Together

This past weekend, TJ and I had the chance to be in Pennsylvania and watch/play with my niece and nephew while their parents were out of town. Although during the week I stressed about getting them to school, picking them up on time, and making it to piano lesson...we made it through all of that and topped off the week with lots of fun to include: bowling in Jersey, winning new toy animals, playing "mannequin" within store display windows at the mall, practicing dance moves at the arcade, seeing the Disney movie, "Race to Witch Mountain", and singing to High School Musical on the Wii.

My Favorite

Brantley: Hey Scott, I have special magical powers where I can move things with my mind.
Scott: Oh yah, well move this (pointing to his toy dog).
Brantley: You don't understand, I can only move certain things.
Scott: Like what?
Brantley: Like split peas.

Thanks Again

I want to thank TJ's parents, sister and other family members for planning a "Wedding Party, Part II" for all of those who couldn't make it to our wedding in December. TJ's Dad did a great job finishing the basement in order to have it ready for the party. The pictures were so thoughtful and all of the food and cakes were absolutely yummy. Having so many family members support us and share the time with us made for a very special night. Thank you Joan and Tom for being such great hosts to a successful family party (and for helping us get our keys when we were locked out of our home so we could make it)! We love you!

Mug Shots

Taking pictures of himself with Lucy, was TJ's (second) idea of fun after playing in the snow (which was his first idea).

Snow Day

We know that April showers brings May flowers, but what does March bring? A snow day! There's nothing like waking up to a fresh blanket of white on the ground! I got into my winter best...snowboard pants, coat and beanie and headed outside with TJ and Lucy to capture the moment. Let's just say that the shoveling didn't last too long. See for yourself.
