I don’t love The Yankees. My heart was ripped out a couple of week ago. I’m not referring to the ER post. I’m referring to game 4 of the NLCS. We (The Dodgers) were so close. I’ve been wanting to do a baseball post since April. We even did this Baseball Promo (shown above) piece [...]

Trick Or Treat

It’s time to put the last minute details on the Halloween costumes. Ollie and Simon are set since they wore their costumes to school on Friday. Actually, Ollie has been sleeping in his skeleton outfit for the past 2 days. Houston we have a problem. It seems Theo can’t get out of his robot outfit [...]

Miss Beth’s Hedgerow is Simon’s pre- school. Hedgerow was Ollie’s, Theo’s and Henry’s pre-school. Miss Beth was also Sam’s nursery school teacher when he went to Westside Waldorf School. So much for the background, here’s some photo from this years Halloween party.
Fun abounded with great costumes, songs, stories and yummy food. I’ll gladly take pictures [...]
Holiday Horrors

With ocean water temperatures hovering around 70 degrees, roses still in full bloom and baby leopard sharks circling the line up at Bay Street, we are fully emerged into the HOLIDAYS! Yes, the holidays, less daylight, flu strains swirling, projectile nose blowing and the likes. It seems like yesterday I was in a hammock under [...]

After many weeks of wiggling, Oliver Moss Catanzaro has lost his first tooth! The first grade peer pressure was extremely tough. Eddie apparently has lost 18 teeth and Charlie Ahearn lost 10 teeth while slipping in the bathtub. Neither of these stories have been substantiated.
The tooth came out Sunday evening before bed when Ollie threw [...]

No, don’t worry. We didn’t forget Simon anywhere. It’s the 8th of September. School has started for everyone except for Sam who starts in October. Swim, tennis, piano, cello lessons are in full swing. Work is picking up. We are vacuuming, mopping the floors, washing our bedding and towels daily as a preventive measure. Kauai [...]

Sequoia Chapter 1- Good To Be Home
Posted in Celebrations, tagged camping, moss tents, sequoia on 1 June,2009 | Leave a Comment »
This was our 8th year returning to Sequoia National Monument to celebrate Sam’s birthday on Memorial Day weekend. We had wonderful weather and a great vibe permeated the campsite. Some new faces and some missed no shows reflected how life goes on it’s journey and we are but passengers.
One way of measuring growing up is [...]
Sequoia Chapter 2 Goes Soft Star
Posted in Celebrations, The Great Outdoor, tagged camping, sequoia, Soft star Shoes on 31 May,2009 | Leave a Comment »
If you look closely at the footwear of many of our campers this year you will notice that they are wearing Soft Star Shoes. No coincidence here. When the good folks (elves as they are known) heard about our camping trip they set our entire crew up with custom made moccasins and sandals in exchange [...]
