Happy 8th Birthday Nick!

Hapy 8th Birthday Nick! I can't believe my baby is so big. To celebrate he is having ice cream for breakfast and talking on the phone with his best friend Jake! What a great way to start his day!

Kelsey's Riding Lesson with Ty

Kelsey is once again taking riding lessons this summer. Here are a few pics from her recent lessons with Ty.

The Grande Luau June 20, 2009

Our neighborhood had a big Luau party of June 20th. Of course it rained almost the entire day. We had games for the kids, a dj and tons of food and fun. I think even with all the planning I did for the games, the favorite activity was dancing in the rain and puddle jumping! Kelsey even learned how to make balloon dogs for her friends. I think Rob's favorite part was the coconuts. Nick just loved being silly and wet and muddy for a whole day. What a fun day!

Sorry I have gotten so behind with blogging. Here are a few pictures of the kids end of the year school activities. Nick was in a program at school with his class. Kelsey had a science day complete with her own scientist Dad who came to class and did cool experiments with the kids.

Tony & Tammy & Nathan's visit

Tony & Tammy & Nathan came to New Jersey for a visit the first weekend of June. We traveled to Maryland for our cousin Meredith's high school graduation. While we were there Tony, Tammy, Rob & I were able to spend a day sight seeing in Washington DC and the cousins went to see the Disney movie "Up". Thanks for babysitting Grammy Gloria & Aunt Glenda. Thanks to Uncle Tom for doing the chauffeuring!!! Then we all joined up for dinner at Bucca di Beppo. The following day we were back in Jersey and the kids enjoyed playing in the pool and sprinkler. The kids can't wait to see Nathan again in Iowa in 2 weeks!
