Michael and I got our hair cut today Wed 10-25. They gave Michael a lollipop so he wouldn't cry - but since that was his first lollipop he didn't know what do to with it - so Mom had some of it...


Grandma gives Michael some words of wisdom before going home. We had a GREAT visit - lots of fun!!! Thanks for coming to visit!!! Can't wait to see you again! Very sad to see you go...


We decided to do a little practicing - we are now ready to go trick or treating!!!

Thanks Grandma - we all had a wonderful visit!!!!



All the children were great with Michael - helping him since he was the youngest....



We had fun looking at the animals. We also had a snack there - yum. I think the children all liked the playground most of all!!!



We had a fun day at Turtle Back Zoo - Kathy met us there with her sons - Matt and David, Holly joined us with Louis and Jillian. We had lots of fun!!!




We did some visiting - had to say Hi to Uncle Bill and Aunt Irma, and Uncle Henry too.


All this fun and excitement - sometimes you just need to veg out a little bit...catch up on Noggin....relax!!



It was such a beautiful day - we met Linda and Denise at the beach. We had a great day - Michael LOVED playing in the sand. Seems like October is the perfect time for
us to hit the beach - not too much sun for Michael. There were lots of people on the beach enjoying the last of the beach days!! Pizza was yummy too!!!



See everyone at the parade next year!!





The parade is over! Back in Bayonne having some food and drink!! Thanks to everyone for a wonderful day!!!!

Michael thinking that would be a nice design for the church back home!!



Father Robert chatting with the folks from St Pat's

I think someone wanted to run into Lord and Taylor for just a few minutes of shopping...

This was Michael's first trip into NYC - so we pointed out some of the main attractions - here is a little Statue of Liberty in the background - you don't see that everywhere...
Cool mirror!!!


Uncle Frank came into the City to watch us march...



The smell of hot dogs and pretzels made Michael a little hungry...when his toys were not enough he thought he would try his bow tie...



You wouldn't believe how much standing around we actually did during the parade - they stop the parade to let traffic go by...and everyone stops at St. Patrick's...it was a slow walk - so there was plenty of time to snap just a few more pictures!!



And finally we are off - following our Grand Marshall Father Robert...waving to all the people who are out and about in NY - we walked down 5th Avenue from 28th to 53rd St



Some people are resting up for the big walk...some people can't stop moving they are so ready to walk!!!!
Or maybe Ken is thinking of how he can get a pair of those cool red and white striped pants....




While we are waiting it is a great time to pose for pictures!!!



Someone was NOT in the mood to wear a hat - any hat...but he did like the stick!!



As we wait for our turn to march ... the excitement builds...


Now everyone will orderly get on the buses to go to NYC!!!


Look at all those handsome Polish men!!!


Out came the sun - and so out came the sunglasses....


Now this is a more official family picture - notice the sashes...Everyone is so happy that the rain stopped!!!!


Someone was having lots of fun running around - good thing Father Robert makes sure they keep the floors are spotless!!!


Picture of me and my Godchild Thomas


Here is most of the group - ready to march!
