Greek Festival 2011






We made it to the Greek Festival 2 years ago... it was cold, rainy, crowded, and we had a 2 yo and James was a week or less old, but we still had a great time and the food was amazing.  Last year we just plain missed it.  This year we got there at a descent time and had a blast.  The food was, of course great, but the highlight was Noah's dancing... We all know that he has had a knack for the dance since day one... he heard the band playing first, then saw 4 or 5 older ladies dancing in the center and had this incredible urge to dance with them... not just dancing to his own beat on the side... Thankfully this sweet woman saw his strong desire, took him by the hand and away they went... Here are some pictures, I will try to upload the video later... Oh yeah... Gabe joined in the dancing too... quite a scene in his post call scrubs and clogs.  James did not have as much fun as Noah and was super grouchy the whole time, but he was quelled by the Greek desserts:)

Father's Day 2011- Funtown/Splashtown Trip

















After nap time on Sunday we took the kids to Funtown Splashtown USA for our annual Father's Day aka cheap day at the Park.  Gabe was free, James was free, Noah was free after 3pm and my ticket was also at a discount... and for the second year in a row the weather was great!  We started at Splashtown where the kids loved the water... it was cold and despite being purple James refused to get out of the water... he even went on a big water slide with Gabe.  Noah, on the other hand, was a bit smarter, and after a few minutes in the water he preferred to lay out on the lounge chairs... too funny.  They both very much enjoyed the amusement park part of the park with lots of rides that were just the right side for both of them... looking forward to next year already!

James's Second Birthday Party!




















We celebrated with James's party on Sunday morning, since Gabe finally had the day off. He loves the "Cat in the Hat", so that was the theme we went with.  He had a great time celebrating with lots of friends, family, presents and bubbles:)
