Merry Christmas!

Luca is 4!

Hard to believe that Luca is already 4! He had a great birthday celebration with his family and friends.

All spiffed up.


It was a good kind of chaos for Luca's party.


He got what he asked for. A blue lightsaber to match his green one.

October

In October we went to some CMU football games...



Daddy ran the Chicago Marathon...



We played in the leaves...



And we went trick-o-treating! I was Corn on the Cob, Nico was a Hot Dog!

Fall in Alma

Now that Luca likes to ride his balance bike, he loves to go for rides around Alma College. Nico just loves to fall asleep in the stroller. We are very lucky to live so close to such a great little college.

The Virginia Zoo

I love the shots I am able to get with my new camera...

Loving the zoo


Sleeping like always


This might be the best place for him! I told the zoo to make us an offer...

OBX

A very special place...

Summer Fun

What a great time we are having on the OBX as always! We started by doing a little race on our first day here. Daddy ran the 2 mile OBX killer dunes race and the dunes almost killed him. Then Luca ran the kids race. We have been going to the beach and spending time with family! We love July!!!
