Matt and Corey sang/drummed at church today. They really did a great job! Unfortunately I just HAD to fiddle with the settings to the microphone on my camera which totally distorted the sound. I just can't win. Either I run out of memory, the batteries die or I am just plain dumb! If you decide to watch turn your sound down kind of low.

Our Newest Critter

This guy has taken over the birds' nest in the little tree in front of the garage. We think he probably ate the egg that can be seen in the foreground.

Rachael's Reading Bench

2010-07-14T12:33:00.004-04:00

Grandpa Kronimus made this bench out of the headboard of my childhood bed. It was a lovely shade of yellow and living in Mom and Dad's breezeway. I decided to take it to make it into a reading bench for Rachael. That was probably a year and a half ago. Before Christmas my mother-in-law(who's good for getting me to stop procrastinating) and I painted it white. Today I decided that the bench had mocked me long enough and as it was a rainy day Rachael and I set to work. Below are the finished results. Now all it needs is a cushion and we are good to go!

Senior Prom 2010

2010-06-25T12:31:00.005-04:00

Matthew attended his first Senior Prom last night. He went with his good friend, Kaylene. I can't even begin to believe that my little boy is grown-up enough to be going to the prom!! Where does the time go??

The youth of our church held a Talent Show to raise support for their 30 Hour Famine which in supports World Vision's ministry of feeding the hungry of the world. This is a video of Rachael's and Matt's performances. Unfortunately mid-way thru Matt's song my memory card ran out of space. Enjoy!

Leone Family Picnic

2009-08-20T11:38:00.007-04:00

My Uncle Joe and Aunt Lynne hosted a fabulous family picnic on August 8th. As usual they went over the top making sure that everyone had a great time. Past year's highlights include The Bug Man and a magician. This year's entertainment was a HUGE blow-up water slide!!

All the kids(and some adults) had a blast playing on the slide. Here, for your viewing pleasure, are a few more shots.

PS- a special note to Uncle Joe and Aunt Lynne- Thanks for a great day and be sure to check the mail in the next week or so. There may just be something coming your way! ;)

2009-07-14T10:16:00.004-04:00

We had an awesome time as always in Disney this year. We met Tom's parents down there on the 3rd and then on the 6th my parents and my sister's family arrived. I have pictures from the first two days and then my camera died. Luckily my parents drove down so on Monday morning Tom, good guy that he is, drove to Best Buy and bought me a new camera!! Here are the first couple of days. More to follow but I've been on the computer too long today already! :)

Baby Robins

2009-06-17T18:45:00.009-04:00

Every May we have a robin who throws himself into our dining room window over and over and over again. I have always figured that he is protecting a nest from the "enemy bird" he sees not realizing it is his own reflection. However we've never seen a nest. Well, this year he and his mate decided that the cherry tree in front of the window was a good place to take up residency. We noticed the Mama bird sitting on a nest a few weeks ago. Through all the rotten rain we've had she sat and sat and sat.

We never did see any eggs but on Saturday I looked out and this is what I found:

So, now I am a bit obsessed with taking baby bird pictures. Here are the latest.
You can't really tell but she's feeding one of the babies here.

I tried to get both the nest and the Mama in this one. You can just make out one of the babies in the bottom right hand corner.

Hard working Mama!

Rachael's first (and hopefully last) break!

2009-06-08T21:59:00.004-04:00

Rachael jumped off the balance beam at the park this morning and landed on her elbow. The ER doc said that he couldn't see any fracture on the xray but that because of the symptoms (swelling, not extending the arm all the way) he was going to treat it as one. We have an appointment with the orthopedist tomorrow morning.

Kyle participated in his first (and maybe last) 5K run today! He did a great job, finishing up in about 33 minutes. He wasn't really thrilled with the experience. Told me he wasn't doing it ever again and that he almost collapsed twice. We'll see. I hope to run it with him next year.

Kyle and his good buddy, Peter

And they're off!

Smiling and happy- just starting the run

WHB St. Pat's Parade

2009-03-15T13:51:00.009-04:00

Yesterday Rachael, Jackie and Kyle rode on the Rotary float in the St. Patrick's Day Parade. Our High School Interact Club was hosting as many of the other Long Island Exchange students as could come for the weekend. We had our exchange student, Titi, and also Marius from Romania. The kids all marched holding their country's flag and another group of kids held a HUGE American flag. It was pretty cool to see all the different flags and all the kids dressed in their navy blue Rotary blazers which they decorate. Titi's jacket has lots and lots of different pins, some Halloween and Christmas decorations, an "I Love NY" license plate and some Mardi Gras beads that Rachael shared from her jewelry collection. Unfortunately I didn't get pictures of any of the other floats but our float (and the WHB Brownies with Katie marching) had the cutest kids so I guess it's all good! :)

Titi is the one in the back with the St Pat's Hat on and Marius is the one to Titi's left with the black baseball cap.

Art Show at Love of Learning

2009-03-09T19:13:00.002-04:00

Yesterday Rachael's pre-school held their annual art show. They have been very busy creating all kinds of projects and murals(for some reason I didn't take many pictures of the murals). Many of the projects were based on literature, music and art. The paper plate animals were Goldilocks and the Three Bears and The Three Little Pigs, there was a "It Looked Like Spilt Milk" project. The Rainbow Fish, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Caps for Sale and Chicka Chicka Boom Boom were represented. There also was an On Top of Old Smokey mural and a mural of Monet's "Water Lilies" painting among other very clever pieces. Rachael was so proud to show us all of her work. And now I share it with you! :)

Rachael Sings at Church

2009-02-17T21:12:00.001-05:00

Unfortunately you can't hear Rachael very well because the CD was on too loud but you can see she's singing away.

Winter Fun

2009-02-03T16:58:00.004-05:00

Rachael and Kyle have found a very enthusiastic snow friend in Titi. This kid comes from Thailand where it gets to 120 degrees and he loves the snow and cold. He actually is hoping for some -20 degree days! I tell him to give me a break and quit wishing for more snow and cold!

These are a couple from the last snow that I never got around to posting.

Rachael's Furry Friend

2009-01-16T18:30:00.003-05:00

Earlier this month Rachael decided that she wanted to make a bird feeder out of a yogurt cup. So she and Tom proceeded to go out and do just that. They filled it up and the animals found it quite quickly. This squirrel was especially grateful!

Ponies and Bunnies

2008-11-01T21:00:00.007-04:00

Rachael went to her friend Liam's birthday party today. As we pulled in the driveway, Rachael said, "Look at the big brown dog, Mommy!" What she was seeing this:
There were actually two ponies. One was for riding and one was being brushed and "styled" by all the kids. Rachael loved riding on the pony, waiting in line over and over and over again. After the party she wanted to stop by Aunt Tia's and see the bunnies. I have some really cute pictures but you'll have to look at them here because Blogger is being testy tonight.

Halloween

2008-11-01T17:55:00.004-04:00

Here are a few shots from Halloween. We always get together at Grammie and Pa's with Cindy, Brian and the girls, Missy, Cindy's friend Jen and her son, and Kyle's friend Peter. This year we were joined by Tia, Olivia and Grandma, too! As you can see The Little Mermaid was popular with our trick-or-treaters. Not only did we have 2 Ariels, we had Flounder and even an Ursula although somehow I missed getting pictures of that(you can thank me later, Cindy!) :) Matt and Kyle sported some authentic costumes with Kyle wearing Uncle Steve's fatigues and Matt rockin a polyester leisure suit provided by Uncle Brian's great Uncles Joe and Bill. As usual we all had lots of fun trick-or-treating and hanging out at Grammie and Pa's!

Here are the rest of the photos.

Rachael's Pumpkin Patch Fieldtrip

2008-10-21T15:34:00.004-04:00

Today Rachael's pre-school class went on a trip to Harbes Farm to pick pumpkins. Despite dreary forecasts the weather turned out to be beautiful. The kids had a lot of fun on a very informative (YAWN for 3 and 4 year olds) hay ride, got to pick a pumpkin, feed some animals, play on the playground and have a snack. It brought back memories as this was the farm that we always visited on our trips back when I was the teacher! Here are a few of the shots I got.

He re are the rest.

2008-10-16T20:13:00.004-04:00

Taking pictures in the school gym is giving me fits!!! I can't seem to get any good shots. I suppose if I knew more about my camera that might help. When I turn the flash on, it's too dark. When I turn the flash off, everything's blurry and when I put the camera on sports mode things are good until they start moving and then they're really blurry! All you professional photographers out there, got any advice?? Anyway, these are the pics I got of Matt at this afternoon's game.

This is the best one (even though it's dark) and these are the rest.

Pumpkin Pickin' and Pa's Birthday

2008-10-07T14:35:00.004-04:00

This past weekend my aunt, uncle and cousin came down from "the north country" and we decided to do some pumpkin picking, corn maze-ing and hay riding. We headed out on Saturday morning on our way to Stakey's (or Stinkey's, or Stankey's if you're Anna). Stakey's had a bumper crop of lots of different pumpkins and everyone had a great time picking just the "perfect" one. Then Tom, Aunt Bernadette and the bigger kids (Katie included) decided to tackle the corn maze. The girls outsmarted the boys and beat them out of the maze. Meanwhile, Jackie and Rachael did some jumping in the bounce house. Then we all took a "hay" ride sans the hay- they removed it because it was slippery. Wasn't quite the same, I must say.

Here's the link to the rest of the pumpkin pictures.

Afterwards we all headed over to Grandma and Pa's to celebrate Pa's birthday.

We tried to get all Pa's girls for this picture but Liv wasn't really into it.

Happy Birthday, Pa!

Ah, the zoo!

2008-09-23T15:54:00.007-04:00

This past weekend we hung out at one of our favorite haunts- The Bronx Zoo. Tia, Ryan and Baby O met us and we spent the day walking and checking up on all the animals. Ryan was especially interested in the monkeys, giraffes, and chinchillas. The kids are vying for a tapir but at least we know THAT'S not going to happen. Rachael's favorite was the butterfly house and the Bug Carousel. It was a bit chilly but a really nice day, nonetheless.

I told Matt he should be very glad I only clean his ears!!

This is one tired Momma gorilla!

One More Day

2008-09-06T17:46:00.004-04:00

After the big guys all moseyed off to school we of the bon bon eating set(ha, ha) decided to take the "littles" to the beach for one more carefree summer day. Rachael and I were joined by Tia, Olivia, and Tia's niece Abbey and nephew Jonah(they are actually big enough for school but started a day later than our kids). We were met by Grandma and Lissa and Seth. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Ginny was also coming down to the bay. It was a nice day and a nice way to hold on to summer for just a little while longer!

Have you seen my babies???

2008-09-03T21:36:00.006-04:00

They were here just a minute ago but now I have...

a high school freshman,

and a sixth grader!!

How can that be???

Paradise!

2008-09-03T20:51:00.005-04:00

On Sunday we spent another glorious LI summer day at the beach with our good friends the Penneys and the Fourniers. Summertime is definitely the best time to live where we do(geeks aside of course)! The kids had lots of fun swimming and playing some games and the men even enjoyed some kayaking. As for Mary, Celia and myself, we just basked in the sun and "caught up". After a great day on the ocean side we walked over the dune, back to the Penney's boat on the bayside and Randy cooked us up a very tasty dinner. We even had some fresh from the bay clams that the kids had dug. Delicious! We had a bit of trouble getting the anchor out but other than that- perfection! I hate to say good-bye to summer.

This is what I get when I want a "nice" picture from these two! This was probably the third try.

Which I guess is better than this!

Yes, there are more. Probably not really worth looking at but here they are nonetheless.

Girls Day at the Beach

2008-08-24T12:14:00.003-04:00

Tia, Olivia, Rachael and I decided to head to the beach while my boys were enjoying a day of sailing with my dad. We called my mom and she met us with Jackie and Katie in tow. The girls had lots of fun as always. Miss O loved the water and thought she could walk right in without her Mama. We're hoping to get a few more days in this week before reality sets in once again!

Here are the rest of the day's shots.

Where's the Beach??!!

2008-08-19T20:58:00.006-04:00

I can't believe it's August 19th and the Tribune has yet to record beach activity! All that will be rectified here! But here's a sneak peek. On Sunday we (along with Grandma) were treated to a trip to the beach with our friends the Penney's. It was a gorgeous day if a bit windy and everyone had lots of fun. Then on Tuesday we made it down to the bay with my mom, my sister and the girls. Again it was a windy day but as you can see the kids had a blast in the sand and the "surf".

life after Disney!!! My camera has been on a extended hiatus. I've had a hard time remembering it lately and the pictures don't take themselves so ...
Last night Rachael and I attended a Mermaid Tea Party with her friend Lindsey and Lindsey's mom, Sandy. The girls were outfitted in mermaid attire, got some tattoos, and had their nails and make-up done. There were some games to play and a mermaid story time. The tea party was fish-shaped cheese sandwiches, goldfish crackers, assorted berries, a crab sugar cookie and M & M's, with apple juice substituting for tea. The parents were treated to wine, cheese, crackers and strawberries. The girls had a great time. Lindsey brought a goody bag for Rachael with matching Ariel shirts, flip flops and lunch boxes. It was a bit pricey but fun none the less. Here are a few shots.

And here are a few more.

And now, may I present... more Disney!

2008-07-28T17:55:00.006-04:00

This year both Kyle and Rachael participated in the parade in town and then on Monday we spent a really nice day over at Cindy and Brian's where the kids (young and old alike) had great fun out on the lake in the kayaks!

"Ballerina School Show"

2008-06-08T21:05:00.010-04:00

On Saturday Rachael had her first ballet recital. I'm not sure which one of us was more excited! Here are some pictures and a video. The video is pretty long but we had a few people who weren't able to attend so... feel free to turn it off when you've had enough! :) Her class was actually a creative movement class. They only just started learning the "real" ballet positions not too long ago. It's not your typical recital- that will come next year after the Intro to Ballet & Tap class- but it was still pretty cute!

A Day at the Zoo

2008-06-06T17:47:00.001-04:00

Kyle's class had a field trip to the Bronx Zoo yesterday. As our membership is due to expire at the end of the month Tom and I decided to take Rachael and meet the kids there. Here are the (by now pretty predictable) pictures.

2008-06-03T20:35:00.006-04:00

Rachael spends much of her "free" time picking flowers. It doesn't matter what kind as long as she's allowed to pick she'll pick. This is a very interesting phenomenon to me as the boys never spent one iota of time picking flowers. To Rachael it is very important and we have each (as well as some of you) been the recipient of her bouquets. One of her favorite things to do is to present Tom with half dead blooms and tell him that he should bring them to his "friends" at work. I guess I just wanted to preserve a bit of this and thought you might enjoy it as well.

Gardening

We had such a beautiful weekend last weekend that we had to forgo the indoor chores and concentrate on some outdoor ones. Tom, who is always extending one garden or another, decided to work on the one near the garage. He extended that around the back of the house. He was fortunate enough to have help with this task- some willing, some NOT. It got done anyway and then we planted the rest of the 5 flats of flowers that were patiently waiting.

or Children's Museum of the East End, if you'd prefer. Rachael, Jackie, Caleb, Jenn and I ventured out east on Wednesday to explore the museum. It's a really nice little place. It has lots of cool interactive exhibits for the kids to check out- even an art room at their disposal- and it's got a lot of east end history embedded in each exhibit. The kids had a lot of fun and having ice cream at Sip n Soda just capped the day off perfectly!

Party Girl!

Today Rachael's friends came over for a little get together. I had a bunch of things planned but mostly they just wanted to play on the playground. We decorated some visors, played Pass the Parcel, Pin the Flower on Ariel, had lunch and cake, opened presents and ran around outside. She received a lot of great gifts and had lots of fun with her friends!

Annual Easter Egg Hunt

2008-03-22T17:20:00.003-04:00

The weather cooperated today and the girls had a fun time collecting eggs. The boys have "aged out" of our community egg hunt and stayed home to help Grandma and Pa with some yard work.

Happy Birthday, Tom!

We love you and are looking forward to seeing you again sometime soon!
