Wiping away my kisses

This video is from the end of April...Lexie loves getting kisses from me and then wiping them away knowing she will be tickled mercilessly for having done so.

Easter Weekend. March 22nd - 23rd, 2008.

Had to get some pics in for the month of March. It had been a while since we had seen Mommom, so on Saturday we headed up to the Northeast with my mother and took Mommom out for an early dinner. Also added some pics from Easter Sunday including the nice family pic below.

On Saturday we headed up to the Northeast to take Mommom out to an early dinner.

Trip to New York City - February 16th - 17th, 2008.

For Valentine's Day I took Dana to NYC to see a musical and spend the night. A couple of pics from the trip.

Out to dinner on Saturday night

 

 

Upon our return home having seen so much of ground zero I searched for photographs on the interent to see just how close the hotel we stayed at (Millenium Hilton) was to the World Trade Center prior to 9/11. In this first pic you can see it just to the right of the twin towers.

 

Included this shot because you can see the buildings on the left in the two shots (I took) looking out towards the water

 

The first of four shots taken from our window on the 20th floor overlooking ground zero.

 

A few more shots from our room

Lunch with Mommom - February 2nd, 2008.

Just as we did when Poppop was still around, we continue to get up to the Northeast to see Mommom as much as possible.
