Philly

Loved the mosaic walls near the restaurant where we had brunch for Deedee's birthday.

9 years

Has it been that many?  It seemed to fly.  Three kids, a minivan, and a mortgage later, I'm still that same giddy girl watching for his car to cruise down the street at the end of the day.  He is still my favorite.

Back to your regularly scheduled program

The kiddos at the pool with their cousin having a blast.  The boys deep in concentration at the counter while I cook.  One of my favorite sights in the world.

An assortment

These are random pictures from the last couple months taken with the camera on our "little computer".
#1 Luca in his bug costume for a play at school.  He was so proud of me for making it for him.
#2 I think my brother Gerry used to do this.  Actually James and his uncle have similar personalities.  And let me say for the record, he wanted me to post this.
#3  Neat abandoned hotel in Philly.  I have a fascination with places like this...and I want to know the story of their fall from grace...
#4 Kind of into trying things I see on hair blogs.  Did this for a friend going to a gala. 
#5 My hair today:-)

Firsts

Libby let me braid her hair today for the first time!

. However, she would not allow me to dress her in clothes:-)

firepants

We made PJ pants today.  The boys each picked their own fabric.  While Luca perused the options and took his time to decide on a pirate print, James was drawn immediately to these flames and wouldn't consider anything else.

Visit to Ithaca

We had a super trip to Ithaca.  We played in the dirt, hiked, made fires, got bit by bugs, picked berries, discovered Grandma's Swiss chard, cut down trees, worked in grandpa's wood shop, saw a play, saw old friends, and went to a wedding too!  It was a blast (except for the bugs).  Rachelle was gorgeous as always.
