Last First Day of School

In honor of my kids' last day of school, I'm posting pictures from the first day of school. I'm a tad behind. I now officially have a 1st grader and a 2nd grader! They are growing up WAY too fast!

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia...

Whoever named that show obviously doesn't spend much time here. Lately it seems like it's ALWAYS raining in Philadelphia. Fortunately, this weekend, we had sunshine!

Danny had his first t-ball game in weeks. Six out of the past seven games have been cancelled due to rain. He has been so disappointed. The kid LOVES baseball!

Danny says that he wants to be a pro baseball player when he grows up. Matt and I are probably a tad biased, but we think the kid has some serious talent:)

(Danny also says he wants to be an engineer so he can make a hover board)

Getting a little advice from the Assistant Coach aka-Dad

This kid makes his Dad so proud! When Danny was playing first base, the other team's coach said, "I'm loving this kid's arm. Seriously, someone draft this kid!"

I couldn't get the lens cap off fast enough to snap a picture of Matt BEAMING.

Brandywine Trail

About 10 minutes into our walk, I realized that Ben needed a diaper change. Then I realized that we didn't bring the diaper bag. I ran back to the car while Matt waited with the kids. Matt got a turn to run back to the car a few minutes later, when we realized we also forgot his food.

Changed, fed, and out cold

We had such a great weekend! It was fun while it lasted.

Cowboys and Mickey Mouse

A few weeks ago we flew to Florida to celebrate Michael Jackson's 60th birthday with a surprise party. The Jackson Five--Matt, Morgen, Jen (and her +1 Jordan) , Klarissa, and Mariah came for the big celebration. After a long and cold Philly winter, we were SO looking forward to a little Florida sunshine. Originally, our plan was to arrive Wednesday evening and take the kids on a surprise trip to Disney World the next day. Unfortunately, the stomach bug that my kids had a week prior hit me the second we landed and I threw up all the way to Cocoa. I was feeling good as new a couple days later and was able to enjoy the rest of the trip. The party was a success, we made it to Disney World, and we even managed to squeeze in a trip to the Brevard Zoo.
