Goodbye Yankee Stadium...



Wayne and Rebecca made it to Yankee Stadium for the first time just before it closed. We got high fived and God Bless You for taking the baby to the game. Becks wore her pink Yankees outfit that Auntie Sarah gave her. I hope I didn't offend Wayne by telling everyone around us when Derek Jeter came up to bat that he was supposed to be Rebecca's daddy:)

Boston and Maine


We had such a great visit with the girls in Boston and in Maine. Thanks to the Revettes for hosting us all weekend, and for Thursday nights after work drinks, mostly because it was the first time Lucie and Becks got to meet not on a computer, but also because Wayne and I desperately needed a Blue Moon after being lost in Boston for 1 and a half hours!
Thanks Alyce for having us up to Portland, loved the baby chat, comparing scars and sharing the fact that we can't sing nursery rhymes properly thanks to good old Phi Sig! We were all knackered on Saturday, but had so much fun with Nick, Auntie Kelley and the coolest kid on the block, Colton. It was hilarious to hear him call me Chucky!

Last thanks to Zids and Doug for Pizza night, we had a great time but I'm still thinking that cupcakes are meant to be eaten stump first, although the frosting sandwich is a good idea!

Ithaca



We took a quick trip to Ithaca for the day and had the most amazing weather. We went to Ithaca Falls (where my brother Pete proposed to Mary) and Taughannock Falls (30ft taller than Niagra Falls) just after Labor day so it was nice and quiet.

Pennsylvania Schuchmans


Labor Day consisted of an old car show, Pennsylvania Dutch food, Root Beer floats and fulfilling Wayne's lifelong dream of hiking the Appalachian trail (ok, so hike is stretching it, but you get the idea).
