Last Trip to NYC and Yankee Stadium

Our last trip to NYC was a freezing, wet one!
The girls in Time Square...until we meet again...

Outside of Yankee Stadium!

Yankees vs. Rangers

So, this is at the beginning of the game... Those nice smiles didn't last long. The wind started blowing, rain came and sitting out in the 42' tempeture, with the Rangers stinking...well, needless to say, we didn't last the whole game. But, it was cool to watch part of a game in the new Yankee Stadium!

It's been so cool to say, "Let go to NYC for the weekend or the day!" But now it is time for another adventure!

Kayla's Recital Costumes

Hip Hop - "Ice, Ice, Baby"

Ballet - "Lavender Blue"

For Uncle Craig...

Two Easter's ago, Uncle Craig told the kids that if they wanted to dye eggs, they had to try eating a hard boiled egg. Of course Ryan and Kayla said, "OK!" and Rachel and Megan said "no way!" Well, Kayla liked it!!! Now that it's Easter season, Kayla reminded me how much she likes hard boiled eggs. As you can imagine, no one else in the house likes them, so it doesn't even cross my mind to make them, plus --- they REALLY smell!

I have never made hard boiled eggs, so Kayla and I learned together. I read each step and Kayla took action. I didn't think about taking pictures until the eggs were ready to be pealed. Kayla really did each step herself: pan, water, stove, boil, timer, eggs to ice cold water, etc.

Pealing the egg.

Pretty good for a first hard boiled attempt!

"Mmmm," said Kayla! "Smelly," said Mommy! ;0)

So thanks, Uncle Craig, for the memory that Kayla has of enjoying a healthy snack and the reminder to her mean,picky mom that she doesn't introduce and continue making healthy (stinky) food for her children! ;0)

P.S. - If you were wondering...yes, Rachel and Megan did get to dye eggs, but it was a nice try to get them to taste a new food!

Phillies vs. Astros

A trip to Philadelphia, to watch the Phillies play the Astros, at Citizens Bank Park.

More of a social event (you know...eating, talking, people watching, asking Mack lots of sports related questions and more eating!) for us girls, but fun family time that we all enjoy!

When the Phillies make a home run, the "Liberty Bell" lights up and rings!

Close up of the Home Run Bell!

The Astros lost, but it was fun to visit a new stadium!
