Zoo Trip with Ivy and Sage

Last Sunday we went to the Zoo with Ivy, Sage and their parents.  It was such a beautiful day. 

So tough trying to get all the kids to look at the camera at the same time! 

The girls on the alligator... with Ivy and her daddy just behind.

Sabrina is mellow in her old age.  I caught her napping with Elli the other day. 

Elli was sent home from school on this day... not so sick.

Annual Christmas Light Show

Last Friday I took the girls to see the light show at Macy's.  Last year Elli slept through the performance.  She was awake this year!

On the way to the light show we ran into our friends Kathryn and her mom Melissa.

After the light show we had lunch downtown.



Happy Thanksgiving

This year we spent Thanksgiving with the Martins.  We all went to see the Philadelphia Thanksgiving Day parade.    

Happy Halloween

So, we tried a new, time saving way to decorate pumpkins this year.

Elli was a cupcake and Viv was Spidergirl.

My little cupcake. She had a great time trick or treating.

Scarecrows and cookies

After apple picking we went to see the Scarecrows. We really liked this one.

Yummy cookies topped off the day.

Apple Picking Part II

Saturday we went Apple Picking with friends. We were supposed to go to the orchard we went to last year but they were out of apples! So, we met our friends at Solebury Orchards in Solebury, Bucks County.

Elli and Charlie.


Checking out the apples.

This one looks good.

We had fun.

Apple Princess...

Apple actor...

Who is this apple girl?

Not the little girl who normally refuses to have her photo taken.

Going for the perfect apples.

Pumpkin Picking 2011

Last weekend we went on our annual trip to pick pumpkins.

Viv found a great one.

Elli found a few as well.

All smiles.

Viv decided she needed one more pumpkin.

Cider donuts anyone?

Happy Anniversary!

According to the traditional anniversary list, this is the year of confectionery gifts. Jeff doesn't love sweets but hopefully he'll like this photo of a beautiful confection from our wedding day. Love you!
