Our soccer medals

Here is Lucas and his teammates with their well-deserved soccer medals at our post-season pizza party! The boys were all so excited to get them!

Post soccer season pizza party

After a long fall season of "Candy Cane" soccer league with the "Red Hot Chili Peppers", the boys celebrated by having a pizza party and getting soccer medals! Had a lot of fun!

Camping - Labor Day 2009

Pete, me and the kids spent a good part of the evening putting up this massive tent. It has literally four rooms. The kids couldn't wait to sleep in it tonight. They have all of their pillows, blankets, stuffed animals, slippers, robes, etc., and are now telling vampire and werewolf stories.... it is a full moon, you know. Pete has elected to sleep out there with them as I cannot because of my asthma. Thanks for "taking one for the team", Petie.
Lucas wanted to make sure I got a picture of the hot dog.... yipee. He and Katrina roasted about a dozen marshmallows this evening as well as last night, also. Doesn't Pete look thrilled? We did have a great time with the kids, though. Perfect weather for camping outside. We'll see if they last all night.

Family Vacation 2009

Here's our first day of vacation - only an hour or so in the car so far... They liked each other then.

Pix of the Kiddies

Lucas's last day at preschool for the year. They went to the park and had fun, packed lunches, playing with the other kids, games, etc.

Pete's 40th Birthday! Here's his cake.

The kids pretending to sleep on the chaise lounger outside on the patio. Awww... aren't they sweet!?
