A room with a view

A friend of ours invited us out to Connecticut for a couple days to stay at his parent's lovely home. We ate amazing food, soaked in the pool, and piddled around on Lake Candlewood.  It felt like a private getaway at our own B&B. We had our own space in the poolhouse, were cooked delicous meals and chauffeured around this beautiful area an hour north of NYC. We had an amazing time!
My favorite part was eating outside every night in the perfect weather, Jacob liked getting in the hot tub and pool and Jagger got to ride on a boat, in a convertible and add two more states to his destinations of travel. (Jag and I were lucky enough to stay an extra night in Brooklyn with friends.)

Independence weekend

We had an entire weekend together as a family this holiday. Saturday we spent the day enjoying music and a picnic in Millennium Park, playing in the Crown Fountain, and shopping...

And today we spent the day relaxing, taking a lazy stroll along the boulevard in the heat, enjoying Miko's Italian ice, and now we are packing up to head to Florida (well Jagger and I--daddy will join us in 4 days) to spend sometime with the whole Smith clan for the next 10 days! 

Ahhh, summertime!

Happy Birthday Jagger Saint!!

Our baby is ONE! 

There were cupcakes and ice cream, singing cards, sunshine, dancing, great gifts (books, legos, magna doodle, tool set, clothes and more!) and mostly, lots of laughter.  A perfect end to a perfect year!







Jagger is ONE!

We spent the first half of the day downtown...
