A Big Hello

Gabriel sends a big hello out to everyone!

Such A Cutie!

Gabriel went to his first baseball game this weekend.That's him and his dad with the mascot. After a little nap he watched the fireworks. Amanda said he loved them. I think he looks more like Amanda every day, maybe that's just me :-)They will be here August 19th should I start a count down yet?! I can't wait!

On The Hill

Last week we did the Federal Hill Stroll. Federal Hill (also known as The Hill) is a section of Providence that was primarily Italian. This was the area that most immigrants came to. My grandfather had a flower shop here for 50 years. They have some of the best restaurants and we were able to sample food from quite a few of them. The Stroll is just that. We "strolled" the neighborhood and ate along the way. Mexican, Italian (or course) Chinese, Indian, Sushi, pasteries and even ice cream. It was fun and a different thing to do. Of course we ate to much but walking from place to place helped a little. Paul even found a new bike as we were walking off some of the food. It was built by Paulie Jr. from Orange County Choppers (whoop-dee-do in my opinion!)

My Gardens

My favorite way to spend my free time is to work in my yard. I thought I would share some of my gardens with everyone. I hope you enjoy them.

New Pics of Gabriel

I can't believe Gabriel is already 10 weeks old! He changes so much from one day to the next. Sure wish he was here :-(

On The Move Again

Murray Movers at your service. Here we go again. This time were moving Rayna and Clint.Well the first thing I have to say is that I NEVER want to move. I can't imagine packing up everything in this house since we've been here for 28 years! They've moved into a cute place in Johnston with a great yard so I'll probably help her plant some gardens. Goodbye to Cranston!

Here's the new place. It's one street over from where I lived as a teenager and where I met Paulie :-)
