Italian Festival

The Italian Festival was in Ocean last week. We went all nights except the 4th night since Stu was working at the beer tent with his fire department. The kids had so much fun at it as always.

Night 1- We went with Wesley's friend Jack. Brandon went around with two of his friends that he ran into (Brandon J. and Nick).
Night 2- Wesley's friend, Olivia, and her mom and dad came with us. My friend/co-worker, Gina, was there too with her baby and boyfriend so they also walked around with us for awhile. We also saw fire department friends and Wesley's friend, Lucy and her brother.
Night 3- We went around with fire department friends. We have picked a night every Italian Festival to all go around together. These kids have such a good relationship with each other. There were fireworks on Friday night so we stayed for them.
Night 5- We went to use up our ride tickets. We went around with some of our fire department friends again who were also there.

Beach Fun

This summer we are sharing a cabana at Deal Casino with one of our friends and her daughter. We have been having fun going there and swimming in both the ocean and pool. A few weekends ago when we went Brandon had three friends there. He had so much fun hanging out with them for the day. Wesley finally realized that he likes the ocean.

Jets Green and White Practice Scrimmage

We went to the Jets practice scrimmage a few weeks ago at Rutgers. Papa Earle was able to get tickets for it. Before we were allowed into the stadium they had all kinds of fun things set up for the kids to do. Bounce houses, a video game truck, wheels to spin. We then got to go see the Jets practice and then watch the team scrimmage against each other.

Monmouth County Fair

A few weeks ago we went to the Monmouth County Fair with the Green's. The kids all had a fun time going on rides and seeing the other things the Monmouth County Fair had.
