I found these at my parents house today.

She has found the wooden spoon.

She is so cute. I think zoey must be jealous of all the attention.

Got this great pic of Mom and Daughter holding the cousin's jewel bouquette.

We all went out to dinner last night. They looked so happy together.

This is my grandmother's father. Now I know where that bald patch in the middle of my head comes from. Nonna also said he died of terrible stomach problems. I should probably find out more about him.

Not sure how this is fair but (e:Mike) moves out from the parents' house and I end up having to paint his old room.

My dad helped out a bunch although we had differing views on what constitutes complete. Strangely, I was the more picky one which makes me question if I am more of a pain in the butt then my father.

My mom chose bright yellow to paint over the blue. It was hard to make the blue not shine through. I know we could have primed but the paint didn't call for that.

This is the best picture. (E:Mike) said, "look how small the sky way is from down here, I can high five it." ands he did just that.

We went to (e:Matthew)'s cousin's wedding at the Tonawanda Castle. The location was amazing. I really liked the layout, the food, the decor. Congratulations!

I was going through a lot of the family documents I scanned while Nonna was alive.

I found this one document that maps a hundred years of Nonna's lineage issued back in 1941. It goes back even further though.

At the top it says, "Dai Registri Parrocchiali esistenti in questo Archivio, risulta la seguente discendenza ultracentenaria della famiglia di agricoltori." Which according to google means, "the parish registers exist in this archive is the following hundred years, descendants of the family of farmers"

Its neat to find out their names.
