We had a picnic earlier today, and the kids wore their Easter outfits that Nanni sent.
Our two characters...
Princess Fia with her homemade princess hat...
Picnic along the Potomac...
Show and tell -- look what Nanni sent!
More princess dresses for me?!
Ahhh, a boy's favorite! A "Flarping" noisemaker! For HOURS of hysterical entertainment...
When Meghan and Maille visited, Gabe felt like a little stud.
Playing at Clemyjontri Park...
Gabe and Meghan monkeying around...
We dog-sat "Pah-kah" -- that's how Fia says "Parker" -- super cute little dog with an alpha attitude. Zoe was entertained. Dragon hid in the basement the whole time.Strange medical issues this month, so sorry I haven't been writing as often as usual. Probably just carpal tunnel syndrome -- I find out more this week.
Anyway, on to the kids, who are endless sources of entertainment!
Gabe had soccer camp this last week. It was spring break and he loved every second of it, especially time at Holly camp. :)
Sofia continues to ask if she's bigger yet. Don't anyone dare call her a baby girl or a little girl. You will get in big trouble. She's a BIG girl. Her new favorite thing is to dance in front of the mirror singing, "Bad boys. Bad boys. Whatchya gonna do? Whatchya gonna do when they come for you? Bad boys. Bad boys." (No, she has never seen the show "Cops." I have no idea where she picked this up.)
We had a great visit with the Dunne family, who visited a couple weeks ago now I guess. My favorite story from their visit is that the kids saw a woman dancing for money in Old Town and they decided to see if they could get in on the act from our front porch. We got back to the house and were like, "What on Earth are they up to?" Gabe was asking me, "Mom, can I have a big dish?" and "Mom, can I have a radio?" Meghan was writing very carefully on a piece of paper. Next thing you know, the four kids are on the front porch with a sign that reads, "50 cents or 50 dollars, 100 cents or 100 dollars" and they're saying, "QUICK! Dance. Here comes someone!" Totally hilarious! You gotta give it to them for attempting an enterprise. I think Tim and Sean had their own S & T Plumbing gig in elementary school too, although I don't know if they made much money with it... (LOL!)
I think with that, I'll just post some recent pix....enjoy!

K, those kids are so stinkin' cute it's ridiculous! And I LOVE the pics with the memorials in the background. Gorgeous.
And I'm not sure enterprising is an adequate term for them. I would say 'freakin genius.' :)
I can't get enough of your photos and stories. Can't wait to see y'all in June!
Not anyone can picnic on the Potomac! what great memories for your kids. Did have fun with you guys here in Jersey even butt time!
