Happy 200th Birthday, Abraham Lincoln!!

The 2nd graders in Princeton brought home the story "Abraham Lincoln's Hat". Families then were to create a hat that they could use to hold something special. Here's Michael's own creation.........

Happy 8th Birthday, Michael!!

We took Michael to Chuck E. Cheese for his birthday. It was not a "party" since we had that in July! We were so excited because Jill and the girls were able to meet us in Joliet and it was fun to see them again!

Chuck E. Cheese and the 2nd Graders! Madison wasn't near by and Genevieve only liked him from a distance!
We were so lucky and happy that Grandma and Grandpa let Daddy off of work because it wouldn't have been the same without him there!!

Genevieve is getting so big......she'll be able to drive before we know it!

Michael's birthday kiss from Jill. He was proving to Daniel that kisses aren't gross.......looks to us like he really is enjoying it!

Disney 2008 - Mom, Lynette, and Me

Mom, Lynette, and I headed to Disney for a girl's only weekend! It was a once in a lifetime opportunity for me to spend some time with my mom and sister at the "Happiest Place on Earth" :). (Once in a lifetime because mom will most likely NEVER go back!

Best Friends (sometimes!)

A Weekend in Indiana

We went to Indiana to visit the DeGaetano's for Adina's birthday! Tony and I headed out Friday with Michael, Daniel, and Gen. Karin came on Saturday. We spent a fun Friday at the hotel pool. Saturday was a busy day with Madison's soccer tournament, more swimming, and Adina's party at the theater. We went to see High School Musical 3. The kids enjoyed it! On Sunday, we were able to spend some time shopping before heading back home. We are already planning on heading back sometime soon :).
