Our relaxing Labor Day Weekend

We started out the weekend with a beach morning on Saturday.  The waves were huge.





We had friends over for a barbecue on Saturday afternoon, including Allen's famous ribs.


We went for a bike ride (kids) and walk (the rest of us) up the boardwalk to the skate park.  Gigi (and Jordan) were offered to get on the 4x4 police "car" but Jordan was too scared.




We watched the skateboarders from high up (well some of us did)


On Sunday, we went back to Mother's Beach, both the park and the beach and Jordan saw the Water Bus....of course, he insisted we board the bus, so off we went to Burton Chace Park.  Gigi and Jordan gathered up pieces of the trees in the park (they look like snakes).


Of course, nap time is always part of our day.  Jordan just loves his Daddy.


Today, we made our own bubbles to refill our bubble wands.



Here are pictures of our new walkway in the garden and the beautiful garden in bloom.



We picked and ate many raspberries from the garden.


And, there are some habaneros growing but not quite ripe yet.....we were hoping for some jerk chicken this summer but looks like it will be a fall event.


On Saturday morning, we went to a yard sale and picked up all of these "legos".  We built a few houses with them, including a roof on this one.


This afternoon, Gigi spelled a bunch of words on the fridge, including "Cat", "Hat", "Rat", "Bat", "Fat", "Fit", "Hit", "Pin", "Pink", "Zoe" and "Jordan".  She is learning fast!


A perfect afternoon for some painting...


And more letter practice "Lemonade" for the lemonade stand she painted


Little brother got involved in the fun


And, we ended our weekend at the park for an early evening romp, including dinner at the park.

Happy Halloween 2011

Jordan came with me to my Treehouse Halloween party. Here I am with Michael, the witch.


Mama and I decorated a pumpkin for the pumpkin contest in her office building. We used a LOT of glue and pom poms.

Peace Pumpkin


More pictures from the new Westchester Park


On Halloween night, we had a scary running video upstairs in our house. I was afraid that it made our house haunted and wouldn't go back in at the end of the night until Daddy stopped the video.

Trick or treating, canal-style!

The New Westchester Park (October 2011)


A new park opened in Westchester and both Jordan and I love going there. In addition to this fun slide that we all go down on, there are climbing walls for the little and the bigs (me!) and more.




Who needs a real park to have fun? We love playing at the fountain in front of Wells Fargo at the end of our street. On this day, we had Camille with us!

A new duck park with Isabel

e an
After my horse lesson, we met Isabel and her Mommy and Daddy at a duck park we have never been to. You won't see pictures of the ducks because Mama's phone camera lost its charge and her real camera was left (by her!) at Whole Foods when we were picking up our picnic essentials.
Isabel and I put on our mommy's shoes and played a lot. We rolled on the grass and played with her pink soccer ball and we fed the ducks. We had A LOT of Pirate's Booty to fuel all of our activity.
