Day of Nothing!
After yesterday's very busy day, today we did almost nothing! We stayed in PJs all day, read books, watched movies and just played inside the house. It felt really good to have nothing we HAD to do!

Day in NYC
My Mom and I took Trey, Bella and Evan to New York City today! It was a lot of fun!
After missing our train due to traffic, and poor planning on our part (stopping at Dunkin Donuts on the way to the train station), we had to take a later train that was not an express train. Thus, we ended up getting to NYC a bit later then we expected!
First, we walked to Build A Bear (Bella's pick), where each of the kids got an animal, with accessories, of course! Both Trey and Bella chose a "Hot Dog" Dog! Bella dressed hers in a robe and slippers, while Trey chose a soccer outfit.
Next up was lunch at a pizza place with gelato for dessert. Since it was already so late, we didn't have time to go to the other stores as we had hoped. We had to go directly to the theatre and we barely made it! We saw Mary Poppins, which was very good! It was a bit different from the movie version, which confused Bella a bit, but it was still a great show!
After the show, we took a taxi to FAO Swartz (Evan's pick), where Bella chose yet another stuffed animal and Trey chose a Light Saber Room Light. Trey especially, is very excited about his room light, and has even agreed that we can now leave the hallway light off at night!
Then it was time to go to the store that Trey chose - the Lego Store! The boys each chose something there!
We had dinner at the train station while waiting for our train since the first one was cancelled. It was a long day, and we didn't get home until 10:45 pm, but we had a lot of fun! We can't wait to do it again next year!

Ice Cream Party
The Kopecki family very generously invited the entire KB class over for an ice cream party! Only a few families could make it, but it was great to see all of the kids together again!
After the ice cream party, Bella had a skating lesson, and we slept over at Grandmom's house to save time in the morning before going to NYC!

Mr. Popper's Penguins
After church today, the kids asked if we could go to the movies, so the 4 of us and Grandmom all went to see Mr. Poppers Penguins! It was a really cute movie!
After that, Aunt Kim, Jon and Evan came over for dinner, and Evan stayed the night!

Belt Loop Bonanza
Trey went to his first Cub Scout Day Camp today.....the Belt Loop Bonanza! He had a great deal of fun and earned four belt loops - Soccer, Basketball, Fishing and Biking!
In the afternoon, we spent a few hours swimming at the pool and Mommy got sun-burned!

Phillies Game
Today was a very crazy day! Daddy took Trey to his golf lesson this morning, while Mommy and Bella ran errands. Then Mommy took Bella to Hayley's birthday party at Ariels Gymnastics Center.
Then we rushed home and off once again to the Phillies Game! It was very exciting because we got to sit behind home plate, and had dinner with a private view of the Phillies Batting Cages! The kids had a blast!
