My first power boat ride! We really have lots of fun visiting "Aunt" Leanne's camp in Maine. There's so many things to do! And so many kids to do them with! It's one of my really, really favorite things!

Welcome, Zach! Blake, Mommy and I wish we could be there to see you in person, but wanted you to know how happy we are to have you in the family. Congratulations to Mama Cetta, Daddy Josh and your big brother, Tyler! We know they'll take good care of you. And your Zias Angie and Franca along with Nonna Anna and Uncle Jason will smother you with hugs and kisses. So will Grandma and Papa when they come to meet you next week. Hurry home!

Sometimes Papa asks me to look serious when he takes my picture. When I look at them all I can think is that underneath my picture it should say something like, "If you could send just $5.00 a day..." Am I crazy, or do you think that too when you look at it?

What? No ice in my drink? If I'd wanted it neat I'd have said so! What kind of establishment is this?

Pay attention, Blake. Even though we're fogged in, I can still teach you some of the basics of surfing. Repeat after me, "Gnarly, Dude!"
