Pajama Party at Grandma Liz's

In April Eddie and Vi went to Chicago for Tina's confirmation. While they were there they had a pajama party (this has led to Vi wanting pajama parties every couple of weeks). She has such a blast.

They got into their pjs and went to rent movies.

They also ate popcorn and wore candy necklaces. Vi had so much fun hanging with the girls.

Grandma Liz made chocolate covered strawberries. Vi could not get enough. As you can see she loved them.

Vi is going to be in the paper!

Melissa is putting an ad in the South Mountain Paper for the studio. Below is the ad. This picture was taken at the June recital. I, of course, am going to get numerous copies of the paper.

Bear down Chicago Bears...

As you already know we are HUGE Bears fans. The first two weeks have been crazy but we think we figured out how to get the Bears to win. Vi needs to wear her Urlacher jersey.
Here are me and Vi cheering on the Bears.

Vi sporting her Urlacher jersey. Since he is out for the season she has taken on his motivation.


GO BEARS!!

My Diva

Vi really knows how to strike a pose.

What happens in Vegas...

...gets posted on Vi's blog! We went to Vegas for Labor Day Weekend to relax and hang out with my family. We had a blast!! It was so good to see everyone...

Eddie hasn't been to Vegas since we got married. After the whirlwind of joyous emotions raced back from that faithful day he enjoyed a little gambling.

Vi and Madeline were happy to enjoy birthday number 3 for 2009. Another plus was that I got to see my sister prego. I didn't get any pictures but I am sure the kid already knows who I am. How do I know this you may ask...I bumped into her belly about 3 times. I am not used to it sticking out so far! :)

Denise came in from FL to celebrate her 50th (I know she looks great right). Matthew and his roommate Kirk flew in from Montana. They had one more summer fling before starting back to college. What a way to end the summer huh boys ;0

Brenda pulled herself away from the hubbie and her baby boy to get some gambling in. I haven't seen her in 3 years and about 10 for Eddie so I am glad she came in.

Evie and Leonard rounded out our group. I love sitting and talking with them!! Evie always makes me laugh!! She is the grandmother I never had...zing!

We had a GREAT time seeing the family! Even though we didn't win any money the rewards of this trip exceeded any amount we could have won!!

Much love to you all!!
