Just a little fun!


O.K.  so we find some silly things for entertainment.  Our glass table has been fun with all the kids.  They LOVE to climb under it and watch everyone.  Well it is more than tempting to throw a few pieces of food on the table and watch them try to grab it.  Here are Michael and Patrick.

These two are double trouble.



Patrick decided to get the food and quite fooling around.

The Farm House

The Farm house is almost 100 years old.  It has been in the same family the entire time.  We bought the house from a woman who's grandfather had built it himself.  It was in bad shape.  Our friend Kevin who told us about it was dying to work on it.  He has been a huge blessing.  He has completely restored this home.  It is really amazing.  I tease him and say his reward is in heaven for this job because he sure isn't getting paid what it is worth.  We are about two weeks from moving in.  The next time I go I will take some new pictures.  Many people having been asking so I thought I would do just a little something about the house.

The house is lifted and ready to be moved in this picture.
The house has been moved back.  Look at the trees in both pictures.

Crazy Eyed!


Thanks Grammy for the fun eyes!  This is how we feel sometimes in our CRAZY house.  LOL!   It's no wonder I don't really look like that.

Birthday at the Beach!

This is my favorite picture.  It's Sofia.

I think this was my best birthday yet!  We enjoyed a day on the beach.  The Jersey shore is so beautiful and fun.  I do have to say the water was so cold it took my breath away.  I was trying to take some pictures of the kids while they were playing and had no idea the temp as a wave rushed up and hit my legs.  I screamed and ran.  You would have even imagined it was  slightly cold by watching them play.  They loved it!  

Uncle Steve is a big beach guy and surfer, so we had to spend a day with him there.  The kids had a blast as you can see by the pictures.  He is as big of a kid as they are.  Oh and Steve they are looking forward to more surfing lessons.  

We are so spoiled by all our many family and friends when we are home.  Thank you so much to all!  We love you!


Nothing like a 60 degree rinse

On the Road Again!

We are now home from a whirlwind two week trip to New Jersey.  Two weeks seems like a long
time until you travel home with us to see all the family and friends we are so blessed to have.  The main event was Lars and Becky's wedding.  What a blessing to add another woman to the family.  I wish I could say that I have great pictures of the wedding but that did not happen.  I was too busy with my little friends.  I did however get a few fun pictures at the rehearsel.


Pappy and Princess Lili
He's up to something.
What a great big brother!
Martha loving on Grammy
Lili is wondering what's for dinner???
