Summer is here and in full swing!! Another crazy month (that we have been planning forever) is behind us now!! Only a few more days before we head to Michigan for vacation...we cant wait!!
**Please note, Renee did not abandon our family! - she is only in one picture below! She was not able to make the trip to MA - she was invited to play with 17 year olds in a College Showcase Soccer Tournament! This was a big deal for her (according to me :) We had to create a bio for her to go in a book for college coaches to look at. Even though they can't talk to her until the end of next season, they can still have an eye on her!! So exciting. Her dad said she played really, really well!! (hes not biased either ;)**
Happy Fourth of July - The family at the Dale City Parade!! 
Leah waving her flag! 
Jake with his hands full 
Mama and her princess 
Matthew taking off 
Mac G....looks like he has found a cozy spot on a pillow 
This is what happens when you try to clear the table and load the dishwasher with a one year old around...he likes to help! 
Hes Crazy!!! 
Best Birthday Surprise!!! Thank you Robitaille's for this very unexpected double jogger stroller!! Alycia...you rock!! Jake - I apologize for whinning and begging you to pack our double stroller to take with us on our trip....just so we could bring back TWO strollers from MA! (Jake knew about the gift and asked that we not bring our stroller all the way up there...but I insisted...next time I will know better ;) We came up to MA for Jake's High School Reunion, we had a wonderful time - Jake enjoyed seeing old friends that he had not seen in a while. We also celebrated Jasmine's birthday. 
First trip to the park - Matthew is asleep! 
Out on our first walk with the dog and the kids...Mac G could not make it...good thing this stroller comes with a pug compartment!! 
Someone should have warned Jasmine - just because she can get in the baby toys at the park...doesnt mean she could get out. It took a few of us to remove her from this thing! (I wish I had a picture!!) 
The beautiful Adrianna!! Shes sleepy!! 
Chris and Matthew playing with the soccer ball - Matthew is showing his Godfather a few moves ;)
Matthew, Carson and Adrianna - they are growing so fast!! All will be a year old by the end of summer!! 
The big sisters! Leah and Kennedy!
Happy 14th birthday Jasmine!!
...and Leah has her fingers in it! 
Love this picture of them!! 
Cousins! 
Matthew out like a light on Pepere! 
These are uploaded backwards! Jasmine had a soccer tournament at Hershey Park. We took a long weekend, went to the tournament and spent Sunday night and Monday at the Park. We had a blast!! Here is Matthew in a huge pile of pillows at Chocolate World.

Coach Tom and Jasmine 
I bought cupcakes to celebrate all of the summer birthdays. We rented a party room at the hotel to have a team dinner - Richard put together a wonderful slideshow of all the pictures from the season! Jasmine will miss her team...she will be playing with Renee's team in the Fall! 
At our hotel in Hershey, the indoor pool was right outside our sliding glass door - the kids had a blast!! 
Jasmine's 8th grade graduation - Jasmine received an award for being active in the school and for maintaining a grade point average over 3.0 over her three years in middle school. 
Congrats Jaz! Im so proud of you!!
Cashin' In! 
Happy Father's Day Dad!! Jake got to spend his Father's Day at Hershey Park (His horrible wife may have forgotten it was Father's Day until we were at breakfast that morning...I owe him BIG TIME!!!) Hopefully, he will forgive me after he is finished with the massage we got for him!! I love you Jake...your the best husband/father anyone could ask for!!
Play time in the backyard!
I love this little guy! 
This is Matthew's new thing - he stands on the rocking chair, hold onto the back and rocks himself while standing up - hes crazy! 
...and his sister is silly - Hey Leah, Mr. Potato Head wants his glasses back! 
Johnna, Mona and I - Balfour Beatty Golf Outing 2011 (these events are so much more fun when your not pregnant!!)
