Proud

I am really proud of the boys. They have been going to some of their friends houses on the weekends and here are a couple of the messages I received from the parents.

Pizza oven.

Garret has been asking for a wood burning pizza oven for a while and he finally got one for his bday (thanks Aunt Ky and Uncle Bob!).

He has been making all kinds of yummy stuff and now that it has finally stopped raining – maybe he will make me another pizza!!

I found this adorable baby Robin back in the spring. He stayed there for quite a while and stared at me while I planted flowers.

We are BACK!

After months of someone hacking our blog, Tony managed to finally get it back. 🙂

Here is a photo dump of the boys time with PG and Patti. They spent a week working with him, fishing, crabbing, swimming, beaching, flying in a plane and then headed to camp for a 2nd week. I am really grateful for family and everything they do with the boys. Family is special and I am glad they are making memories with them.

14!

Boys had their yearly checkup a couple of weeks ago.   They are now taller then me and will be as tall as Tony by the end of the year!

Broc – 112.9 lbs and 5’5″ (last year 99.2 lbs and  5′ 3″)

Garret – 105.7 lbs and 5’5″ (last year 99.6 lbs and 5′ 3″)

 

Florida

I spent a few days with my brother in FL last month.  Was able to fly out of Hagerstown into Clearwater and then drove a couple of hours to Ft Myers.  PG stays in FL for about 6 weeks every year and he had Patti, Michelle and myself down at different times.  It was SO much FUN!  We played cornhole, horseshoes, checked out the Manatees, local Moose Lodge and there was so much more to do, but just not enough time and it rained…A LOT (tons of flooding)!.  I met the nicest people and am looking forward to next year.

Braces

2 years and 14K dollars later.  The boys finally were freed from their braces.  Happy days.
