Weekend at the Cape

We spent the weekend at the Cape. A special thanks to Tim and Julie for their hospitality. I owe Mary a special spa treat at some point to thank her for her patience. I got to play golf, drink a beer or two and catch up with the boys pretty much guilt free. Isabelle fit right in with the boys and it was awesome to see her beat Mikey in arm wrestling, punch Dave in the nose, smile at Marc and Jay, chill with Bry at the beach, clean the floors for Tim and scoot for Kev.

Olivia, Julie, Mary and Isabelle went shopping and had some "girl time" as well. It was a fabulous weekend spent with our great friends.

Weekend of fun in the sun - sort of :-)

We had a great weekend. Mary and I went to the Sox game on Friday night. The Sox were playing the Cardinals and were honoring the Celtics. The rains came just as Lucky started waving the Celtics flag from the class duck-boat! Paul Pierce slide safely into second base and threw a "strike" to Varitek - well sort of! The Sox lost but Mary and I still enjoyed "date night".

Spent the rest of the weekend at the beach - well not literally but "a day at the beach is time well spent". The waves were large and the water was frigid! Isabelle loved the sand and got plenty in her diaper and mouth :-) She laughed at her crazy cousins as they dug to China and then got buried!

A happy belated Father's Day to Papa!! We all love ya! A special thanks to Nana and Papa for their wonderful Isabelle sitting skills allowing us to enjoy "date night"!! In addition, Happy Birthday to Peggy!!!

Father's Day

This weekend was Father's Day Weekend. Notice the use of the Weekend term :-) I used this time to do some items like mow the lawn, work on the Jeep, go to the "dump" and clean the house among other things. We spent Sunday at Grammy and Granpy's house hanging out and had a nice dinner. If I can be half the dad that my Dad is to me then Isabelle is a lucky girl. I am lucky enough to have a wonderful family, a great wife and a spectacular daughter that enables me to now "officially" celebrate Father's Day :-)

It's hot.......

The summer is starting to sizzle!! As a result, it was time to give Isabelle an "up do". Isabelle got a new summer hair style and seems to really love it. Our little "cave girl" became "pebbles like" over night as she tries to stay "cool". Isabelle also spent time in her kiddie pool - we learned she doesn't like to be splashed :-) and she made her first "official" trip to the beach. The water was really cold but Isabelle played with the sand and watched her cousins get into lots of trouble :-). We got to catch up with Danielle, Christina and Pete while relaxing at our little piece of heaven. The weekend also brought a time to celebrate Grammy's birthday (yes it was a big one). Happy Birthday to Grammy and we all love you! Enjoy the week and "stay cool!"
