Putting Jack to work!

Daddy's work had a special event for "Take your kid to work day" - they had tons of activities and got their own picture badge. They painted t-shirts with veggies, took a tour of the warehouse, played with goats and chickens and helped sort the tomatoes and make salsa! Jack's favorite part besides the salsa was the food - they served Mission BBQ mac and cheese, Bertucci's pizza and Popeye's chicken tenders - yum!

 

 

 this is the view from daddy's office of the floor where they make the salsa and cut all the fresh fruit

awesome, huh!?

Spring fun & Jack earned his ORANGE belt!

Here I am late again....we've had so much fun over the past month I just have no time to update the blog :)

Mama left work to have lunch with my favorite 2nd grader at school

 TONS of mulch delivered for under the playset

 So proud that Jack is moving up the ranks so quickly! He earned his orange belt...next up is green!

 she found an easter egg a month after Easter, lol!

 

Aunt Erica and mama finished the Sole of the City 10k!

Happy Easter!

We had a great Easter full of family & friends!! The Williams crew came over for brunch and an Easter egg hunt with the neighbors. Then we headed to the McNeece's to hang with them and the rest of the Mansolillo crew!

The Easter bunny left lots of goodies for these kiddos!

 Hangin with Grandmom and Grandad

 

 ready, set, GO!

 

 

 this pretty much sums up their relationship....

 

 

 another egg hunt!

 

 it was a great day for flying a kite!

 

Spring Break!

Jack had fun bouncing around from Grandmom & Grandad's, to his pal Blake's, to our neighbor Ben's house until finally mama was off work to hang out on Thursday and Friday of his Spring Break. We hit up the Baltimore Zoo with the Liguori family then bowling with his pals!

Jack & his pal, Ben from school

 this giraffe had the longest tongue I've ever seen!

 Gia hanging with the big girls :)

 

 

 

 

 

 she always falls asleep with something over her face...should I be nervous!? no! :)

Friday was rainy so we hit the duckpin bowling alley!

 

 Jack got a strike!

 Blake almost had a spare!

 precious....it took the ball at least 60 seconds to get down the alley every time but she'd patiently wait until it hit the pins :)

 crazy kids!

 Rita's!
