Delinquents

Hello Fam,

First here's a picture of me and my goddaughter Greta! She's such a cutie pie.

I have been very bad about posting and it's been a while! Last month Todd became middle aged (that's right he joined the Sean Purcell old man club) and turned 30. We had several celebrations. First his parents came up for a visit and we ate dinner at Elderberry Farm, which is a restaurant in Auburn we love! (Actually, this weekend for his birthday present from me, we went there for a class in growing herbs and veggies, cooking them, and then we got to eat them- it was great!)

Next we had a birthday dinner at our house with inlaws and mom and dad which was nice. Then for his big birthday weekend we went down to NYC to celebrate with all his friends. We had a great sushi dinner and then went out to a bar in the East Village. Saturday and Sunday the weather was awful, but we went to Lee's wedding in New Rochelle. It was funny because all the guys had the guido haircut like the boys from Growing Up Gotti (you've probably never seen it, but it's all this gel and your hair sticking up straight all over, even in the back)

Other than that weekend I think we've been our usual boring selves. Last weekend we starting renovating our downstairs bathroom, it's a disaster now. And Todd is the liturgist of the month at church, his first time doing it! He did a good job on Sunday.

Pixie is still great, but a destructor. She can now go up and down the stairs, we let her run around unleashed in the backyard, the little girls in the neighborhood always come over and ring our doorbell to see if Pixie can come out to play. We have caved in and let her sleep in our bed at night. She snores like a fat old man! But we love her anyways.

Oh, and Todd's band has their first gig this Friday night! They are playing at a bar in downtown Syracuse. I'll take pictures of my little rock star!

Here's a picture of Todd and Pix watching baseball together.

Can't wait to see you all next month!
