Since we were visiting we thought we would celebrate JP's birthday. We had a fun time and the kids made a mess with the water balloons, Jamie and his bright ideas always causing trouble.
We went to the Berkshires to particpate for Team Eric in the relay. This is the 4th year Theresa has captained the team and she continues to raise a ton of money and do a ton of work to keep fighting cancer in Eric's memory. We weren't able to go last year since JP had just been born so it was great to be able to go again, although with the 2 little ones I don't feel like we are much help, but we were able to get a couple of hours of walking in. We got some great pictures, check out the 2 cuties in the onsies :-) JP & Ashley!!
Jamie had a nice Father's Day. We had a fun Breakfast out and then he was able to go see Indiana Jones and then out to dinner, it was a busy and fun day.
We got to go to Game 2 of the NBA playoff's. It was an awesome game and saw Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul Jabar, it was pretty cool the be there as the Celtics returned to their glory. Like it was when I was younger.
A year goes by too fast...JP is one already. Seems like just yesterday I was complaining he was taking too long to get out, giving me back pain. He isn't quite walking yet, but he loves to walk pushing behind something. He is starting to get brave and stand up for a second without holding on to anything. Maddie helped make his birthday cupcakes, (she such a good big sister, when she wants to be, ha-ha). I sent cupcakes for his birthday to Ms. Jan's house and they said he did not like them, but at home he enjoyed playing with them and feeding them to Daddy. We are planning a party so all the kids can get together and play outside in the water slide, bouncy house and pool. Should be fun.
This is to keep everyone updated on our family. We tried to set up a couple of websites, but I thought this would be a better option. A friend has one for her family and I thought that sounds like a great idea. So I hope everyone enjoys. I will try to update often with stories and pictures.
