Merry Christmas 2012

Vincent after his first Christmas mass

This is going to be a big photo dump, so everyone will feel like they, too, spent Christmas morning in our living room :).

Aunt Cups and Agnes catching up on Q.T.

Frankie, too excited to go to bed

Merry Christmas!

 And that's all, folks.  Merry Christmas from us to you!

Girl Time

After much complaining from Agnes about how she has no friends, we were able to play with friends all day yesterday. Agnes was back to her sad self right after they left, but it was a blur of cuteness and giggles while it lasted! Vin was great and rolled with all the drama associated with prima Dona toddlers like a pro. There were quite a few wardrobe changes.

Halloween!

Off to a great start

The little lion stayed warm and cozy and slept through most the evening.

Tinker bell's night began and ended in tears.

Scooby and Optimus Prime

Now I've come to the realization that we have far TOO MUCH candy in the house.  Thank goodness the next Halloween is a whole year away!

Vincent, recently

Avalon Kindergarten

He is headed to school today with just his dad, because his brother is sick with a stomach bug he caught from his sister. I know he's having more fun at school than we're having at home...

Matter of fact

1. We now have a boy in serious priestly training in our casa.

2. This is the way you are supposed to wear a headband.

Lake Anna

Thank you, Stanmeyers!! We had an awesome time this weekend at the lake!

Avalon!

Peter didn't want to miss hanging out in the morning before they left.

It will be both of them leaving together next year!

Who would have thought 7 years would go by so fast?!

Peter is so excited for Frankie.

The day has finally come when I pass the torch to Matt regarding Frankie's schooling.  Today is his first day at Avalon as a second grader!  It is surreal to think that this is the beginning of the rest of his academic career while he is at home. 

Nationals vs. Cubs Game

We had awesome seats by home plate!

Vincent approved of our location and did great, even though it was ridiculously hot and humid out.

Katie Ledecky threw the opening pitch and sat in our section.

Agnes got up close to the big bird/mascot?

Agnes with Katie Ledecky

We had a blast.  It was such an experience to be so close to the game!

She was very sweet to take so many pix with us.

Matt took some great action shots.

On our way out.

THANK YOU, Aunt Cups!!  The game was one for the memory books.  For true.

Kindergarten Take Two

Peter and Mrs. Flora ready to take on Kindergarten!

All dressed and getting breakfast

Excited to walk Peter to school on his 1st day!

And just like that, Peter is off starting his school career.....
