Dear Mark,
A little nostalgia for you - Aunt Ari´s wedding day. Reese started her job at DeLoitte - she spent this week in Dallas for orientation. David is in his last year at Harvard law school smart kids!
Our laundry is piling up! Painting came out nice and the washer and dryer is coming tomorrow.
Going to Bordentown for dinner on Saturday - yum
Wishing you the most peaceful and perfect night, Mark. We love and miss you so, so much. God bless you and all in Heaven.

Dear Mark,
This photo was taken at Ba and Pop-Pops 50th anniversary party. It´s hard to believe that we´re only 5 years away from the same!
Grampy came for dinner tonight and we watched half of a terrible movie and then a bunch of trailers for new ones that will be in the theaters soon. Mom made spareribs tonight.
No exciting news to share. No new softball games for the girls this week... Macy has two on Saturday morning and Norah doesn´t have one until next Monday.
That´s about it for today. We love and miss you always, Mark. Have the best night filled with smiles. God bless you and all in Heaven.

Love this photo of you and Meg. Aunt Ari has this in a frame and keeps it on her mantel.
Tomorrow we´re saying good-bye to our ancient washer and dryer, painting the laundry room on Wednesday and will have the new W/D delivered on Thursday. Mom is very excited!

Macy was pretty exhausted after her game on Friday and Pickles was there too - it was her birthday so Megan brought her to the ballpark ... Isn´t this the cutest photo of them napping together?

Well, the Phillies are done for this year. Dad will probably be a little depressed tonight, but he´ll be fine by the morning.

Dear Mark,
One of our favorites because it´s hilarious :)
It´s 11:30 PM and right now we´re watching the eighth inning of the Phillies Dodgers game. Phillies are up eight to one!
Our big news is that we bought a new washer and dryer today. Our current ones are on their last leg, so it was time.
Macy has a game Friday night. We´re looking forward to seeing her play... We haven´t been to one of our games this year because her dance schedule comes first and she has skipped nearly every game.

Dear Mark,
It´s kind of hard to get a good picture of Norah during a game, but here she is playing first base. Her team won by a landslide. Norah was batting 4th and had 2 pop-ups, a walk and a single. She´s really confident on the field, which we´re so happy to see. The game was in Tabernacle tonight and on the way home we passed Evergreen dairy bar, so of course we had to stop for a cone... Grampy treated. :)
That´s tonight´s news, Mark. Have a night filled with smiles. Always know how very much you are loved. God bless you and all in Heaven.

Yikes! Phillies are 0-2 in the play-offs. They almost caught up in the 9th inning tonight but a couple of bone head moves proved to be too much for them to overcome ... now they have to win two in a row in LA - fingers crossed!
We´ll be going to Tabernacle tomorrow night for Norah´s game - make sure you´re there with us please.

Dear Mark,
We usually don´t send pictures of the girls anymore because they don´t like to be on social media, but we don´t think Norah will mind this one. She went to a dance last night and we think she looks absolutely beautiful. She´s really so well rounded ... she´s a straight A student, has many different interests and a great group of friends ... she´s looks happy, which makes us very happy. Please share this photo.
not so good game for the Phillies tonight... Hopefully they´ll do better on Monday. Good luck to Stunners and Magic Markers this week. Two wins would be ideal.

Dear Mark,
What a great time we had watching Norah´s game tonight. Even though the Quakers lost by a few runs, you would be proud of Norah´s play. She covered first base for two innings and center field for the last three innings - she was very good at first! She got two hits and a RBI and batted 3rd tonight - that´s her sweet spot! Fun!
Her team has a group after every game with the coaches and Norah happened to be looking our way :)

The girls had the day off from school, so Macy and Mom took a trip to Target and Five Below. Here she is in her favorite aisle where the blind bags are. She is obsessed with them! After shopping, Starbucks and Pizza Hut, they came back here and played some board games ... Macy always wins. Mom took her home around dinner time so they enjoyed lots of time together - hard to squeeze in sometimes because of her dance schedule. Now she´s playing the trumpet at school and assisting the teachers at her new dance school with 5 year future ballerinas. She´s a busy girl!

Dear Mark,
Softball season is back! Thanks for joining us tonight for Norah´s game! She´s batting third and tonight she got three hits and drove in three runs - she´s got a strong swing this year! She´s playing with loads of confidence and has a different coach from last year which we think is going to make a big difference. Last year she had a guy coach who yelled at the team all the time... This year it´s a woman coach and we think Norah feels much more comfortable. She had a big smile after the game and the whole team went out for ice cream after their win. Thanks for being with Norah tonight Uncle Mark!

This was our first and most important stop on our trip ... Skagway. Of course we had to go to the Bonanza Bar and toast you in your favorite place. We´ll be there again next September. Not a drop of rain the entire trip ... we thought that was amazing! We may be repeating ourselves, but we looked at the forecast every day before we left, and it called for mostly 100% rain in every single port. You did it, Mark!

The third picture is of an area right outside of our room with complimentary chocolate covered raisins, trail mix and malt balls.

Hooray ... The Phillies did it! We were in Victoria, Canada tonight and got back to the ship around 11 pm. As soon as we got to our room, we turned the Phillies game on... Dad had recorded it and we watched it on his PC. Of course you know that they won in a nail biter in the 10th inning 6-5. Hope that you and Pop-Pop were watching together!
This was such an amazing trip - we had lots of time on our hands today since we were sailing all day so we spent a good portion of our time planning next year´s cruise ... Going to try a new cruise line - Celebrity. They advertised an unbelievable sale over the weekend and we snatched it up!
Tonight we had a great time in Victoria. We did a little shopping and went for a casual dinner across from the Parliment building - look how pretty it is all lit up!

The girls seem to be enjoying themselves on vacation... Three more days before they come home for the weekend and then start school on Tuesday. They got their teachers assignments ... Norah doesn´t know her teachers by name because she´s starting a new school, but Macy seems happy with the homeroom teacher that she got. We will probably miss a softball game or two while we´re away, but really look forward to watching the girls play throughout the fall.
Enjoy a beautiful, peaceful night and always know that you´re so loved. God bless you and all in Heaven.
Love Forever, Mom and Dad xoxoxo

Hi from Brooklyn!
Stayed at home today... Didn´t even make it to our coffee run. We watched the Phillies game and then the World Series Little League game... Taiwan won.
Two weeks to go until Alaska... It´s finally almost here! Should be really interesting now that we´re taking a different cruise line instead of Norwegian. We remember how much fun we had on Carnival before, and are really looking forward to a new experience. Can´t wait until we go to Skagway and the Bonanza bar!
Steve and Family are at LBI now... They´re going to have beautiful weather this week. Mom is going over to their house twice a day to feed the cats.

Didn´t do anything notable today, just watched the little league semi finals. Tomorrow, Las Vegas, plays Taiwan for the world championship. Phillies won tonight!

Chloe was the cutest little flower girl at Joy´s wedding. When the music started, she was dancing up a storm. She´ll be a big sister pretty soon to another little girl for Missy and Ryan. It sounds like Missy and Ryan will soon move up to this area from Florida. Holly will be lucky to have all of her grandkids within a few hours.
Tomorrow Steve and Family are going to see Hamilton in NYC, so we´ll have Pickles here for the day - Macy is so excited - she knows the words from every Hamilton song. Now she watches all kinds of musicals on her I-pad. It will be a good day for both girls... Even though Norah isn´t a Hamilton fan, she loves going into the city - especially for the pizza.
Grampy came over for dinner and we watched the Phillies win their third straight in a row.

Dear Mark,
Mom took the girls shopping today ... she was hoping that they would pick out some school clothes. Norah couldn´t find anything she liked, so she got a pair of pajamas, makeup and stocked up on candy to take on vacation. Macy got a few T-shirts, socks, pajamas, candy and a few small toys. She´s a sucker for those blind bags... They´re toys in little bags where you can´t tell what´s inside, so each one is a surprise. After shopping, mom dropped Norah off at her house and brought Macy back here. Macy made us special drinks - she got the recipe from TikTok. They were very fancy and delicious! Always a good day with the girls!
As always, Mark, we love and miss you so, so much. God bless you with the most perfect, beautiful night. Please give our love to all in Heaven.

Mom and Macy spent some time at the Cherry Hill mall earlier today. Macy got some treats and a red football jersey to wear on the 1st day of school. She wanted something red to match her red high top converse sneakers that she´s going to wear. They didn´t forget about Norah, and bought her a few things to take home to her. After the mall, Macy came back here. She made us root beer floats and we played some board games. Dad was super busy with work, but managed to squeeze in a few minutes here and there with Macy. She makes a good root beer float!
Norah is enjoying her music camp at Rutgers. Steve drives her in every morning at 8:30 and pick her up at 12:30. They´re all going to see Hamilton in New York City in a few weeks... Macy is obsessed with that play and they gave her tickets for her birthday.

Don´t that you have a date with Kathy tomorrow at Jefferson Hospital - 7:30 a.m. We confident that she´s going to do well and will be home within a few days. Dad and I spent the evening at Kathy´s house tonight and she was in good spirits.

Dear Mark,
Jill just had a baby boy a few days ago - His name is Vinnie - cute little guy!
Speaking of babies, Missy found out today that Chloe will have a baby sister. She and Joy are both due in November, Missy´s due date is right around Grammy´s birthday, so we´re hoping for the 18th.
Tomorrow night we´ll be bringing dinner to Kathy and Dan´s. Kathy is having surgery on Wednesday, so we´ll be counting on you to be by her side all day.
We love and miss you always, Mark. God bless you with the most perfect night. Please give our love to all.
Love Forever, Mom and Dad xoxoxo
