Happy Birthday, Pieta!

Mike, Jack and I had an absolute blast with Birdie, Jake, Nana and Pieta this afternoon. We saw "Puss in Boots" and for his first trip to a theater, Jack did amazingly well! He slept, ate and enjoyed as much of the movie as he could :) 


Afterwards, we indulged in some delicious homemade cake and ice cream with the rest of the family back at the Bird's Nest. What a wonderful way to celebrate Pieta's rambunctious third year of life!! We love you, Pieta! 

6 Months!

Happy 55th Birthday, Dad!

Last night was an absolute blast. Good work, mom! 

Dad was completely surprised by all the friends and family members that came out to Cafe Latte to surprise him on his birthday. And he loved his "55" gifts - 55 prunes, 55 suckers, a list of the top 55 movies from 1956-2011 along with the 55 accompanying candies, 55 straws, 55 kisses from Jack...such creative ideas!

Thanks for making the night so special, everyone and so great seeing you all  :)

If only Ben, Luke and Lily could have been there - then the evening would have truly been complete...

Looking forward to having the (almost) whole family together in a little more than 2 weeks and then the whole fam together in just under a month!
