Spring 2011

Cousins on Easter Morning



The traditional easter egg dye with Libby

Here comes Libby and I to get those easter eggs (by force if need be)


Rubber ducky, you're the one, who says you are only for bathtub use?





Utopia



Good to have pals in the neighborhood



Yeah that's right, this is my trike



Ring doggy bell, repeat, repeat, repeat ......

Unfortunately it broke for some unknown mysterious reason



The key to American happiness is just 5,000 calories away



Check out my bowling shoes, here come the ladies



My Camilio Villegas impression at the lanes

Florida Fun

We headed to Orlando for a week of fun in the sun with Grammy and Ernie.

At BWI checking out the planes.Like father...Like son. We landed early and Holden slept most of the way - perfect!Daddy at Big Kahunas. Playground time at our resort.

Disney World!Grammy and Holden brave the crowds down Main Street.

Patiently waiting in line.
Still waiting...almost there.
Riding the tea cups.
Grammy & Ernie sailing by on Peter Pan's Flight.

Dumbo with Daddy filming in the background.

It's a Small World - Ernie proving you're never too old for a trip to Disney.

Taking it all in.

Lake Eola in downtown Orlando.

Hanging with the local kids at the Lake Eola playground.
Fishing for prizes at the street festival. He picked a bright green racecar...no surprise there.

I wear my sunglasses at night, as I put on my jammies and go night-night.

What's a trip to Florida without a round of putt-putt?

Daddy showing him how it's done.

And Holden showing us how a 2 year old does it.

Splashing around.

Tired little guy after a very fun week.

After all those years as a flight attendant, I finally got someone to read the safety information card.Good-bye vacation, you will be missed!
