Last Monday, we celebrated Zachary’s Gotcha Day. It’s been 7 years since that little boy rocked our world. That first night was a bundle of excitement and nerves. As we walked him around the hotel, he switched between tears and intense observation. You could almost read his soul with those purposeful eyes, who are these …
So it’s been years since I last went to the Bratwurst Festival Parade. In a sense, not much has changed since that time. We watched the local high school bands and cheerleaders…including mommy’s favorite blue and gray team Zachary loved the fire trucks, while everyone else was interested in his Korean squat. How do they …
Yesterday, we did a three on three basketball tourney to raise scholarship money for local kids. It’s been months of planning. And we stressed a bit with the amount of teams, but to be honest it turned out perfectly for a first time event. There were girls playing boys, a kid from MN that dropped …
Talk about a beautiful wedding. The weather was perfect. Location was unreal. Ceremony was touching. Reception was fun. It really was the perfect wedding. And the best, watching the happy couple.

Zachary officially turned 8. In many ways, it’s hard to imagine that we are here. When did my baby face toddler become a bigger kid. He’s halfway up my chest, eats like a horse, does things for himself now. In a word, he’s a lot more self sufficient I love how our relationship has matured …
Im not going to lie, last week was busy. My parents came in town for Zachary and Grandma’s birthday. So the house was alive with action, which I love. Zachary had several playoff games which we all attended. The weather was super hot but we pushed on to the Phillies game and Pat’s…where we encounter …
