Tooling about the Old Port after the Barenaked Ladies/Violent Femmes show at the Pier.

Pool Party at Cousin Jimmy's!



Pre-Color Run with my running buddies (it was soooo rainy that day-- we were soaked)


Post-Color Run


JULY

4th of July in the backyard
Lola-- enjoying a summer evening at the Brown School playground

Oscar, the frog whisperer (at camp in Vermont)

Don't let the boat coat fool you-- she's a true water dog. (ha!)


Roasting marshmallows with the Gradys in Vermont

End of another summer week at the awesome Vermont cabin


Vermexican with my guys at the taco stand!

Ozzie's bday

Teenager!!

This is how you rock a family session of Hip Hop Abs in the living room.



AUGUST



Jammin' down 16th Street with Owen (in Denver)

Drinking Shirley Temples at cousin Nick's August wedding with Owen (How cute is my date, btw!?)

Trying on hats at Overland Sheepskin Co. in Denver. This was Owen's fave.

I LOVED this hat! (But not for $359. Youch.)

Oh, yes, we did! My most favorite restaurant on earth-- Casa Bonita in Denver.

Owen-- riding the light rail through Denver like a boss city dude

Walking over the Casco Bay Bridge to Portland for dinner at Rivalries the night Owen and I got home from Colorado

Owen rockin' the 'stache at Eli and Sadie's 12th bday party in August

My 4-1/2mile run with Owen to/from Bug Light... He talked me into it.

Dropping Oscar off for a week of summer camp! This is his happy place. :)

Owen's room: BEFORE

Owen's room: AFTER (he picked the paint.)

With my guy at Fenway Park xoxo
Chillin' at Fenway... This was the first time for both Owen and Rocco! (But Oscar has been before)

They WON! (wait, what??)


Some of the haul from this year's garden

We have cukes coming out our ears

For his 9th bday, Rocco requested breakfast in bed.  (I thought that was supposed to be reserved for moms on Mothers' Day!??)

Mill Creek Park for Rocco's bday (He always asks for corn dogs in Mill Creek Park for his bday dinner.)

9 years old... I am not ready for double digits next year. *sigh*

Crescent Beach with Eli and Sadie-- last hurrah before school starts next week!

Hanging with my homegirl at the SeaDogs game (Bark in the Park night!) She got to walk around the field at the beginning of the game. She LOVED it. 

Dinner at Elsmere on Labor Day weekend. Oscar was practicing his "emo" look. He has the bangs down, but thankfully he is forgetting that the emo look does not include a nice smile. (PHEW)

17th Wedding Anniversary! Skip and I walked over the bridge to Portland for a mini pub crawl...

1st Stop: Central Provisions

2nd stop: MAPS. This cake was TO DIE FOR. Soooo good. (And only $4) The wine was pretty good, too, plus we had a blast chatting with others at the bar and playing 45s in the jukebox.

On the crawl back home...  Skip bought me this sweet cap for $1.95-- I love it!

No. I'm serious. DO. NOT. GO.
