Father's Day 2010

Our father's day adventure (what we call our days out at the moment) was to go hiking. After I made pancakes and Chris opened his presents, we were off! Hiking was something we used to do all the time with Regina. When Richie came along, we still got out often enough. Now that we have Angela....well, it has been a while. So this adventure was an exciting one for all of us. PLUS, it was practice for the Trout Club.
Well as you can see from these pictures, the kids loved it! We brought 2 backpacks in case Richie melted down half way out, but he didn't. He walked the whole way and continued to tell us how much fun he was having. At one point he tripped and skinned his elbow pretty good. But without much fuss, he got right back up and kept going.
We finished our night with dinner at home with Aunt Erin and Uncle Matt. I made dinner including grilling the hamburgers!!
Happy Father's Day to all of our friends and family. Especially those not with us today!

Singing the ABC's

So I finally got it on camera although it isn't his best effort. For those of you who have been around us recently, you know how Rich sings the ABC song ALL DAY LONG. It is obviously his favorite song and he is really good at it! In this video he misses a lot of the letters because he does not want to be taped. But he literally knows all the letters and the ending. I guess he was developing his verbal skills when he was sitting on his bottom for all those months NOT crawling. This was taken this morning and I had to bribe his with a cookie. It was only 9 am, but it was the only way I could get him to do it for the camera.

An absolutely beautiful day for my Angela Jane!  She looked absolutely gorgeous and she couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.  She celebrated with her family and then with friends who feel like family now.  We are truly blessed! Brunch with family at Monica's and then a bbq at the Crocini's. How cute is she with her bbf's?!?!?!

Celtics courtside!!

Image
At 5:00 Chris got a call from a customer (who happens to live across the street), asking if we wanted his seats for the pre-season Celtics game tonight.  Of course we do!  Yes, it was the first game of the World Series and the Red Sox were playing, but you still can't beat going to a game. Chris had a feeling this guy had good seats, but when we arrived at Row A the kids were ecstatic.  Courtside, directly behind the players seats!  It was so awesome!   They were just feet from us and they were huge.  We could hear the plays they were going to run and then watched them run them.  Angela didn't love the seats because we were almost too close and she had trouble seeing over the 6'7" players!  The game was on ESPN and we were so close to the court that we were also on TV a lot.  My Mom was able to tell me what we were wearing because she watched it.  I found a quick link below.  You can see how close we were. ...
