Father's Day Pictures

2009-06-25T13:24:00.000-07:00

The week before Father's Day we went up to the Picture People with my brother and his wife and son to get a picture taken for my Father. Who would have thought to get one group picture of the 6 of us would be so hard. Thank God for one of the employees named Amy that made silly faces and acted Goofy to get Jordan's attention. In his words to the male photogapher "Oh God", brought everyone to smiles. Leave it up to my 2 in a half year old nephew to say something like that. We finally got our group picture for my father and this pic of my son Greggory and my nephew Jordan. These two are truely brothers from another mother..LOL..

Happy 9th Birthday Greggory

2009-05-13T21:00:00.000-07:00

Greggory spent his birthday with Grandma and his Mom at Chuckie Cheese. We all had a great time. I think Grandma may have had a little bit too much fun playing the Deal or No Deal game. Then we took Cupcakes down to Amber's house and had them with his cousins. Still can't believe that my little guy is 9 years old already. I remember the day that I had him and it felt like he had a brick in his butt. God, they sure do grow up fast don't they. Can you believe that he will be going into the 3rd grade next year.

Our New Jeep

2009-03-14T06:23:00.000-07:00

We bought this Jeep on March 7th after we were in a car accident with our 1997 Grand Cheeroke Laredo. We only had the White one on the road for almost two weeks before our accident.. What luck we have, don't we? Thanks to my sister-in-law and brother-in-law for selling us our new Jeep.

Wanna Go For A Ride???

2009-03-14T05:32:00.000-07:00

On Tuesday Morning, March 3rd, my Husband asked me if I wanted to go f0r a ride with him. I said sure. Well who would have ever thought what was going to happen next that day. As we were taken the short cut close to our house we hit a ice patch on the road. My husband tried to get our Jeep back on the road. As he done this, we must have hit a gravel patch with ice and again we were off and spinning. Well needless to say, the ending of this, didn't turn out good. Took out two mailbox's along the way and ended up rolled over so very close to a ditch. Thank God there was a guy in a tractor coming up the road and helped us out of the Jeep. He let me sit in his tractor until the emergency personals and ambulance people came. I was taken to General Hospital by ambulance. Was put on a backboard and neck brace, cause the lady saw me trying to move my neck. Of course it was going to be sore, I landed on my right side of my body and had a 350 lb hubby land on top of me to protect me from broken glass and to keep me inside of the jeep. My hubby refused treatment at the scene. He was bruised up as well and had cuts on him from the broken glass. I ended up with Whip Lash, facial contusions, and sinititus. Maybe I should just think twice anymore, if my Husband ask me if I want to go on a ride with him!!! I just want to end this with, Thank God we had ANGELS with us that day, cause the outcome of this accident should have been much worse as it was.

Trick Or Treat, Smell My Feet!!

2008-11-01T06:16:00.000-07:00

On October 31st, I went Trick and Treating with Anakin Skywalker. He went door to door telling people Happy Halloween and this joke: What is a Ghost favorite fruit? BOO-Berry!!! As we walked the streets lighted by his Lightsaber to collect candy we came across many different kids dressed in all sorts of costumes. We even heard a little girl tell people Happy Easter, even though her Grandmother was encouraging her to do so. Now to figure out what to be for next Halloween.. Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween.

Our Trip To Crystal Cave

2008-08-24T06:21:00.000-07:00

Gram, Poppy, Mommy and Daddy and Greggory all piled in the car and headed to Kutztown Pa to go to Crystal Caves. We went inside of the Cave to see all of the formations inside of it. Greggory went panning for arrow heads in the stream and got gems for his gem collection. Greggory really liked Crystal Cave and can't wait to go explore another cave soon.

Look What We Brought Home From The Zoo!!

2008-07-12T08:59:00.000-07:00

Well we decided that we would go down to the Philly Zoo for the day and asked Amber and Matt and their crew to go with us for the day. Well we went down with 5 kids but came back with Spiderman, Flower Power Girl, and Batman. Who would have ever thought that they would be at the Zoo the same time that we were. Had a great time at the zoo. The kids rode the Camels, Ponies, the Draft Horses, and even went on the PZ Express. They also played in the treehouse for abit. I'm going back down on the 26th, I wonder what character I will find down there that day.

Fun in the Sun

2008-06-27T06:10:00.000-07:00

We spent the week of June 14th thru the 21st in Ocean City, Maryland. We went down once again with a group of our friends like we did last year. This year we all went on the Duckaneer Pirate Ship. Grandma had her face painted like a Pirate and we were trying to get our treasure back that was stolen from us. Greggory had a great time maning the water cannons and got soaked in the process. We walked the Boardwalk, went to the Musuems, and even figured out how to make Laughing Sal laugh. We spent the mornings on the balcony watching the dolphins in the water, and watching Mr. Duck taken his morning bath in the nearby hotel pool. Oh who can forget about the idiots who can't read the do not park here from 6 am to 9 am sign and got there cars towed. Goodbye Panama Jack and MR Duck Guy until next year.
