Halloween!

I know, I know, long time no see, and I promise a longer update post soon. But in the meantime… Happy Halloween! (Liam and Kieran went trick-or-treating tonight with two friends.)   At Liam’s school last week, the 5th Graders came over to help the 1st Graders carve their very own jack-o-lanterns. Here is Liam [...]

A funny thing happened to Liam over the last three weeks. One day he was in summer camp… …petting the lion cub… …playing with Galapagos tortoises… …and then, the next week, he was at Work Day at his school, helping set up the classroom and picking out a desk… …and finally came the first day [...]

Meet Willie

He’s our new pet here at The Menagerie House. Obviously he is a guinea pig, and he’s eighteen months old. Some clients of our vet needed to rehome this gentle little creature, and so our vet gave them our name as being an animal-friendly family.

Or as Grandma calls it, “The PROJECT”! It was a lot of hard work, but it was worth it. Even in the heat wave of the last few days the boys have been out swinging every day. Here we have Liam swinging away and pretending to be an Army helicopter pilot while Lieutenant Kieran mans [...]

We had a fabulous day today – it was Liam’s last day of Kindergarten, and so his class had a festival day complete with a puppet show performed by the children. Today is also my birthday, and I had a wonderful birthday lunch with Kevin and the boys and friends from Liam’s school, and then [...]

It was a fun weekend here at the Menagerie House. Kevin’s birthday was on Thursday, so after school the boys and I did a quick shopping trip to pick out their presents for Daddy. Liam decided to get Kevin a new Yankees cap (his old one, a favorite, was lost a couple of months ago), [...]

Kieran has reached the age where he wants to help with household chores. Never one to turn down offers of assistance, I let him rinse dishes, take things out of the dishwasher, squirt soap, whatever he can do, really. Kevin does the same, and since he does the bulk of the laundry in our house, [...]

(I started this post last Saturday night, but only now have found the time to finish it. Enjoy!) The big event was this afternoon, and we had a good time. During the last couple of weeks Kieran has had us a bit confused by saying he only wants Daddy, Mommy, Liam, and Casey at his [...]
