2011 School Pictures

Jude's class picture - the poor girls.

Blake's handsome school picture

I didn't buy Jude's individual picture because I didn't think he would smile or even do it... luckily, he made this cute wreath (Paige and Blake never got to make these things since we lived in Denmark) and I can show off how cute it turned out.

Wondering where Paige's picture is? Well, let's just say she was in typical Paige form - complaining about her hair, clothes, etc.. so I threatened to not buy her school pictures if she did not stop crying and get dressed. You know what happened :)

This really explains me!

Jude's 1st Christmas Show

I also should tell that he was a stinker during every practice (so I was told by the teachers). He laid on the ground and covered his eyes. Ahhh. So, I did what I swore I would never do.. but he is the third. I bribed him with candy. And, what did the little stinker do? Walked off the stage, stuck his hand out, and said Can I have my candy now?

My Artist

12 kids from the entire school (grades 1-5) were chosen to display their artwork at a well known college in Philly. Paige was chosen and we are so proud of her. She LOVES art and takes it very seriously.

I love it!!

SO SO proud of you Paige!

Miss Paige turns 8!

Photo before school but presents after school :)

The Yummiest Ice Cream cake from the East Coasters store, Brusters

We had Paige's party at YSC. She had an ADT (Athletic Development Training) Party for 12 of her friends. We had shirts made and split the teams up. It was a lot of fun because for most everyone it was there first time doing this kind of activity. Definitely something we will do again.

The girls won at ADT Pictionary.

Tired and full from pizza and cake :)

The night of her birthday we went to a Brazilian Steakhouse in the city. Don't mind the 2 year old.. I know what you're thinking cause I'm thinking the same thing.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my only daughter. I love you Paige so much!!!

Another article to share :)

Halloween 2011

This costume suits Blake perfectly. He likes to make people smile/laugh and it did just that!

Paige as the very pretty witch!

And Jude was Spiderman... along with every other kid. But, it was the prefect costume for him (and me cause it was 7 bucks!)

Flyers and Union

The Union has a goal celebration song which features the word DOOP. The hockey team in Philly, the Flyers, have taken to it now too. Blake and Danny went to a game recently where the score was 9-8! (not us though). He was so excited that he got to sing the DOOP song 8 times! Not to mention he got a custom jersey handed to him by JVR, got to wear a Stanley Cup ring, and sat in a very nice suite for the evening. He is one lucky boy!

My friend, Peanut

My friend, Peanut (real name is Alicia but I just cannot call her that) makes these super cute necklaces. I LOVE mine. She is a stay at home mom of 3 kids, like me, trying to make some extra money and occupy her time instead of emptying the dishwasher, folding laundry, and running errands. It's always nice to put on some good music and get lost in something you enjoy doing. If interested, please contact her @

What's thirty-one??

Thirty-one is the most amazing company in which I am a consultant for. I was introduced to it over a year ago and then finally, 2 months ago, I decided to sign up to sell their products. I couldn't be happier. I really LOVE, LOVE the products. Did I say LOVE? It is a perfect fit for me - organization, affordability, and getting to talk to people!!

The holidays are coming up (seriously, where did this year go??) and I wanted to post about thirty-one because I think the gift ideas are endless. Plus, there are several things you could probably use too! And, 90% of the items can be personalized.

My favorites are:
-Large Utility Tote - sports gear, beach towels, toy bin, etc..
-Littles Carry-All Caddy - I keep my face wash stuff in it. Hair accessories, nail polishes, etc..
-Organizing Utility Tote - I take this when we travel. Fits perfectly under the seat. I also gave it as a gift as a diaper bag.
-Thermal Tote - GREAT teachers gift.
-Cosmetic Bag - great gift for mom or grandma. I LOVE mine - holds so much stuff!
-Zipper Pouch - I have 6 and I use them for everything - Jude's lego toys, snack bag for the kids, itouch/DS holder, panties/bras when traveling, Danny uses the mens one for his vitamins/medicines. Endless uses!
-Retro Metro Bag - LOVE LOVE it. It holds so much, can be washed, and has a great key hook which I'm obsessed with. Hate when I can't find my keys.

Please let me know if you are interested in ordering. Really, everything is great!! Thanks!!!

Boston Trip

We visited the Patton family, our friends from Denmark last summer too. I drove the 6 hours by myself. (left at 4:30am, made 1 potty stop and to grab a quick bite at Dunkin Donuts) The kids were amazing! This is Alex and Paige showing off their BFF necklaces. They are only 1 year apart but Alex is SO tall for her age.

This stadium is HUGE! It was a good win for the Union. 3-0!

We know the goalkeeper for New England so we arranged for the kids to get on the field and surprise the team before the game. Danny was VERY surprised. :)

Nicole is just wonderful and boy does she have her hands full. Jacob is 5 and she has identical twin boys, age 2! They are so busy, run in opposite directions, and never sit still. I was tired after 1 day with them. Great, great time with the Reis Family :)

Jude's best friend, Kona :)

PHL vs DC

We drove down for the game against DC to meet up with our friends from San Jose. We got to see them last year when we visited Houston too. Their dad is now the assistant coach of DC United. We tied 2-2.

Peyton (9), Paige (7.5), Owen (6), Blake (6), Abby (5), and Jude (2.5)

Happy 4th of July!

LOVE LOVE this guy!

We had to do American food since it was nicely pointed out that we had no American beer at our party. Oops!

Gotta play the favorite American sport on the 4th!

LOVED doing the sparklers but HATED the fireworks.

My 3 munchkins... I love you PBJ!

Our awesome backyard in full effect. I am so proud to be back in this amazing country and am so so proud to be an American. I also thank the men and women for serving our country to help keep us safe and free!

Blake Turns 6!

He wanted to dye his hair like his Daddy so I gave in. He looks cute and it's already growing out so it's all good.

Presents! I love surprising my kids. He was very wishy washy this bday and didn't give any ideas.

We took 10 boys (and Paige and a friend) to see CARS 2. They all did great and I only had to take them to the bathroom 6x!
Jude's first movie.... he lasted about 30 mins.

Next stop, McDonald's. I honestly think the last time I was inside a McDonald's was when I was in Prague, over 2 years ago! No joke.

The yummiest ice cream cake ever, from Brusters!

I love this kid more than he will ever know. He melts my heart by how caring and sensitive he is. He is going to make a great husband some day. (although he says he is NEVER getting married. He wants to live with me FOREVER! Ask him if you don't believe me)

**I also want to thank everyone so much for the cards, emails, texts, and great gifts for this guy. He sure is loved! So, THANK YOU!

2011 Shore Fun!
