Thanks to the kindness of our husbands, my friend Jen and I got to enjoy a night out in a restaurant with no kids’ menu or crayons visible on the table. Jen suggested the Bento Cafe, because she scored a $25 restaurant.com gift certificate for only $3! The only caveat was that we had to have a bill of $35, but… Read more »

Not much to discuss other than we had a fun day of exploration and photos.  Hunter met the biggest Buzz Lightyear he had ever seen.  He was on cloud nine.  Enjoy the images.

My intention is not to include too many words with this segment, but I felt this week I wanted to explain.  Those of you who have worked through this very difficult economic time know that work life over the past few months has been quite stressful.  At Disney, we have been playing the waiting game for the past 6 weeks… Read more »

So we decided to enjoy the beautiful weather on Saturday and go to the Polynesian Resort to enjoy Emily’s favorite BBQ pork sandwich from the quick service restaurant there.  The day was perfect, and Hunter was in a very funny mood.  The quote of the day, however, was when Hunter turned around to the family sitting behind us and said emphatically and enthusiastically,… Read more »

Watching GMA Weekend on Saturday morning, Patrick and I both had an “A-ha Moment” during the “My Week in Three Words” segment.  We thought it would be fun to capture Hunter’s week in three words each week until he is three (or maybe longer!) and post them on here.  If you are not familiar with the idea behind the segment,… Read more »

Birthday fest, continued

Today we were ready for adventure but looking for something a little more low key than a theme park. It was a beautiful day out – sunny, a tad breezy, with the temp hovering somewhere in the 70s. Who could say no to an adventure on a day like this? Our plan unfolded and we decided to ask Jen, Danny,… Read more »

After a fun day on Sunday I had to head back to work, so Emily and Sara spent some quality time with the boys.  On Monday the four of them went to the playground, followed by shopping and cupcakes at the Waterford Lakes shopping area (had to give the boys some incentive).  We enjoyed a delicious home cooked meal that Emily… Read more »

After a delicious Sonny’s BBQ dinner sponsored by Vern Shukoski, I bid adieu to the Harvest boys and headed back to Orlando. Sara and Zach arrived in Orlando at 1:00 o’clock that afternoon and Emily picked them up at the airport and entertained them the entire day. I arrived home from the Harvest at 11:30 p.m. and the house was… Read more »
