We got the kids a nice amount of presents for Christmas this year. In fact I’m perfectly pleased with the amount. Jake got a train table and 10 other gifts, Juliet got a play kitchen (which I think Jake might actually like more ) and 10 other gifts. We were able to find some great [...]

We watched Hazelton’s fireworks on the 3rd. Jake loved them like always and Juliet liked them too (although she was pretty tired by that point).  Then on the 4th, Jake went to a party with his dad during the day and then we had fireworks at home for him. He really got a kick out of [...]

  Jake’s birthday landed on Memorial Day this year, so we decided to take him to Hershey Park for his birthday.  There were hardly any lines for the rides and Jake went roller coaster CRAZY!  He did 20 coaster rides!  Juliet only went on the Monorail and the Kissing Tower. She really loved the tower [...]

Another big post today! Jake told me that on December 1st he wanted to make cupcakes. So I was prepared when he pounced on me first thing this morning asking to make them! We got them done before I even got to have my morning coffee. He was a lot of help too! First, you [...]

Although the kids dressed up more cuddly than creepy, we had a great time on Halloween. We visited family and friends then Juliet’s godparents watched her while we took Jake trick-or-treating. He got lots of candy and had a great time. Click HERE to see the rest of the Halloween pictures.
