I know we've had a good discussion about movie ratings, but I had to post a few pictures from our quick visit to NY last week. Mario had a conference in New Jersey, so the kids and I tagged along to spend some time with family in New York.
We first made a suprise visit with Grandmama and Grandpapa. I never tire hearing Grandmama's stories and the boys had a great time playing. I'm so happy they were able to play where Mario played as a child and hopefully they will have some memories like their dad had from his youth. It was hard to stop the fun to take pictures, and I hope I didn't overstay my welcome in doing so.

Then we stopped by Michael and Sarah's who generously hosted our very tired crew. As an added bonus, Luke was also visiting them at the same time. The kids had a great time scooting around inside the house and running in the front yard. I especially enjoyed watching Sheila and Michael Jr. play together. It was hard to pick only a few pictures of them. Michael really knows how to smile for a camera. This was definitely Sheila's favorite toy at their house.
Michael and Sheila shared so well, she even let him suck her hand. Of course, since Sheila likes eating her feet it wasn't a big deal for her.
It was so wonderful to see sweet Maria. She is growing so quickly! Maria was a very generous cousin and shared her toys so well. I am looking forward to returning the favor very soon!
