Rose Bowl

When you wish upon a star…sometimes dreams really do come true. I’ll be honest, I wasn’t super excited about traveling to LA for the game, everyone coughing on the plane, not a non stop route…but I made it. A wonderful New Year of homemade Korean food. (So darn good). Play time with my niece, funny …

Snow

Snow also arrived this weekend.  Now, they originally forecasted a dusting, but by noon it was clear we were getting much more, as in6 inches. The boy was so super excited. I believe the words were “hooray, hooray, hooray”. While mommy thought, no!, no!, no!  As for the pups, they dashed around in the snow, …

Basketball

This weekend, Zachary played his first basketball game. And we’ve never seen his cheeks a brighter red. There was lots of running..and I mean up and down the floor.  We got tired just watching Zachary just missed on his shots…but I liked that he wasn’t afraid to get in there and be aggressive. And when …

B XMAS

We had the B Christmas before we left. I heard it was fabulous. Unfortunately, mommy missed it because of delays, as in 5 flight cancellations.  Zachary certainly enjoyed it and loved his toys I heard the highlight was Mom Mom opening her Make America Great Again hat. I’m sure she’ll wear it with pride We …

Christmas

Ive been a little slow updating our Christmas. It went crazy fast First, there was the crazy long drive. The boy must have asked one hundred times, “are we there yet”. In other news, not a word from Bella the whole trip. I honestly thought we accidentally left her at the house. We went to …

Pizza Pizza

So every year, we head to our favorite pizza joint with a lot of our friends and family, post Christmas. While not the best of ambiance, the pizza is pure gold.  My brother and I crave it. This year, we added a new member, toddler Colette.  She ate with the best of them…and we are …

Deep Thoughts

Some days the world goes dark. This was a tough week for mommy. My Aunt Leta passed away. We knew it was coming but it still cut to the core. Good person, even better soul. I have a lot of awesome memories with Aleta  Here are a few: Hearing the word “Yucka” when describing gross …

Brandywine

So, we went to the Brandywine River Museum last weekend with Mom Mom and Pop Pop.  We had never been. It is fabulous. The boy was enamored with the toy trains. Who could blame him?  It was unreal, complete with engineers. But mommy couldn’t get over the critters, cute little ornaments made naturally.  And do …

Karate Xmas

A couple of weeks ago, we attended the karate Christmas party. Needless to say, Zachary had a blast. There was much running around and eating.  And even Santa made an appearance, much to the kid’s delight Really fun night, with a great group of parents and kids.

BBall

So this morning the little guy had his first basketball clinic.  And mommy was super stoked.  The boy did not disappoint. Three separate girls from school approached us. What up Z Dog?  Which I found quiet interesting.  This from a boy who asked last night. Do girls marry girls?  Whichever, of course, we explained could …
