Halloween 09

Notre Dame was playing in San Antonio on Halloween, so we have pictures of the game and the boys dressed up!

Coveralls

I know I haven't posted in a while, but with school in full swing, life has been pretty busy. The boys are taking swim lessons on Saturday mornings. Tomorrow will be the third week, and they are loving every minute. I don't have any pictures of them swimming, because Patrick and I are in the water with them during their lessons. It is a blast, and I'm so glad that we signed them up!

Here is Tony in some coveralls. His great Grandpa Tony wears coveralls just like this, so we couldn't resist!! We have been searching high and low for 2 1/2 years, and Grandma found some!

Hawaii

I had the great fortune of going to Hawaii with my friend Joyce. We stayed at the Hale Koa Resort for five nights. It was right on the beach, and could not have been located on a better spot...Of course I missed Patrick and the boys, so I am hoping that we can go back once they are older! These are some very personable sea lions that we saw at Sea Life Park.

If you look closely, you can see two Hawaiin green sea turtles. This was taken onboard our submarine ride. (see below)

This is Diamond Head. It erupted only once, roughly 200,000 years ago. I spent a morning and hiked it. It made me realize two things...One: I love geology...Two: Man am I out of shape!

A Hawaiin Green Sea Turtle basking in the sun. Have I mentioned that my favorite animal is a sea turtle?? The day that we went snorkling, I saw four right below me. It was AMAZING!!!

My little cowboys

Here's a few pictures of the night we got back from New York. They were both clowning around, as always. Glad to see they weren't traumatized...

Time Square

Grand Central Station

Patrick and I just got back from our trip to New York. My Mom and Stan watched Logan, while Patrick's Mom and Dad watched Tony. No small feat for 5 days... We are very thankful that we have such great grandparents for our boys. There is no way that we would have been able to see half of what we did in New York toting them around. It was way too hot, with too much walking. With that said...here are some shots around town. We rode the subway everywhere, and got to see some great sites!
