playing)

We got Riley and Lexa their own hoops this year - they are definitely future hoop dancers!
Cool man Kyle at the side stage taking in some bluegrass!
The kids played soooo well and loved the music and tent living!
Our hooping queens! Aside from the hooping, Riley favorite part of the trip was the cotton candy they had the last night we were there.
This is Riley late night (nearly 10pm! Unheard of back home!) She also slept till 9am every day - also unheard of back home!

E & K chillin!
