JCPenny Photo Shoot

Our time spent at JCPenny--- great idea Sara!

Talcott Mountain Concert-- Billy Joel!!!

What a wonderful way to enjoy a Wednesday evening besides with a great group of people and some great music!!! The Brinks, Valentine's and Jean and Tom know how to party!!
We had great seats, right in front, staked out by the Brinks early--it is amazing at how people try to scootch in on great seats! We had someone sitting in front of us before the night was over...
There was cheese, chips, crackers, olives, veggie plates, beer, wine, pizza, burgers, a shmorgaborde of food! What a great time!
Dad was in heaven and loved rocking little Riley to the beat of the music...someone's gonna have rhythm!! Thanks Goomba for keeping me warm!

We even had a visitor-- Great to see Mary and her family!

Next Riley was off to Mrs. B--
And then Jean! It was great to have so many arms open and ready to hold a little munchkin!!

What a view!

It was really a great time, Thanks Dad for bringing me along!

Thank goodness I was the one to drive home...these two love wine!!! (And I love to grab the camera once they've had just enough...)

Here is a feel for the atmosphere...the best! We will be sure to make more trips down next year to catch the concerts!

Kid's Day Weekend!

Maggie and Perkins both love their new outdoors dog bed!!! Thanks Oma Sue!!

Even with the cone on his head...

How many men does it take to build a plant stand? One..two..three...FOUR!

Ok, you hold this piece like that for 1 hour...I'll nail this piece together..

And we're done!!! It is great and just what I needed!!!

Someone is starting to learn how to smile...it is so cute!!!


She loves looking at Dad...he does some of the funiest things!

Those morning smiles are the best...hopefully she'll take after Mom in the morning...Dad's a grump!

What a fun time!!

July! Wow--Time is flying!

It all started with Jason's first Father's Day...what a cutie!





Riley even had a special outfit for the day...dressing little girls is so much fun!


Dad was luck to have his entire family there for Father's Day... a morning of golf, his daughters and his grandchildren (Nick was taking a siesta...)


And of course quality time with Goomba...that TV zone...


It is time to finally hit the beach! We went to Sharon lake with the Leadbetter clan and Carlson clan--Finally the weather was cooperating!



Nick--What do you think? The sun is out--you are hanging with your cousins, what a day!


Sara was even brave enough to hit the water with her little munchkin!


How does that water feel? Chilly?


The Leadbetter family--What a group!

July 4th--and racked out again...love the arms behind her head, what a comfy position!

Someone has made a new best friend...Maggie wouldn't leave Alexys alone....just waiting for that ice cream to drop...

Jimmy was a trooper--I think he blew up 6 toys for the pool!

Ah...the joys of summer...how warm was that pool boys? Alexys loved it!

Ah...what a day...

And boy do they sleep!!!
