Giada!!

If you know me, you know I love Giada De Laurentiis from The Food Network! She was signing her new cookbook today, Giada at Home, at Barnes and Noble and I got to meet her ... she didn't pose for pictures so my wonderful mom had to just try to snap a pic of Jennifer and me getting our book signed from the designated "picture area." She's super nice and just as pretty in person as she is on TV ... I was totally star struck*

Clifford!

Jennifer waited so patiently to see Clifford ... but when it was finally her turn she changed her mind!! He's much scarier in real life ; )

Long weekend!

We had a nice, loooong weekend - it was restful, relaxing, and more importantly, fun! We headed to the NC Zoo Friday morning ... it was packed but we still had a great time. Jennifer's favorite part was the carousel that we rode 4 times. Then, after the zoo, it was off to the lake house!
Jennifer got to ride in the boat for the first time, turns out she looooooves it! She especially loved it when Phil held her up while we were riding down the lake - she even started saying "hit it" when she wanted Papa to stop talking and make the boat go fast!
Sunday Jennifer had a basket waiting for her from the Easter Bunny. She's decided that the Easter Bunny is her new favorite person because he leaves jelly beans. It was a great weekend and we can't wait to go back to the lake house!!
(ps - the pictures are backwards, so you're starting from Sunday and working back to Friday...)
