Block Party on Pearsall Place

So yesterday we went to Deana’s block party and had a fantastic time. Danny & I remember from our respective childhoods about having block parties and the different attractions that would be there from the whip to swings and pirate ships. Unfortunately, our current block is fairly dull and there has been no block parties… Continue Reading

Guitar Hero II Rocks Our House!

So we hit Toys R Us on Saturday for a little free for all. Actually, the main reason we went was so that Matty could buy yet another bubble lawn mower. He has had several and worn them all out. Nevermind that the bubble lawn mower is for toddlers, Matty had to own one again… Continue Reading

Bumper Bowling

So yesterday being a crappy, rainy day and half the people in the NY Metro area not going to work, why should I buck the system??? So I took the day off and went bowling with the kids. We tried to go to our usual bowling alley in Baldwin but alas, an orthodox Jewish boys… Continue Reading

So the 4th of July this year fell on a Wednesday which stunk. The best days are Tuesday or Thursday because everyone tends to take the extra day, i.e. Monday or Friday depending on where the holiday falls. But this year, the 4th fell smack in the middle screwing everything up. I was happy we… Continue Reading

Summer Kickoff

Its been a while since I blogged – been hectic lately! It seems that the time between our trip to Disney and now has been a blur! Well I think part of the problem is that summer has shown up early this year. It was the first Memorial Day in years that it was so… Continue Reading

Today was the perfect day to not get out of the pyjamas. The only one who managed to get dressed and break ranks was Danny. So he got voted to go to Walbaums during this Nor’Easter – that will teach him! I am lucky I am even conscious considering I waltzed in the door at… Continue Reading

So I closed my office for Good Friday and took the day off to spend with the boys. I wasn’t too sure about my decision Thursday night when I came home to them in a major time out. I don’t know if the vacation time triggered it, but Matty was in a particularly evil frame… Continue Reading
