Happy 6 Years Baby!!!

On October 8th, 2006, I became Mrs. Lindsay Leone!  It was a beautiful day in sunny California with a sun shower, perfect arc rainbow, and our closest family and friends celebrating us with love.  We danced the night away and made lasting memories....   

 

Today, 6 years later, we celebrate a great life with two wonderful children and family by our side.  We are grateful for all the exciting changes we've had on this journey and look forward to many more.  

This past weekend, we wanted to share our anniversary with the kids and introduced them to our *favorite* spot in NYC ~ Meditteraneo.  This restaurant has great meaning as it is the cornerstone of our marriage; the place where Nick and I met almost 8 years ago.  We sat at the same table, ate the same food and laughed & toasted to the love we have for one another, for our children and for our family and friends.    

 Cheers to 6 X 6 more years together!  Love you Nicky!

XOXO

We're Back ~ Summer Celebrations!

It’s hard to believe a year has gone by since our last post in Massi & Bella’s World!  It's Labor Day, and I have promised myself (and Nick!) to put a bit more effort into writing this blog regularly.  We have family in all parts of the world that ask us for updates, and to my surprise people actually check the blog every week (who would have thought?!).  

Our summer is coming to an end, but was once again filled with fun and many birthday

celebrations!!  In July, we kicked of Daddy's big day, and celebrated the fourth with a few of our 

favorites from Virginia.  We always look forward to the Carnival coming to town and of course

everyday spent at Crestwood is a ball - I don't doubt the kids will be swimming come September.  

Carnival's in Town!

Pixie Sticks @ 10 a.m. only on
 July 4th!

Beach Beauty!

Fun Visit with the Petti's!

Celebrating our favorite Man's birthday!!

Massi and Bella have truly become best friends and share every moment with each other. Massi has added every conceivable instrument to his “marching band concerts” and Bella follows in line with every performance.  We enjoy watching all of their entertaining interactions and pinch ourselves when we see that glimpse of friendship and love!

Throughout the summer we've added a number of milestones to the kids list of fun achievements! Running, bicycling, riding their scooters, and swimming under water!

First Scooter Ride!  She's a pro!

It's official -- Massi can go underwater!

Drag Racing! 

Learning to ride his big boy bike!

First run to Town - 1 Mile!

The Summer is never complete without our annual trip to Cape Cod!  We always love seeing Nick's family and the kids adore their cousins.  Our week was filled with sunny weather, swimming in the ocean, long bike rides and visits to the Leone tomato farm.  Bella turned two during our vacation, so we hit the Chart Room to celebrate!

Queen Island Ferry to Martha's Vineyard!

Happy Birthday Sweet Bella!

Our Summer officially hit an all time high with the kids double birthday celebration in late August!  We had so many of our favorite friends over to toast to a great year.  We're so thankful for a great summer but are somewhat eager for the leaves to start falling and football to begin.  Massi & Bella would tell you they cannot wait for the marching band to start practicing at the High School.  Keep checking in on us & GO PATRIOTS!  XO
