My Beauty

I am not one to brag, but when it comes to my kids, hey, I will! Ruby Alice is simply beautiful, no? I cannot believe how much I love her.

Ten Year Wedding Anniversary

Time moves too fast, that is certain. Ben and I celebrated our ten year anniversary on 11/2/12. We spent the weekend in Vegas with my sisters and their husbands which was fabulous. We had a wonderful weekend eating yummy dinners, lounging at the spa and just spending time together- it was wonderful. I don't often express how much Ben means to me and I don't want to get too gushy here on this blog, but honestly, he is the best decision I ever made. I could not ask for a better husband, partner and most important of all father for my children. Being married to him is just easy, and wonderful, and engaging and simply perfect. I cannot wait to spend another 10 years with him. I love you, Ben.

Halloween 2012

Ruby started walking the week before Halloween, of course when I was in Dublin all week on a work retreat. Ben of course got it on video, which I guess will have to do! This year we had our annual Halloween party at our house for all the kids friends to come dressed up and spend time playing and eating lots of cupcakes and treats. This year, unlike last, was warm so we moved the party outside which was a perfect venue. The kids had a blast and are really loving this yearly tradition. The boys of course had a super adorable parade at school (they were so proud!) and they worked hard on carving their pumpkins with daddy). On Halloween itself our good friends the Picco family came over to trick or treat with us and Grammy and Pap Pap came up for the day as well! We had an amazing time. I often remark to Ben that nothing is cuter than kids trick or treating. How did I get so blessed? Here is a picture of my Optimus Prime, Ladybug and Captain America! Love these three.
