Some professional pictures...

These pictures were taken back in April right after Gemma turned 1. I am just getting around to posting them...

Cabin and Soccer

We went up north for the first time for Memorial weekend. The kids had a wonderful time playing with cousins and exploring the outdoors. They fished a lot off the dock, too. Also, Freddy started soccer, and he in on the Mustangs. I love this last picture of my two boys. Jack is such a good little brother, and cheers him on the whole game. Although, he would much rather be playing on the field.

Celebrating Frederick birthday

Here are some pics of Frederick's birthday party with the Bergs/Kistlers a couple weeks back. The last two pictures were taken on his actual birthday... Adorable!

Frederick is 5!!!!

Happy 5th Birthday to my sweet Frederick Joseph!! He is such a wonderful boy, and brings us so much joy each day. It is hard to believe he is already 5. These are some of my favorite recent pictures of him... We love you Frederick!!

Beautiful Grandma

Our beloved Grandma Betty passed away early this morning. We were all very blessed by her beautiful, full life of 96 years!! I am so grateful to have been able to know my Grandma so well, and have so many wonderful memories with her. Gram we love you so much, and you will be missed!

Weekend in Philly

We had quite the weekend in Philly a couple weeks ago, and I am finally getting around to putting up pictures. The kids and I flew home with Greg in time for Dad's beautiful fighting back award ceremony. It was truly a special night. I don't think there was a dry eye in the place during the slide show for Dad. He gave the most incredible speech, too. I am so grateful that I was able to be there. The next two days were two of the most gorgeous Spring days ever. The yard is so nice for the kids now, that we all just spent the days relaxing outside, enjoying the sun and each other's company. We celebrated John Paul's 5th birthday and Gemma's 1st Friday night with a barbeque and ice cream cake from Friendly's! Saturday, we even made it to Longwood Gardens. It was a very peaceful, lovely weekend, and the kids had the most fun time with their grandparents and cousins. Can't wait to go back in June.
