Ocean City 2009!!! It was a such a wonderful vacation!!! We created such funny, sweet, joyful memories together. Pop-pop was so happy to have his family start out as a family of five and today stand at eleven. We laughed a lot, ate dad's decadent dinners, and enjoyed eachothers company. I must mention one particular funny memory so i don't forget: Theo covering himself with vaseline and Pop-pop discovering him at the top of the steps with his arms outstretched. ha!!! Pop-pop and I laughed so hard. And i loved that one night where we talked for hours in the front room, laughing about what we'd do if we won the lottery. Everyone made fun of me and my water filtration daydream! Danny was the only one who would share his with the family. We thought he'd start a Kaz Island- but he said we'd find him then. ha! I just feel so thankful for my family and for the love that surrounds us all. What a great summer!

Theo found my camera....

saved my pennies and bought our family a gorgeous and fabulous new ride! to new adventures!

Nena's Art Show in Philadelphia

We're so proud of our Nena. She had a very prestigious art show at the Muse Gallery in Old City, Philadelphia. When we got into the city, Theo told the parking garage attendant "We're going to see Nena's art!" Theo was very into the art and the chocolate chip cookies (he's eating one in this picture). Nena's work constantly inspires me! Go Nena!

Nena and Pop-pop preparing for babysitting

Nena and Pop-pop came over to babysit the boys so Matt and I could have a sweet date extravaganza! They arrived sleepy and kissy. The boys must have sensed they were in the house- they woke up early from their naps and the games began. Thank you SO MUCH mom and dad, for the opportunity to hang out with my awesome hubby! It meant so much to us:) and the boys:) LOVE YA!!!!

Noni and Theo, a few minutes ago

Noni created Theo's "jester hat" made from a pair of yellow baby shorts. Here- Theo is the intimidating dinosaur as Noni plays the mouse.

The Jester show was on....

We love you noni!!!
