Relaxation



I can remember when I was little going to the creek near our house and playing in the water I could have done this for hours. Well I can't give my children the opportunity to play in a creek near our house but yesterday the boys had a great time playing at Corbet's Glen. This is only about 20 Min's from our house right off the express-way.(You would never know)

I needed time to myself after studying for NRP on Sunday and the kids really wanted to go somewhere fun. So Chris and I decided to go the park with lunch from wegmans and then off to the water.

Andrew had been asking if we could go. This became one of favorite spots to last summer. It was so great to watch as they tried skipping rocks and climbing the falls. Sam loved the water and was soaked from head to toe. Josh was finding the biggest rocks to toss in the water along with the best tree to climb. Andrew was in his glory, he almost cried because we were leaving.

It was so awesome to watch the kids have so much fun. I can't wait to go back and see what the fall will bring. The kids will be so excited to the color changes.

Catch Up Time

Here is what is going on at the Dane House

We came back from one of the best vacations ever (I have to say that it rates right up there we all had such a great time)
We had a week full of birthdays, doctors apts and soccer games. I can't believe my baby turned 4 almost 2 weeks ago. Sam only wanted a scooby cake and to eat it with Gabe so that is what he got. Then we had a big party for him and me with family and friends on my birthday. He was even willing to share with Janna. Then this past Sat Chris finished out the celebrations and we had more cake, I am really not sure if I will ever order from wegmans in Canandaigua again. 2 out of 3 cakes in a week were wrong and the last time the lady who brought it to me was saying sorry before even giving me the cake.

The boys are both finished with soccer till the fall and I am so glad I have a little bit of a break. I loved having them play, but I hated to be there every night of the week.

Andrew and Chris both made out OK last week with all the hospital stuff. I felt like I spent almost everyday at the hospital between those two and work. Sam goes for his 4 year old check up tomorrow. Oh yes Andrew has received permission to have a milkshake at least 3 times a week to help him gain. For once I wish someone to tell me to try and gain.

Sunday I started weight watchers again Courtney has agreed to start with me so please know I will be 20lbs lighter by Christmas


I will add some new photos soon I am having trouble uploading now
