Gianna was watching the new movie "Spooky Buddies". She loves these movies. It's about a bunch of cute puppies and their different adventures. So she was watching it on her portable DVD player and had her little dogs lined up watching it with her. I thought it was so cute that I took this picture....
Well, she wasn't so happy about that. She's getting to the age that she's starting to get a little embarrassed about that kind of stuff. I promised her I would delete the picture. Well, sometimes Mom's have to go back on some promises. I just couldn't erase that kind of memory!
The other night I saw this...
They were watching Sponge Bob together...thus all the BIG smiles!
Today was a gloriously warm mid-October day. I can't believe how beautiful the weather has been! So we decided to head to Newport for the day. We went out for a yummy lunch and then on a harbor cruise. I'm not sure though how much the kids liked it. Julia felt a little queasy although it was really calm. You know how it goes with kids..."I'm hot!"...."I'm thirsty!"...."Is this almost over?". Ugh. Sometimes you leave the house with such high expectations of having a fun day together and then the reality is, it just doesn't always end up that way. We had a little man who decided to get a little fresh at the end of our trip and it really put a damper on the day. That little man didn't get an ice cream with the rest of us. (I will not reward bad behavior). And that same little man is now grounded for a while too. It bothers me to the core but hopefully it will pay off in the long run. Let's hope so anyway.
Like I said, it was a GLORIOUS day!
And funny how we sailed right past our house....
A girl can dream, can't she?
See our little man in action....

You have some of the most beautiful children I have ever seen.
Thank you Sarah! : )
Good job Nicholas! You know what I call, 'mowing the lawn'? I call it 'payback' to Mom and Dad for all the things they do for you! It's really a BIG DEAL, and I'm proud of you! Keep up the good work!
Love you,
Nana
Julia and Gianna.... I loved the pictures of the 2 of you on the boat! It reminded me so much of when I was a kid. My Dad always had a boat of some kind and would take my friends and me out into the deep ocean to fish. Sometimes we couldn't even see land... just water, water and more water!! Once in a while, when the waves were really big, I would get a bit queasy. (That is a bit seasick... yuck!) But... always had a blast!
Always great memories!
Love,
Nana
If you really want that house on the ocean, I'll sell this one... you sell yours... and we can afford it! (Maybe).
Of course you will have to put up with me living with you. I promise to always make breakfast every morning for the family. You can have your choice of cold cereals! Oh yes, and for the coffee lovers I make a great Maxwell Instant Coffee!
Let me know~~~
Mom
(Oh yes, Kerry and Dena will come too.. and Dena is a great cook!)
Wouldn't that be so fun living in that huge house by the water? Would love to live with you Mom!! : )
