Father's Day weekend










We had a great time at GiGi and Pop's again!! Ben went swimming for the first time and me, Matt, and Carol were like the paparazzi taking pictures of him.  He was loving it.  Then of course my mom bought him a ton of things that kept him entertained: a huge plane and a tool belt.....  He also did a lot of dancing and showed us how he puts his hands in the air and praises God. Man I can't wait to be a parent!!

I am so thankful for my heavenly father I really could not have asked for a better person.  The older I get the more I realize what a neat person my dad is.  He has taught me all of the important things in life.  He has shown me unconditional love and how to treat people.  Thank you FurFACE I love you so much.  I try and honor you today and everyday!
Here is a compilation of pictures most of Ben.  Sarah was home for a few days for the memorial service.  It was weird that she wasn't here with us at mom and dads!

Dave Matthews Band at Busch Stadium






What a Blast!!!  We started our day at 12:00 at the pool which you can tell by all the pictures(we are all fried).  The we (The Klug's, The Ewing's, The Sartori's and Hannah/Bird) met for dinner at Roxanne's at 5:00 which was delicious.  Timmy of course bet on the horse race so he was glued to the TV.  Then off to the concert we went.  When we first got there we were all just radiating so much heat from our burns and dripping with sweat.  As the evening went on it cooled off and it turned out to be a beautiful night.  The music was great a lot of old school Dave Matthews which is pretty much the only Dave Matthews we know.  
There was one little instance were these 19 year old boys were sitting behind me and kept touching my hair and my neck.  I kept trying to ignore them.  Of course Timmy was a few rows away dancing because it was an empty row(when he dances it is best have a lot of room because he is all over the place) so he had no clue.  Dan actually saw them doing this and he gave them the evil eye and they were like "I'm sorry Man."  I though
t this would be the end of it.  I guess I didn't realize I was dealing with 19 year old drunk boys.  All the sudden they dumped their beer on my hair and before I knew it all of the six boys we were with and then a few around the crowd that were annoyed with these drunk boys were in there face yelling at them.  I really felt like we were in high school.  The 19 year old boys actually went and got their sister to confront us.  It was pretty funny.  Long story short we ended up getting the usher to get them out of there.  That was our excitement for the night.



On a much more sad note......Aunt 
Margie Polizzi who has been battling cancer for 18+ years went home to be with the Lord on June 6, 2008.  She had a Bone Marrow transplant in March 2008 and bless her heart she really had a hard time recovering.  My thoughts and prayers go out to her family in this time of need. She really lived her life to the fullest!! She suffers no more.
