Ethan's 3rd Birthday Pool Party: Aug 16, 2009

Despite the weather, Ethan's pool party was a splash. The kids, and even some adults, were able to swim for about 40 minutes before the torrential down pour. Everyone ran inside for cover, food and games. Ethan had a great time as did we. Until next year......

Ethan's 3rd Birthday: Aug 10, 2009

My little man, Ethan, turned 3 today. We had a nice day spent celebrating in phases.First we had the morning serenade. Then we had "Celebration of Life" at his school. Ethan then got to choose where we went to dinner, and of course, he chose "the sushi fire place". Why my kids choose sushi over the traditional McDonald's I don't know but I am glad!


After dinner we came home, had some cake, opened and played with all the family presents. It was a fun day and my Little E felt the center of the universe :)


Now we have a week before his pool party, the final phase, with all his little friends.

Below are some videos from the day.

Luci - 8/9/2002-8/9/2009

Last night we lost our little min pin Lucilla (Luci). She was the sweetest little dog ever. After almost 2 months with congestive heart failure, she passed in our arms, late at night knowing she was loved. Rest in peace little Luci, we will miss you so much!
