         <title>Ice Skating</title>
         <description><![CDATA[I got to go to Gabby's school today to help during center time.  Some children went to a small math group with a math teacher while another group went to reading group with Mrs. Bacchia.  The last group of students came to the art center where we made Chicka Chicka Boom Boom paintings.  The letters in their names were climbing up the coconut trees.  It was a really fun project.  I had a great time working with Gabby's class.  Next time is Dave's turn.  The girls are getting ready to go ice skating.  Do you think our skates will fit in this bag?  Thanks Grammy!

We didn't know how this skating trip was going to turn out, but it went really well.  Gabby ice skated once when she was three, but had to be held up the whole time.  We were so happy that she was able to skate by herself today.  Gillian....we had no expectations what-so-ever.  There was a three/four year old class, but she really wanted to skate.  We let her try and she was buzzing all over the place with her little bucket.  The teachers said that she did great and that she should stay.  The teachers think they can have her skating on her feet without the bucket in a couple weeks.  Thank God for helmets and good luck to those people.

         <title>Weekend With Grammy- Part III</title>
         <description><![CDATA[After church on Sunday, we went to Ellms Farm in Ballston Spa.  It is one of our favorite fall places to go.  They have the most beautiful farm with tons of great activities for kids and kids at heart.  The weather was a little chilly, but we had a great time....especially trying to solve the Maize Maze.  This years theme was outer space.  The corn maze included the planets...and sun.  To complete the maze, you had to find nine puzzle pieces located in mailboxes throughout the maze.  We were pretty successful on all but #4.  It was too hard for us....and lots of other people who were roaming around in circles like us.  In the end...we had to get help, but we completed the maze.  Here are lots of pictures from the farm.

         <title>Weekend with Grammy - Part II</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Because Gabby completed her 1000 Book Club, we let her choose somewhere fun to go to celebrate, and she chose Jeepers.  We were not surprised.  We made Grammy come along with us....and ride all the rides.  I tried to get pictures of Gabby going down the slides, but both me and my camera were too slow.

         <description><![CDATA[Grammy came to visit us this weekend.  We had so much fun...and we are so exhausted.  We started out early on Saturday with a big breakfast and some soccer.  It was really cold!

         <title>1000 Book Kid!</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Hooray for Gabby.  She finished her 1000th book last night.  We had a little book celebration party with popcorn as we read the final book...which happened to "Hang On Hopper".  This was so exciting because we have been enjoying these books since the middle of January 08.  Gabby got to fill in her home made chart (the final block was rainbow stripes).  Today we all went to school together to watch her receive her award from Mrs. Sogoian.  We had to drop off our last two red bags and complete our school chart.  Gabby looked like a little sunbeam receiving her trophy.  She decided to take her trophy to kindergarten this afternoon for show and tell.  We can't wait to hear all about it when she gets home.  Congratulations and great reading....Gab.

         <title>Scenes from the weekend</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Our neighbors, Barry and Carol, babysat for us on Saturday.  The girls always have a great time with them.  They brought Halloween headbands and other goodies, but Barry and Carol ended up wearing the headbands in this picture.  The girls also recieved a package in the mail from Aunt Mandy and Uncle Steve.  They loved the movie that Aunt Mandy sent, and we took this picture of them waving at the end of the show.  Thanks so much!

We had the Maddalone's over for a bbq after church today.  The girls all painted pumpkins, ate lots of food, and played outside.  It was a fun and fast weekend.

         <title>Bowman&apos;s Orchard</title>
         <description><![CDATA[We recently went to Bowman's orchard to pick apples and raspberries.  It was a lot of fun.  There was so much to do there.  The fresh apple cider and doughnuts were also delicious.  The girls didn't want to leave.  We came home and made a fresh apple-raspberry pie.

         <title>Gillian&apos;s first day at Tumbling Tykes</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Gillian was so excited today because she had her first day of school like Gabby.  Our girls have been going to Gymboree since they were very small.  When we moved to our new house, we were sad to find out that there are no Gymboree- Play and Music centers around.  We decided after a few recomendations to try out Tumbling Tykes.  It is a privately owned education program for smaller children.  I was pleasantly surprised by the whole program.  Of course, we will miss Gymboree (mostly because of Ms. Fran), but this program is going to be great.  We love Ms. Stacey (Gillian's teacher) already.  Gillian enjoyed the huge playroom full of fun things to climb.  Then she got to go into her separate classroom where she danced, used instruments, pom poms, hula hoops, little balls and big balls.  Of course there were bubbles like Gymboree. There was even a craft time.  The parents were kindly warned not to help the children with their little project.  I did have to help Gillian get the cap off the glue, but she did pretty well making her own face...using glue, and she even added a nose.  Her absolute favorite part of the day was bouncing on the exercise ball while singing "Humpty Dumpty".  You can imagine what happened when Humpty had a great fall.  All the kids laughed and wanted to do it again.

         <title>Thanks for the Barbies everyone...</title>
         <description><![CDATA[The girls in our house love to play with these Dolls.  I don't know how this happened.  We have not spent a dollar on anything like this....somehow they stock pile.  Eventually we end up with a picture like this.  Gabby and especially Gillian would like to say, "Thanks for the Barbies, people".
