End of Summer

Daddy gets home from work, daddy takes kids outside!

What are we going to do as the weather continues to get colder???????

Xavier and Gisele love popsicles! Oh yes, my 1 year old gets popsicles. Her brother gets one...........

Xavier's favorite popsicles are the Bomb Pops, or red, white and blue ones :)

Look mom, I can stand on my left foot!

And now for this cool trick, my right foot!!

Xavier is currently taking gymnastics and seems to like it! He enjoys standing on each foot to see if he can do it. I walk into the living room and find him doing head stands on the couch.

I think gymnastics will be good for him!

Xavier's 1st day of Pre-School

My sweet boy starting pre-school!

When he actually smiles and looks at the camera.....watch out ladies! :)

Monkey see-Monkey Do.

Xavier sat down so Gisele was sitting down too for a pic!

Mom and Dad's 40th Anniversary

An anniversary rock! My sister and I outlined the kids hands and painted them. Ashley wrote a poem in about 2 minutes that says: These hands form branches of our family tree, with roots strong & love flowing free.

She is so freakin creative!

Carson Ro-Bear. This "little" guy just turned 1! I say "little" because well he is bigger than my little princess Gisele!

The whole Fam! Drew came home for a couple of days as well as Josh so we decided to have a little "get together" to celebrate the beautiful 40 years my mom and dad have been together!

The cake! Should have found my dad for a pic but I am sure he was outside with the big boys or the little boys!

Grandmother, Chloe and Gisele

Chloe and Gisele

Hopefully Friends Forever!!!

All the kids have loved sitting and playing in these little adirondack chairs at my parents

Uncle Drew kind of scared Chlo-Bug most of the time. Not this time! He begged for a kiss and finally received one!

Caden with Uncle Drew's shoes and Chloe with Dar-Dar's shoes!

I think I could make quite the collage of Caden wearing people's shoes.

Ash and Drew

Happy 40th Anniversary Mom and Dad! It was nice that we could ALL be home with you to celebrate!

The 50th celebration will be bigger and better! :)

Chuck-E-Cheese

Uncle Josh helping X shoot something!

Skee-ball tournament. I can't remember who won....I know it wasn't me though!

(Profile pics are not my best side, yikes!)

GG playing some bowling game

Uncle Drew and superspin

Not sure what game.....

Beep beep!

The Big boys playing!

Xavier had a BLAST at Chuck-e-Cheese. He asks to go back just about every week! In fact he just now saw me adding these and said, "can we take G to Grandi's and go back to  chuck-e-cheese with Uncle Drew and Uncle Josh sometime?"

It was also nice because it was a Friday late morning and we were like the only ones in the place!

Xavier says, Thanks Uncle Drew and Josh!!!
