Enjoying the Nice Weather While it Lasts!

Well, before you know it there won't be any nice days left, so we've been taking advantage of the nice weather & have really enjoyed some nice day trips...

This pic cracks me up!






Some really nice grounds near my sister's house, look at all the lovely light we had :) & what a sweet moment between John & Maddie. How grown up she looks here, where has the time gone!?



My cutest nephew ever!!! A trip to the waterfront with beautiful NY city as a backdrop...what a lovely night it was, the weather was perfect & the kiddies had the most fabulous time simply running around & doing what kids do best!













Our Christmas card :D







& last but not least some more candids of my sillies!

Trick or Treat!

What a Halloween we had...lots of costumes, fun, candy, family, and yes, even some slush! This was a first, snow on the ground...but that didn't stop the kiddies from enjoying their day of trick or treating :D & can I just say how grown up everyone seems to be now?! Going from house to house like they're pros now!



In case you were wondering, yes, she's a good witch ;)



Mr. Scorpion...if anyone is familiar with the video game Mortal Kombat anyway...we had to tell Jason that, you're a *ninja*, because otherwise people would think, "what your a scorpion?" lol.







My sweet nephew...is he just darling?!?



A little Ewok :)

Cheers!

Well, it was our 14th wedding anniversary on the 11th, as was my Mom's birthday! So to my surprise John planned a mini adventure for the three of us; to take a day trip to Atlantic City!! Not that many pictures I'm afraid But tons of FUN :D  My mom has lived in Jersey for just about her whole life and have never ventured to the casinos before, so to put it mildly she had a blast!

After several hours playing the penny & nickle slots...my mom had a bit of luck with some of the table games...then we were off to dinner. We ate at Ruth's Chris Steak House. & oh my was it delicious. It was one of those dinners that started with 5 pm reservations & we stayed at the restaurant till about 7:30... cake & coffee & champagne, the whole 9 yards! It was all in all one fabulous day...
