It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt

Now that Mia is a little older and can get around more Luca thinks it is fun to have wrestling matches with her. It usually starts with both participants happy and enjoying it but it always ends with tears. I had fun watching them today and had to take some pictures.


He can dish it but he definately can't take it!

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Peter, Amanda, Matt, Jamie, Ben, Udine and I took Grandma out for her 79th Birthday. Jana volunteered to watch all the kids so we could make it work...all our schedules were hard to work around. Thanks Jana! We told her she could go anywhere to eat, Peter even tried mentioning a variety of different places, but when it came down to it, it's the same place every time...Sizzler. We always joke that we always go there and wish we could go somewhere else, but when she makes comments like "This was the best day of my life!" you realize it really isn't about where we want to go or what we want. She loves Sizzler and felt special for being taken there and that is really all that matters. Amanda made her one of her favorite cakes (wacky cake) and she was so thrilled when she saw that. We went back to their home afterwards to visit for a while. They were in good spirits and I think they really enjoyed themselves.
