A visit from Gaga and Grampa and Hiking at Kittatinny

After a fun weekend with Gaga and Grampa and some late February and early March birthday celebrating we took advantage of a beautiful Sunday afternoon and went hiking with friends at Kittatinny State Park.

Andrew has been playing all kinds of board games lately and challenged Grampa to a game of checkers... I think he was a little disappointed that just like Mom and Dad.. Grampa makes you earn the win ;-)

Quiet moments with Dylan are rare but you can usually get him to color for a while.

Then we hit the trails for some hiking with Mark and Jayda.

Tough night for the Friars

Last night we took the boys to their first college basketball game.. The Providence Friars were in NJ to play the Seton Hall Pirates. Unfortunately it was and up and down night for Providence and despite a great 4th quarter come back the end result was a tough loss to the Pirates for the second time this year.

Despite the loss it was a fun night.

February at the zoo

There isn't a better place to spend a 55 degree February day than at the zoo!  Then after a day of hanging out with the animals we headed through the city and checked out some of the sights and then had pizza in the village before heading home to NJ.  A perfect way to enjoy a Saturday.

Kindergarten Valentine's Day party

Today I used my lunch break to volunteer at Andrew's school Valentine's day party. I got to help all of his friends hand out their Valentines and spend some time with him at school.  Great excuse to cut out of work for a little bit!

That is a LOT of Valentines!

Pretty certain that mouth is full of pink cupcake

Valentine's Day Celebrations

Since Valentine's Day is over the weekend the boys are celebrating with their friends at school today.  Valentine cards are packed and ready to go, party snacks have been delivered and red shirts are on!  They are ready to go.  Here are a couple of pictures of my two crazy Valentine's before they headed out this morning.
