The Boys' Week

1/12/08

Today is Uncle Garrett's 24th Birthday! Happy Birthday!

We are posting pictures from our visit with Bernadette and Mark at Christmas, as well as Tony's picture with Chris Rizzo at his Wedding in D.C. this last weekend! I have to rely on Jenn and Karl's site for Christmas pictures with them, as our camera was still not found unpacking until we got to Bernadette's! See her link!

Connor: He had fun learning about the Three Kings visit at preschool. He fell in love with the apple corer from Pampered Chef. He ate 5 apples that when stretched out after this process look like slinky toys! He is currently wearing his Spiderman Halloween costume and playing Pirates with the CD blasting!

Colin: Prepping for his NYS exams and midterms next week. With three ELA exams in this house next week, yoy can imagine the joy here. He is working on merit badges and studying hard! He got to practice at the U of R this week with the Varsity Indoor Track team and had so much fun at his dad's alma mater. Those indoor track corners were ticky, nearly hitting the wall on the turns! Good thing I wasn't there. Just found out that he will be in the next edition of the national scouting magazine: Boy's Life!

Tony: Rough week. Lost one of his students this week and it really hit him hard. We're just thanking God for our own kids and the joy they bring right now. He really had fun at Chris's wedding!

Eileen: Just finished the scout newsletter for the next three months if you want to check out what we will be doing! Found out Lynee and the girls will be coming from Maine for winter break and am just so excited! We got together with Colleen, Todd, Bailey and Kaitlin doing our annual Three Kings present exchange! They are all getting so big! We also had a fun New Year's with our old neighbors, The Lozipones, and a dinner with the Gerhardts! Don't even want to talk about the 60 hours of work this week...

Tomorrow afternoon we are going to see Veggietales: The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything with Connor and National Treasure 2 with Colin! Hope everyone has a wonderful week. Hug your kids!
