Backyard Beach

The backyard was transformed to a paradise hangout for the kids.  Green trees, tiki torches, a pool and a swank picnic area.  We spent most of the day outside and it was very enjoyable.

A backyard paradise.  Enjoy before the real heat sets in!

Christmas Day

Christmas finally came to our house and the kids were very happy about it. Santa spoiled the kids and Halle rotten but they appreciated it.

The kids even had plenty of surprises in their stockings.

They loved all of their presents and treats but the biggest surprise is when they found out we are going to Disney World.

Afterward, we all went over to Nonna and Pop's house for some Christmas company and some Christmas dinner. We all enjoyed seeing everyone and the kids enjoyed playing with Dylan.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Christmas Day

Today was Christmas day and everyone was very excited. The kids and Halle all got spoiled by Santa.

Their stockings were filled as well.

The biggest surprise of all was that they found out we are Disney World bound.

Afterward we went to Nonna and Pop's for more easter fun with cousins and other family.

Owen's End of School Year Program

Owen's school had their annual graduation and end of year program last night. Owen sang several songs and sang them well.

Of course, he still stopped to take the time to wave "hi" to mommy and daddy.

Both of us and his teachers are very proud of him.

The Emperor's New Kitchen

Elizabeth got a new kitchen playset this weekend.  She knew exactly what to do with it.

The kitchen playset even had a place to put your baby and feed it.  Elizabeth even knew what to do with that too.

She's going to be quite a chef, like her Pop, when she grows up.
