The final shuttle launch, the end of an era which shaped our imaginations!

Bummaw came down for the big event.  We watched the shuttle leave the launch pad from the DiGilarmo's living room, then....
ran outside in hopes of watching it's ascent to outer space.  Unfortunately, there was too much cloud cover to be able to see it, but we could hear it!!
 And they we got to see the DiGilarmo's pet alligator!
We are so proud of Aunt Mimi!
 The kids had a wonderful weekend with Bummaw!

4th of July 2011

My sincere apologies for the huge delay in blog updates.  Over the last month I have learned a hard lesson that Mac's are not designed for you to be able to organize your own files.  You can imagine how hard it is for me to let Apple organize my computer.  I am trying to let go of my control issues with organization so that I can play nice with the Mac.  Thank you for your patience, hope it was worth the wait!

A big thanks to Cheryl for suggesting we take a picture of the whole crew!  Bummaw and Papa will appreciate this one!
Brosnan and Will enjoying cupcakes for Will's 1/2 birthday!
 This year, the next two are as close as we are going to get to a picture of the boys cooperating for a picture!

 Bobby D and Brosnan feeding the ducks :)
 Sorry Amanda..... when I can organize my own files, it is much easier for me to rename the photo and ensure that I upload the one with your eyes open.  :(
 I call this one, "Peace on the 4th of July"
 Patriotic Baby Lane!  
Don't worry Lane, when Brosnan turned 2 his older buddies stopped calling him 'baby'.  
It won't last forever!
 Chris had a spontaneous moment and dove in the pool, Brosnan was right behind him!

 When Will and Brosnan get together, there are always some pictures that look like this!

A big thanks to all of our military heros for preserving our freedom!  And aren't you glad that this is no longer your battle gear!
Our 4th of July treats!
