a little birdie told me...

This is what woke me up this morning...

Guess the birdie was coming to say Happy Mother's Day!

Cally Likes to Party!!!

This was the site in the backseat after I parked the car in front of our house. Cally celebrated her cousin, Chaya's, birthday today. She enjoyed herself very much at the birthday party luau! The older girls did a Hawaiian dance that they learned, and the younger ones -including Cally - showed off their moves - including the booty shake! She was too funny!

Night out in Philly....

To celebrate Stacy's 22nd birthday, me, my mom, Ashley and Kristina took Stacy out for dinner in Philadelphia. We walked to Rittenhouse Square to snap some photos and saw one of the Philly Phanatic statues. It is part of an art project in Philadelphia. 20 phanatic statues decorated by artists have been placed around the city. We then had the idea to see how many more we could find.... I drove, while Kristina and Stacy ran out and snapped some shots.

Apparently the Phanatic beat Stacy up in this pic.

Lake George

We had a relaxing time at Lake George. I did take a dip in the 44 degree water. I had an Oplinger moment and went for it in my underclothes. Only one truck drove by.

Take me out to the ballgame...

It's baseball time again! My parents took Shauna, Cally and I to the game today. Today they were celebrating the Phanatic's birthday. We got to see the Phanatic celebrate with some of his friends by doing a dance on the field...Cally was really into the music (see video). Although the Phils lost 2-0...at least the weather cooperated so that we could have such a nice afternoon!

Ryan Howard...my favorite Phillie.

Cole Hamels...starting pitcher.

Poor Ruger...

Poor Ruger may finally get some relief. As most of you know, he has had issues with his one paw forcing him to wear booties for the past several months. It always seemed to be bothering him and he couldn't stop licking it!! After several vet visits, it was decided last week that they were going to have to cut part of the one pad out and fuse his two toes together so that it could properly heal. While under, the vet also removed a lump on is stomach. Both items are out for biopsy... In the meantime, while Ruger is on painkillers for the next couple of weeks...he will be sporting this cool green cast.
