Fall Fun Party (anti-Halloween)

Chestnut picking in Capranica (Viterbo)

Ten weeks to go and feel good!

David is excited about his baby brother.

A day at home

Our days are pretty much the same. After our hour of chores, we do "school" together for a while. After that, the little kids go in their playroom and play with mum while Eli and Sarah study until lunch time.

David`s birthday

We celebrated David`s birthday on August 15th with the grandparents from Brescia. My boy is 3!!

Vacation Bible Camp

We just came back from our week in Calabria. We have been refreshed and had some good teaching. We spent the afternoons at the beach and had a great time all together as a family. The kids also had fun singing and learning new things.

Sophie`s 5th birthday party

Sophie turned 5 on July 28th. She had a party with her twin friend Rebecca born on the same day. It was fun making the cake. There were lots of people that spoke english too!

Two days in Vienna

Matthew and I went to Vienna for my birthday. It was a very nice surprise for me since Matthew brought me to the airport without telling me where we were going! All the kids were at home with Meghan building forts, cleaning up and having fun. They had a great time and Meghan was exceptionally brave to say "yes" to Matthew`s request!

July at the lake

We are having a lot of fun going to the "Bracciano" lake almost every weekend. We just had a very nice and relaxing weekend with Matthew`s brother Simon and her wife Ema, and their kids Jonathan and Annalisa.
Unfortunately Esther is not feeling very well in these days: she is teething.
Meghan is really being a blessing, helping with the kids and with everything else.
Enjoy some pictures!!

At the lake

Playing in the garden

Meghan finally arrived. She is from America and she is going to stay at our house for 2 months. We are all very excited, especially me since she is helping me with the kids. They loved playing with the water in the sun!

First harvest!

Today the girls picked our first lettuce. It tasted so good!

David`s new passion!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY uncle Simon

By the sea

On Sarah`s ninth birthday (June 3rd) we had dinner at a restaurant by the sea. It was wonderful. The kids liked to play on the beach for a while before having dinner.

Pregnant!!!

Two weeks ago I started having nausea and vomit. I bought a pharmacy pregnancy test and with my big surprise it was positive. I did the HCG test too and I found out that I am in my third month. So we will have a December baby! The girls were so excited when we told them that they hugged each other and screamed " Hooray!".

Esther growing......

Esther took few steps with her grandad just this week-end.
She is growing very well just like her 6 months old cousin Joy.

Eli is 10 years old!

Elizabeth turned 10 on Saturday 19th.
For the occasion we (just me and her!) spent one night at a hotel and had lots of fun together. We swam in the hotel pool, ate ice-cream and went shopping. Then when we came home, she had a surprise party waiting for her. She was very happy as you can see in the picture. She enjoyed the cake and the presents a lot.

Esther eating pasta

She likes being on my lap when we are at the table. On Sunday she wanted to try our "pasta with pesto". I needed to stop her!

Gymnastics

Today me and Sarah went to a gymnastics meeting and these are some of the pictures that were taken while me and Sarah did our team dance. Sarah got first place with her team and I got seventh place with my team. Individually, me and Sarah got exactly the same amount of points. It was very fun!
