HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSEPH!!!!

Joseph had a wonderful fourth birthday celebration with friends and family!

Many of his "best friends" (Drew, Ginsey & Sabrina) came over to play, celebrate and have cake!

Thank you to everyone (near and far) for sharing in our celebration!

I love you Joseph - my sweet angel boy!

My birthday wish for you..."may you celebrate each day as a gift".

Here's lookin' at you...

Mia has a new best friend...

I think they see eye-to-eye about ALOT because she goes on and on jabbering away to her.

I love you Mia!

You are a beautiful, funny girl:)

We get around...

What a nice visit with Grandma Mary and Grandpa Carl. Such sweet amazing people. Mia and Joseph had all of our heads spinning. He flying his helicopter and her crawling around to check things out. Thank you for the wonderful dinner and visit. We love you both.And look who's getting ready to walk...won't be long before I'm chasing two around the house.

Highlights.....

Our Christmas vacation was wonderful.....and all about spending time with family!

We began with a white Christmas which Joseph and I, Jess and Becca couldn't resist playing in and making snow angels.

After Christmas we spent a day in New York City. We went to ToysRUs, took a subway to Rockefeller Center, shared a hot dog (just had to try one from an NYC street vendor:) walked around Time Square, did some window shopping and visited Saint Patrick's Cathedral.

New Year's Eve brought more snow and Joseph helped create his first snowman. Our traditional New Year's celebration at Mare and Richie's was the perfect wrap-up to our visit in New Jersey.
