The Eternal Move

I am very glad I got to spend Shelley's last day with her even though it was packing and cleaning. I could not think of a better way to spend the time with such an amazing friend. It kind of reminded me of everything we used to do. I cannot wait to see her and the rest of the clan in August in New Orleans!


The boys are ready to load the truck!


Road Trip!

All in all the move went without major issues. The kids enjoyed their last evening together. Pizza, Batman, XBOX and staying up all night was a great way to end the night. Unfortunately, my camera broke so I don't have pics of all the fun but we will make sure to take pics with the new camera when we arrive in New Orleans! Hurry up August!

Great Wolf Lodge

Since our camping trip was cancelled, we decided to take the kids to Great Wolf Lodge in Williamsburg, VA. We only stayed one night but that is really enough...from the adult perspective anyway.



RUN....enough said


Aidan, Kenzie, Nicholas and Ryan ready to ride the slides!


"Why can't I grab this?"



'Kid Kampin' at the Lodge...they never slept...





...but when we got in the car it was a different story.

Long Lost Kate!

Thanks to Facebook, I was able to find my long lost best friend from many years ago. Our families got together this weekend for a great reunion!


Kate and her hubby Kurt.



Ryan and Christian (Kate's son) ready to eat!

MS Walk 2009

What a beautiful day for the MS Walk! We started at the Carroll County Farm Museum and walked through downtown Westminster then back to the Farm Museum. The kids has a great time.


Nicholas waiting for the walk to begin.


Dan, Nicholas and Ryan during the walk.


Me, Nicholas and Ryan during the walk. The kids had a nice time.


We made it! Nicholas and Ryan loved their medals!

We went out to lunch after the event and got some cute pics of the kids.

Happy 1st Birthday Ryan!

Ryan is now a year old! Time goes by very quickly. He enjoyed having all the kids over for cupcakes. Since Ryan is teething, he did not seem too interested in eating the cupcake. He was actually the cleanest of the bunch - shocking!


Kenzie, Alexis, Evan and Nicholas - post cupcake.


Baby Shea partying it up!


Skylar having fun!


Evan and his chocolate gotee!


They wrapper is always better than the present!


Everyone was more than willing to help Ryan open his gifts!

Thanks to everyone who helped us celebrate this big day!

The Batcave!

Batman Begins (his day that is...who knew they still made under-roos?)

Catwoman in 'Side Plank'! GO CATWOMAN!!

Is Batman in a trance?

Holy Costume Batman!! (said Robin...not pictured) You and Catwoman look ready for action!

Batman(never) Ends...this phase is lasting longer than most. I'm glad the kids are having alot of fun with this!

Best Friends!

Batman Begins (again)!
Funny how the costumes were not even planned!

Nicholas and Evan chumming it up! The move to New Orlean's is right around the corner - we will really miss our friends! We are so thankful for blogs and programs like Skype so we can still keep in touch and see one another.

Happy 12th Birthday Kenzie!!

I cannot believe Kenzie is 12 years old!! Time goes by so fast! We went to her favorite restaurant for lunch - a new birthday tradition!



A very happy Nicholas and Kenzie!

Villa Bertolli

I am very used to Dan spending hours in the kitchen whipping up extravagant meals for the family but I am glad that tonight he decided to make something easy. Who doesn't like less dishes and more time to relax? Bertolli is still italian, right?

Bamboo-zled

Ryan is recovering tonight from his first shiner. He was bamboo-zled by his brother, Nicholas, during an attempt to retrieve a quarter from under the entertainment center. The 3 ft. piece of bamboo is now resting in the corner (having a time out), the quarter is collecting dust underneath the TV and Ryan is asleep in his crib. Just another exciting day in the Indelicato house!

Some great pictures of some great kids! (Yes, I am talking about my kids - LOL)

Nicholas looks surprised!


Ryan looks so warm in his hat and mittens!


Kenzie is growing up so fast!

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

Darth Vader (Nicholas) and Anakin Skywalker (Evan, Nicholas' best friend) striking a lightsaber pose with Princess Lea (Kenzie) and baby EWOK (Ryan).


The Darth Malt Mustache


May the fork be with you!

The Cherrios of Fire

The race was on this morning between Nicholas and Ryan. Nicholas racing to pick up the fallen Cheerios and Ryan racing to eat as many as he can.


AND the winner is.....
