faux sailing

A storm started to come in. we didn't sail, but we had a nice chat over lunch.

It's hot out here!

The girls went to Fahnstock Beach today to try and cool off.
lots of laughter. salt and vinegar chips. and late night bike rides.
Turned out to be a great girls weekend.

Lifes better...

Life just seems better when you've had girl talk over breakfast and coffee!

Erin and I got breakfast this morning, we talked about life. work. dreams. goals. boys.

The picture says it all! ....our lives are pretty stinking great!

Lazy Sunday

A group of us spend the afternoon taking in the warm sun of spring.

boccie ball, naps under the blooming trees
good company, yummy food and drink

What a life!

Picnic in the park

Tommy and I have a picnic at the park today.

Sean and the boyees, planned to launch the sail boat for the first time. the girls hoped to see them sail. they didn't.

The sport of kayaking!

I went kayaking for the first time today.
Buddy and Katie and I had a blast.
It was quite the adventure;
we crossed the hudson river to Newburgh
it was dark when we crossed back to Beacon Harbor.
Here's a breakdown:
I thought I was going to die
It was my first time kayaking
first time on the hudson river
we caught a wake from a barge
we couldn't see 2in in front of us
I thought I was going to die

Mt. Beacon

Ah it's spring - I can't get outside enough.
