7 Mile Island

This Thanksgiving weekend took us back to Aunt PJ and Uncle Denny's house in Avalon. We relaxed, ate, shopped, ate some more, shopped and ate some more! It is always wonderful hanging out with family for a long weekend. Getting a head start on Christmas shopping is always a plus too. The Stone Harbor Christmas parade was unseasonably warm this year so we were able to see all the sights and see Santa make his appearance at the end!

Thats Amore

Uncle Rick and Claudia said their "I dos" on a sunny cool November afternoon. The ceremony took place in "the neighborhood" at St. Donato's parish in West Philadelphia. The dancing and dining took place at the beautiful new reception spot on 6th and Broad called Vie. What a fanytastic time. Many wonderful years of happiness Rick and "Zia"!!

Fall Fun

The beautiful color of the changing leaves and pumpkins turning up everywhere have us excited about the changing season. We have been out and about celebrating with friends and family! Some stops have been Duffield's farm, Peddler's Village and Linvilla Orchards.

First Day of School

The first day of school can bring on a case of the jitters for most (including mom) but Michael looked forward to going back to school so he could be reunited with his old friends. Same boy....just a bit taller. Oh and yes, in school year 2011 "MAC " has been dropped. It is now, "Michael". off we go!!!

By The Sea

This summer has brought us to some great stops and the gorgeous weather has allowed us to spend many days "by the sea" with friends and loved ones. Even those who are no longer with us, will live forever with us as we celebrate their great spirit!

"Stamanda"

Congratulations! and what a beautiful wedding it was! Steven and Amanda finally tied the knot. Amanda looked radiant and Steve so handsome as they said their " I dos". The happy couple didn't stop smiling all night and the crowd didn't stop dancing. Everyone took home some of Noninna's homemade limincello to remember the special day.

Bucket List

This Summer we put together a "bucket list" of all the

awesome places we want to visit that are local and kid friendly! Some of our stops have included the Franklin Institute, Lucy the Elephant in Margate and Historic Smithville. We have had some great trips so far!
