Our visit to the new Yankee Stadium :-)

My last visit to the old Yankee Stadium was in 2004 so you can imagine my excitement when I finally went to a game at the new stadium yesterday. It is beautiful and so opened!! We were seated behind 1st base on the second level. Here is what we saw.





The one and only!


My boys:


Some pics I as we were leaving....we lost the game against the Baltimore Orioles :-(





A crowd of Yankee fans as the leave


"Let's go Yankees Let's go!!" Until next time....

Is Summer over already?? (Pic Heavy)

Just when I thought that the Summer would hang on for a little while longer, poof, it's gone!! One week we're having hot, humid 95 degree whether and the next we get cool, breezy nights. Don't get me wrong, I would much rather sleep comfortably in cool breezy weather than waking up having to peel my face off my pillow because I am drenched in sweat. Yes, I do have an air conditioner people but times are hard and Con Edison is beating people up with the high electric bills so I try to use my handy fan when need be. Ok, enough of my ranting...lol. I obviously felt the need to get that off my chest. Must be because I only hit the beach 2 times this summer and I am an absolute Sun Whore. I love tanning despite the fact that my skin will probably wrinkle before my time but hey, who is paying attention to my wrinkles anyway....LMAO! Ok, Ok. I promise, I will stop.

Over the weekend,I had the pleasure of attending two events. On Saturday I went to my friend's baby shower. I was worried because Tropical Storm Danny was supposed to hit NYC hard on Saturday but to my surprise after a cloudy morning, the sun peaked through and made a dreary day beautiful! There were a lot of people there and the DJ totally rocked the party out. I had "Lucy" with me so here a few pics of that day.





I loved the Centerpieces!

Just a few of the guests at our table, Casey and Hildegard

This was the only time I got Aiden and Tyler to sit still...Aiden is saying "cheese" while clenching his teeth..lol.


ok, just one more of Aiden...he is such a cutie


And finally the lovely mommy to be Edawn and her husband Freddie....this was the only one shot that actually made it, ignore all the elbowing :-) You did an amazing job planning the shower Freddie!


On Sunday, we headed over to a BBQ that our dear friends Janessa and Greg were having at the Ross Dock Picnic area underneath the George Washington Bridge (NJ side). Here are some random shots from that day.







Here is my step-son on the swing

Well, that's all folks! For now anyways :-)
