2nd deck cont.

This was where all the captains slept and ate.

I think this was a pantry.

Look how big that rope is.

2nd deck cont.

The people back then must have been very short. Anthony's only 5'8 and he had to duck the whole time we were under the top deck.

This was one of the captain's rooms. It looks like he slept in a crib!

This was their toilet and bathtub.

The stairs were so steep. I bet a lot of people fell down those stairs.

3rd. deck

This was where all the soldiers slept.

Doesn't that look comfy!

This was the medicine room where they treated any wounds.

Lower deck

This was where they had the wounded. This was their bed. I can't even imagine what it was like to be there during that time.

This was the very bottom deck. All those wood things were to balance the ship.

This place was just a bunch of rooms. It was so small in there that the doors were like a little play house.

You can see how small it was in there!

Submarine

The USS Tork SS-423 Compartmentation.

This was a submarine that we took a tour through. I could never do this job, it was so claustrophobic in there.

A bathroom.

Part 2

This is where they all slept.

See how narrow it is in there, that's how it is through almost the whole submarine.

Part 3

All the doors were like that. Every time you went to a new room you had to climb into it.

This was the torpedo room.

This is where they would launch it. Kind of scary!

Theodore Roosevelt Island

Last weekend we took the boys to Theodore Roosevelt Island.

Showing their "Manhood"

Braxton & Shoes

So Braxton loves to wear my shoes. I don't know why but he does. Here are a couple of pictures this year that I took of him in various shoes. Enjoy!

I know there are more pictures,I just can't find them. He is crazy!

Random pics.

Braxton got this "scooter,scooter" as he calls it from Santa last year. He loves it as you can see. I went to check on him and this is what I saw. Nice.

I thought this was a funny pic. to see a 3 and 4 year old just sitting on a bed playing on a computer. Times are changing!

Just my boys being silly. They are so much fun, (for the most part) I love them so much!

Krispy Kreme

I took the boys to Krispy Kremes for the first time today to see the doughnuts being made and eat breakfast.

Carmine loved to watch the doughnuts go on the belt. He wouldn't leave.

Yum! Yum!

Our New Car!

So it's been about 3 years and Anthony got the itch for something new. So here it is a new 2010 Lexus RX350. We love it!

Thanks Babe for my new car, your the BEST!

Blueberry Picking

We took the boys again this year to pick some blueberries. Here we are riding in the tractor to take us to where the blueberries are.

(sorry this picture is blurry.)
