JUNE....

Happy Birthday, Miguel!!!

Miguel is 3!!! Yes, I'm a little behind, but on June 22nd, we celebrated my baby boys third birthday. What a sweet and loving little guy we have been blessed with. Here are a few things we love about our Bubba: sweet, big time cuddle bug, passion for life and everything around him, family comedian, loves to dance and sing (usually his own creation ), makes up great stories and many, many more. He is a blast to be around!!!

Miguel is really into Transformers right now. So , we tried to go all out; we had transformer cups, plates, napkins, hats, banners and of course toys! He got tons of transformer toys, which of course take hours and hours to transform. : } Here are some pics from the day.

Happy Birthday, Emma!!!

On May 31, my little princess, turned 6! I still can't believe it. Where did all the years go? She is still the most precious little girl in the world. She still has the same tiny little voice and the most sweet spirit and to top it off she is adorable!! What more can you ask for?

As most of you know, Emma is a animal lover. Since the age of 3 she has wanted to be a vetaranarian. She has not waivered, well, she did for about an hour one day when she decided she just wanted to be a vet assistant because she didn't want to do the surgeries on animals. But like I said it only lasted about an hour. She came back and decided that was where she could help them the most. :D

So, keeping with her love of animals we had an animal party. Since we had just moved back and were lacking in the friends department. I decided to take Emma to an Animal Safari about an hour and a half away with her brothers, grandparents, a couple Uncles and of course Mommy and Daddy. :) She loved it!! We were able to feed animals and then there is a drive-thru part as well. It was a lot of fun.

Then the next day we had a swim party at my Mom's with the rest of my family. My sister, Janie ( who is training to be a pastry chef) and I made animal cupcakes, they decorated animal balloons and we ate ice cream and opened presents!(in the picture below are monster puppets that Miguel wanted to make her) It was a great day!!

Not so private

When I told my husband I was making our blog private he wasn't too excited about the idea. We have quite a bit of family (mostly grandparents) that read our blog rather frequently and they do not have accounts with the blogging community. So, thank you for all those who asked to be invited but we will be staying public. : / At least, I know now that I have many people who read and enjoy our blog. :D Thanks, guys!! I will try and stay as updated as possible :D

Yep, he's mine...

One of Ces' favorite dessert places in Boston was in the North End, Mike's Pastry(he loved their cannoli's). On our last night there he went with his family and brought me back my favorite, their chocolate mousse cake! So yummy!! They knew how to combine three different chocoaltes and make it taste just perfect. Not too rich, but just perfect. I made the mistake of leaving the box along with Gabe on the floor while I went to the bathroom. This is what I came back to.

WE DID IT!!!

Ces graduated from Law School!! No more school!! After seven years of schooling we are finally done. I cannot express my excitement for this!!! :D

Ces' parents and two brothers came to share in the big event. My Mom watched Emma and Miguel while Ces, Gabe and myself flew back to Boston for it. It was a fun time. Here are some pics of the festivities.

It's been a crazy few months...

So, I'm really behind like always. It's been really busy accompanied by a broken computer, meant no blogging for me. But before I start catching up I think it is time for our blog to go private. So, if you want to be able to see our family blog please comment and leave your email address so I can invite you. :D

Thanks!!
