We had an amazing weekend with Godchildren, Casey and Sarah, and Grand Godlings, Noah and Gabe. It was JUST what we needed! Sarah and Casey were fabulous hosts, and we were all treated like royalty. Sarah cooked wonderful and delicious meals, and we had lots of playtime. I didn't lift a finger! I did lift a few legs, though.

Federico was soon the favorite for Horsey rides!


"Nonna Palma" got lots of time with the kids, and after bedtime, Federico and Brad enjoyed time in Casey's mancave garage game room for hours of pool, darts and video games!
Casey grew up as the little brother to my other Godson, Corey. He was perfect as big brother to Federico! I loved watching my "big boys" bond!

Sarah is a terrific mom and it was great to hang out with her!

It was just what we needed! We'll see them all again for Thanksgiving!

That's a great looking family that you have and nice to have them so close to you. Did Federico know that he was getting a whole new set of relatives? American cousins!!

I'm glad you got some TLC for yourself. Looks like you have the "horsey ride" game down pat:).
