Busy Weekend - part 2

My sister in law Jenny is getting married on August 29th. This past Sunday we had her bridal shower. After a bit of a scare with the weather, it turned out beautiful and we were able to have it outside. It was a great time!

Busy Weekend - part 1

This past weekend the "Hooper" girls got together for the annual girls weekend. The boys have a golf tournament every year so a few years ago, my Mom started hosting the ladies. It has really turned into more of a ladies/kids weekend but it is a good time. It was a really busy weekend for me but Gus and I were able to head up and enjoy ourselves and he got to meet "Nana" Betty for the first time. Betty was my Nana's best friend since they were 9, so she is part of the family! It was great having her meet Gwen & Gus!

Happy 4th!

Happy 4th of July!! We started the day with a visit to Memere & Pepere's where Adam and Gus had matching t-shirts!

We then headed up to my Mom's to celebrate the 4th! We weather was weird that day with a couple of short rain showers, but we still managed to get some swimming and fishing in and had a great day! All the kids had matching shirts!

Gray Animal Farm

Today, the rain finally stopped!! We decided to take advantage of that and spend the day at the Gray Animal Farm (Now called the Maine Wildlife Park). It is a rehabilitation and refuge park in Gray, Maine. They have deer, bears, moose, fisher cats and many other animals. It is perfect for kids, and we had a bunch in our group. We were joined by the Reynard, Revasz, Hooper and Lachapelle Families. We had a great day!



Feeding the deer...

We always find time to pose for a pic!

Pete's arch nemesis

Pete found out that they had grills, so we brought some charcoal and grilled some burgers and dogs and had a nice relaxing lunch!

It's the Gray Animal Farm, what do you expect!

Happy Birthday Gus!

Where does the time go? Three months ago today, I gave birth to my beautiful baby boy! Pete and I are so in love with him, I can already not imagine my life without him. He is such a happy baby, a great eater and a good sleeper. About three weeks ago he started sleeping through the night, making our nights A LOT easier! I am guessing he weighs over 15 pounds now, a big boy!! The poor guy will probably have an idenity crisis due to the fact that he has so many nicknames! I decided to have a little photo shoot this morning to capture him on his three month birthday!

Return of the Internet!

Yes, it is true!! My internet works again!! I finally got around to calling Time Warner and yesterday they sent someone over! Our cable wire was not working, so now we are back up and running. I can start posting more now! I mean look at this kid, he is so cute, who wouldn't want to see more of him!! Hahaha!

Falling asleep in Daddy's arms.....


When we bought our house it was considered "move in" condition. However I don't think that house had been updated since the 70's so we have slowly been redoing a lot of things. We painted everything! We replaced all the hardware on the cabinets and doors in the house. We added recess lighting to the kitchen and living room, replaced all the light fixtures in the house, knocked down a wall and lots of other things. We had done so much to the kitchen and always talked about replacing the faucet. A rainy Sunday gave Pete the chance to do it!

Our old faucet with a broken sprayer!

Thank god I have a handy husband, that can do all these projects!

Our new faucet!

Bela trying to get a little attention from Pete also!
