Lauren's 6th Birthday and the 4th of July

Lauren turned the BIG 6 this year. We had Hello Kitty cupcakes and celebrated with fireworks once again!Our good friend Hope was able to join us for the celebration and we all got on our suits to cool off in the neighbor's pool!



Yes, I am 6 and I am silly!


Ready???? 1......2......3....


My mom takes my picture in this same dress every year on my birthday. You'll have to wait to see how I've grown over the years!

Matthew

Matthew participated in a school play this year called, Honk Jr. He was the Farmer and did a great job. He sang, danced and hopes to get another role next year.

Matthew also played spring baseball for the first time. He was placed on the NY Yankees team and had a really great season. He likes to play third and second base and hopes to play fall ball as well.

My teacher, Mrs. Beech.

We are so proud of you - good work!

Easter 2010


Easter was a lot of fun this year... we colored eggs with our cousins and got to be as creative as we wanted to be.

The Easter Bunny is sure to hide these eggs and maybe even leave a littel something for all of us!

Matthew found all of his eggs... treats, toys and even some $$$!
Lauren was happy she didn't lose her favorite pink, sparkly egg.

Ahhh, I found more!!!

Spring Break 2010 - Santa Monica Pier, CA

For Spring Break this year, we headed to the beach (our favorite place). This year we went to Santa Monica Pier to take in the sights and great views.
What a beautiful day to stroll the boardwalk!

Lauren and Jenn rode the ferris wheel and could see everything along the beach and pier... spectacular!

Larry took us to a local park that he used to frequent when he was a kid. The rocket ship has been there for over 50 years... see the kids at the top?
