Our week with Sebra

Sebra, Kristal's mom, has been staying with us for the past week. It has been a lot of fun having her with us. I wanted to post a few pictures of the past week and the great things we have done.

Last Saturday we went to the Statue of Liberty:



Of all the tourist things we tend to do with people who visit, this one doesn't seem to get tiring. Screwing around with all the people on the ferry's and the lines get tiring, but it's a pretty cool landmark. Sebra found her grandmother and her grandmother's sister's names on the wall on Ellis Island. Very cool.

We also went to the Hoboken Arts and Music festival last weekend. As you can see it was crazy busy, but really cool. It was almost like a farmers market but with a lot more venders. I guess like a Saturday Market sort of thing. There were also two stages where none other than Mickey Dolenz was headlining that night. He's one of the guys from The Monkees. Unfortunately, we were too tired after walking for three hours to stick around for him, so we'll just have to catch him on reruns of the show. :-)





You can't see it very well, but Kristal was wearing an adorable skirt with music and piano notes on it. Very appropriate for the Arts and Music festival.


Little Oliver also got a new surprise -- a doggie bag!


He looks really cute in it. We took him to Central Park today in his bag (on the subways) and he did really good, and got lots of smiles from kids and women.

Here are a few more pics of him:



Here is Oliver playing with his new bag:



Kebra moved to Alaska this past Friday. She is spending the summer at a resort in Denali National Park doing seasonal work out there. It should be a great opportunity and a lot of fun for her. As a going away thing, Kristal, Kebra, and their mother all got pedicures:


And finally, for Monther's Day today, we all went to Central Park and Midtown. We always do a Mother's Day Picnic, so thought it fitting to do this years in Central Park.


The boys and I gave the necklace to Kristal this year. It was made by a local jeweler and is called a 'Loveprint.' We took thumbprints of Miles and Damion, the fingerprints are cast in Silver, and then she made them into a necklace:


On the back of each one is the boys' name. It's a really cool idea, the necklace turned out great, and it looks really good on Kristal.

That's all for now!
