This year my family and I are participating in the Revlon Walk for Women's Cancer in NY. This is the first year we are walking as a team. The Brave "Harts"!
This is such a wonderful event that is so close to all of us. Sadly, we all have someone in our lives who has been or is currently affected by cancer. The more money we can raise, the closer we are to a cure.

Walking...Food...more walking...way more food...
So Ron and I spent the weekend in Philadelphia. My sister, Kathy, had volunteered to watch Ally and Patrick so we couldn't pass that up. Although it felt like 3 days were over in 5 minutes, it was nice to get a break from parenting, work, dog, etc...
We saw a really funny musical called Parenting 101, ate dinner at some great restaurants, and walked all over the city. We learned that the Philly Chinatown is nowhere near as nice as NY, but Little Italy has some great places.
Ron was in heaven at the Brazilian BBQ restaurant, Fogo de Chao. I quite enjoyed it, as well. We tried to get a little history in, but quite frankly, it's not my cup of tea. But we did see the Liberty Bell through the window. (The line to get in 10 miles long)
Thankfully Patrick was very well behaved. He loved having Jack to play and bunk with all weekend. He was so beat, he passed out at 8:30 last night. I don't think he's gone to sleep that early since he was in infant. And of course Ally had a good time with Emily.
Can't wait for the next weekend away....(wonder if Kathy knows that. hahah)

Another year has come and gone....
I can't believe it's 2011 already. I know EVERYONE says this, but time really does fly. It's crazy. Christmas came and went so quickly this year. It seems like it was over in a second. The kids had a great Christmas. Patrick was beyond pleased with his yellow dump truck and pillow pet from Santa. And I havent seen much of Allyson since Christmas. She is in her room with her new Ipod Touch and all of her scrapbooking.
She was the only one with New Year's Eve plans this year. She spent the night at her friend's house. Ron, Patrick, and I just relaxed. Watched Dick Clark and actually made it to midnight (as did Patrick).
I am trying to think of a good resolution that might be able to stick. What I would LIKE to do is to be able to let things go easier. I have a problem with grudges. I hear it's an Irish thing. I also worry about everyone else way too much. I need to relax.
Hopefully a February trip to the Bahamas will help. Ron and I decided to escape alone. My wonderful sister has volunteered to keep the kids. I'm sure they will have a lot of fun with Emily, Kevin, and Jack for a long weekend.
Now the countdown begins. Of course for this...time will not fly.
We hope everyon ehas a helathy and happy 2011!

Away in a Manger...the performance of a lifetime!
Today was Patrick's Christmas show. He was an awesome sheep. He sang every word and did every dance move. We were so proud. He's a natural. Takes after his Mom and YeYe, that's for sure!
