Happy Birthday to ME!

For my birthday we went to Gunlock Reservoir to go boating. Michael came down for the weekend to hang out with us. We all had a great time on the boat. After boating we went to one of my favorite places to eat-Cafe Rio. We then went back to the house for cake and ice cream. What a great birthday for me! I did really well on the wake board which made the day even better.

The turtle we call Baloo and other water friends

For Anthony's birthday he wanted a pet. He finally decided on a turtle that he named Baloo. Allyson and Stryder also got pets. They each got two fish. They are so excited to have new additions to the family.

JAZZ FANS

We went to a mini Jazz camp this afternoon. The Jazz player was Kyrylo Fesenko. He is huge. The kids had to do drills and free throws. He also told us about his rookie season and a lot of funny stories about other players. At the end he signed balls for the kids. They had a great time.

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

Today is the first day of school. Anthony is in 6th grade and goes to an Intermediate school with 6 different periods. Stryder is in 1st grade and is really excited to play on the big kid play ground. Allyson doesn't start school until September, but she already has her High School Musical backpack ready.

Anthony turns 11!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANTHONY! I can't believe Anthony is already 11. David had the banner made for Anthony's birthday. He loves football especially the New England Patriots. He is a PI RHO in the making with the birthday candles. It's all about the fire. We hope you have a great birthday!

Birthday Bliss

For Anthony's birthday he wanted to have a pizza party/ slip-n-slide/ water balloon party. It was a great plan until the storm blew in. We still had a fun time even though is wasn't 100 degrees outside. The boys had contests to see how far they could slide on their stomachs and on the boogie board. Anthony and Kaden won. It was warm enough for the ice cream sandwiches to melt all over their hands.

Arrow of Light

Anthony worked really hard to achieve his Arrow of Light. I was lucky to have the opportunity to work with him and watch him learn and grow. He is such a great young man. It is exciting to see what new things he comes up with.
