ketchup...not just for hot dogs!

so i am trying to play "ketchup" and bring everyone up to speed on what's been going on with the d'angelo's the past few weeks since we've been "mia". i've posted two posts (is there a better way to say that?) below. aside from that, we've pretty much been up to nothing. i'm busy acting as "wedding coordinator" for my co-worker clarisa's wedding in june...creating, printing and assembling invites, bulletins, and guest cards...picking out flowers...etc. all the stuff i enjoyed doing for my wedding...but i don't have to pay for it!

john's been busy doing this...

he took his motorcycle permit test, followed by the state paid safety class to get his license and has been happily enjoying cruising around the past week. my boss has kindly lent one of his bikes to john to keep up his riding.

tony loved when dad surprised him the one night by pulling into the driveway on a "moker-cycle". he asked so nicely if he could just sit on it and was soooo excited when daddy said yes!!

tony started a new room at his "school" and will be moving again in september to pre-k...he is doing really well, and we are very proud of him!

work is keeping me really busy, but i am loving my new position and responsibilities and wouldn't trade it for anything...especially given the state of so many and their jobs right now. i am truly blessed!

we are gearing up for camping season. we have our first long weekend planned for memorial day weekend and will be staying in a site across from my sister and dave. it should be a good time. we have several other camping trips we are planning through the summer, although we are really looking forward to some fall camping!

we will be headed to deep creek lake again this august with john's family (i think there will be 14 of us going). his mom and stepdad have rented a huge house for us all and we'll be getting a pontoon boat again. tony is looking forward to tubing again this year as he's much bigger than he was 2 year ago when we were there and i don't think he'll be as scared!

stay tuned...i promise to be back on my game with blogging...we have lots of fun stuff in the works with the d'angelo family!!
