New Pics That I Promised

Hi Gang.

Looks like we are getting a few days of 50+ weather. Thank God. After GTL'ing with Michael, here are a few pics to look at while winding down. The last pic is the most recent.

Joey Turned 1?

Hello. Anybody there?

Nicole yelled at the other day for not posting anything anymore. I'd like to post a few things before I venture out to shovel. Please note, I hate the cold weather. Why do we live here? Mike, how much snow did you get?

As far as the blog goes, I missed a lot of stuff over the past 9 months or so. First, I'd like to post some birthday stuff, followed by more recent pics, followed followed by some holiday classics, and then the post that you all have been waiting for - a countdown of the events of 2009. By the way, if these clowns continue to post stuff promoting their garbage, I'll have to protect this with a passcode.

On June 14th, Joey turned 1. I thought the day was great and his first 12 months were the best of my life... only if Maroni's drove down wyncliffe...

Even though we didn't take many pics, here are some to help us recall Joey's 1st berfday.

Disney Trip 2009

Hi Guys.

I know, I know, I know...

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry...

About a month ago, we went to Disney. Aside from coming home with what Doctor Gorrie believed to be the H1N1, the trip was great. Joey was so good and exceeded my expectations. He had a really nice time with his cousin. Also, a big thank you to Mike and Kim for the wonderful vacation club suites at the Saratoga Springs and the Animal Kingdom Lodge. I'm sure that most of you saw pics from Pop Joe, but here are a few more. Thanks and see you soon.

Here I Come

So you better break North!

Pipers Piping

No, this has nothing to do with Christmas or the song. I just couldn't think of anything creative with the word 11 in it. Quick lightning round quiz, can you think of anything funny or creative about the number 11?

Anyway, Joey was 11 months old way back on May 14th. Here are some pics:

Happy Mother's Day - A Walk in the Park

First, Happy be-lated Mother's Day to all of you Mommys out there. This was Nicole's first Mother's Day. Joey designed a very nice hardback photo book for his Mommy on kodak.com. He did a very good job actually - smart kid. Cousin Michael Federico was over and we took a walk to the park by Wyncliffe Heights. Have fun checking out the pics. The last pic is by far the greatest of all time.

Ice Cream of the Future

My first encounter with this futuristic experiment was back in 1992 at Typhoon Lagoon. Little did I know that Dippin' Dots would still be labelled as the Ice Cream of the Future 17 years later. At a recent trip to ACME, I was thrilled to see that these delicious droplets were on sale for 2 awesome reasons: 1.) Nicole does not get mad when things are on sale. 2.) This was the perfect opportunity to introduce my son to this out-of-this-world delicacy. Have fun checkin' out the pics and if you're still eating Breyer's, Where have you been for the last 17 years?
