Sorry for the delay - I can't believe I almost let a month go by without a post. I think now that I am on fb I tend to leave this little baby alone... But I'm back with a whopper! I had to get surgery on a torn meniscus - HORRENDOUS!! Am still limping around and it ain't no fun... Here I am post op.

Ain't Fri 13 for nothing

Missed being hit by this by minutes...
Thanks Angel looking out for us!

Spencer in park

My big dude in the park this past w/end

Margaux the next delia?

Here is my little chef making pancakes...

Spence and Charlie

Not sure if these got posted before but couldn't resist posting after finding them.

Happy New Year!

Everyone!
Had a lovely night at Spencer's friend, Charlie's house - big party - 5 families... 9 kids... all 5 and under - thus lots of bubbly to be drank. joe using his iPhone to use the grill...And of course, clothes came off!

Margaux the wise

Marguax's body observation at school.

Radio City Rockettes

2nd annual trip! Again, we knew one of the dancers so got a big treat and got backstage. So much fun... Next year I think Margaux will be ready for it, she is still a WEE bit young I feel to get it.. Here is me with Spence at the tree at 30 Rock, and the boys (Spence, Campbell and Denim) on the G train... Ho ho ho..!

Kids in Philly

They really do love each other.. How long it lasts is another question.

Crazy weather continues

Honestly, 69 degrees on November 28th?? Here is proof and here is Margaux playing outside.
Global warming!!!

Mum's final resting place

We had a whirlwind trip to London/Edinburgh/NY - thanks BA for sucking as always and delaying us 19 hours coming back.. But I digress... Here is the final spot Heather chose. Of course we were blocked out by a huge fence but that didn't stop us morphing our inner spiderman and scaling it to get to where she wanted to be scattered...
If you are ever there, is the Tillicoultry Glen at the Ochils...

Most gorgeous ring bearer/flower girl ever

INSANITY

Just not on the news.
It won't' stop snowing!!!
I am hibernating till April

LA fun and Weather Madness

I was lucky to be in California last w/end, one night at the Ace Hotel in Palm Springs, and two nights in LA, staying at the Four Seasons (bunked with a friend there on business) - who should be there but Sophia Vegara from Modern Family (oh and Lionel Ritchie but didn't get a shot of him) - here she is looking insanely gorgeous.

Meanwhile, it's October 29.. and it's SNOWING here in NY!!! Talk about trick or treat - TRICK!!!

Wedding fun

We just got back from an exhausting but super fun wedding of Joe's sister Theresa. We were ALL in it, me the world's oldest braid, Joe an usher, and Spence and Margaux as ring bearer/flower girl. I'm sure I will add more photos soon but here is a sampling for now. The kids did amazing, even during an hours mass, not one word of complaint. Of course they made up for it on the way back to NY...
