Uncle Mark(y) Returns
















Kara shows Uncle Mark her color wonder letters
















Gabe tries on Mark's sweatshirt. UM looks a little concerned that he may not get it back....
















Hanging out.........
















I think Dinana was happy to see her sonny boy
















Hmmmmm. Very silly picture here.















You can't say goodbye without a "Bye" cake - right?















DD shows off her colors and makes sure her teeth are still in tact....

My big brother Mark made an appearance in the D this week. The kids enjoyed some real quality time with their uncle and were sad to see him go. We enjoyed some great food, great stories and even had time to get over to Dave & Busters. You don't realize how much you miss someone until you get to see them. We already miss you and hope you don't wait too long before coming back. Who knows? We may even make an appearance in the NYC.

Hail To The Victors!!

LET'S GO BLUE!!!!
Gabe shows off the game tickets

The M-Men pre-game huddle gets them and the crowd fired up
Gabriel's first game in the "Big House" is about to begin
Gabe and Giorgio cheesin before kickoff

Gio can hardly contain his excitement


First half almost complete and a pizza snack was necessary

Gabriel got to go to his first of many games at Michigan Stadium. We were joined by CC and Giorgio. Michigan opened their season against Vanderbilt. The game started fast with a Michigan TD and Field Goal, but the pesky visitors wouldn't go quietly. It wasn't until the fourth quarter where the boys in blue put the game out of reach with a 27-7 victory. I think Gabe had a good time. We got home and he put on the rest of his uniform (including helmet) and started playing his own game of football and continued to sing the Michigan fight song.
