Busy Weekend!

On Friday, my mom, dad and I took Jorja and Travis to Dutch Wonderland! It was a ton of fun and I can't wait to take them again!


And then on Saturday, was Dan's graduation party at his mom and Jeff's.


Oh, and Dan got a new car!! It's a 2007 Ford Fusion SE. It's awesome, we love it! I haven't taken of pictures of him with it, yet, but it's black with tan leather interior. It's so nice to have 2 cars!

Wildlife in Drexel Hill

Lately, Dan and I have noticed some pretty cool (or weird) wildlife in our front yard.

Here's a little froggy

And here's the little froggy jumping away.

A little celebrity action... Mr. Slowsky.


There are also opossums, skunks, and raccoons. I'm not adventurous enough to take pictures of those things though. I usually just run away.

Long overdue...

I've been procrastinating writing this because I haven't been sure what to say or how to say it.

On May 20, 2009, we said goodbye to the strongest woman I have or will ever know. My Mom-mom fought a ton of battles throughout her life, but the hardest by far was her life after her stroke. On Easter Sunday of 2008, just about 2 weeks after moving into an assisted living facility, Mom-mom suffered a stroke. Until that point, she had lived by herself in South Philly. The stroke forced her movement into Little Flower Manor in Upper Darby, where she lived for over a year. (Some of you may recall that Dan and I made a donation there in lieu of wedding gifts) On May 18, 2009, Mom-mom got tired of fighting. I can't blame her... I remember her making fun of "all the little old ladies with walkers and wheelchairs" in the assisted living facility, and for the last year, she was wheelchair bound herself, and could not even communicate with her family. Her family that meant so much to her. Here are some photos of her.

In loving memory...
I was wearing her earrings... I love this picture.
