Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day, Daddy! We love you so much and are so happy we had a special day to pamper you and treat you like the treasure you are to our family. 

In the morning, right after waking up, we gave Daddy his cards and gifts. 

The best way to start your day.
We surprised him with a gift card to Dick's Sporting Goods and an Oklahoma City Thunder t-shirt. Thunder Up!! 
Sweet picture! Gabby loves her Daddy!
We spent the afternoon at the neighborhood pool. Daddy and his favorite ladies! 
Happy Father's Day, David! We love you so much and truly appreciate all that you do for our family each and every day. You are a one and only!

Visit to PA!

On Wednesday we returned after a few days visiting family in western Pennsylvania. We drove out there - took two days each way as we stayed overnight - to attend my cousin's wedding and spent time with extended family. It had been two years since we visited so it was nice to see everyone. Although I had my camera with us on our trip, I admittedly didn't take enough pictures. We were super busy and I tended to forget to take it places. Here are some photos from our stay:

We went to a park with cousins Jason, Andy and Allison and their parents Marlynn and Jason one afternoon. Here's Jason and Adriana climbing.

Andy and Adriana being cute kids. 
Sweet Baby Allison. She is just shy of 3 months.  
We spent some time at Great-Grandma Connie's house one afternoon. This is a nice picture of the Mangino ladies. 
We enjoyed our time visiting with family even though it was a short stay. It's never enough time to catch up with everyone when so much time transpires in between visits. Never the less, we enjoyed the time we did have together while eating great food and being in the presence of those we love.

Happy Birthday, Vinny!

Last weekend we did what we called "Tour de Kansas." Our first stop was Hutchinson where we celebrated Vinny's first birthday; then on to Manhattan to see Nana and Grandpa and stay the night; next was Lawrence and then we finished it in KC before heading back to Tulsa. All of this in just two days. Wow! The girls were so well behaved in the car. True road warriors!

Here are pictures from Vinny's first birthday party. He is so adorable! It's hard to believe he's one (well, technically, he'll celebrate his first birthday on June 8th)!

The girls helping Vinny open our gift to him. We got him a ride/push Thomas the Train, a set of plastic golf clubs, pajamas and an outfit. The girls were so excited for him to open them up!
What a big boy! He's walking, too!

They are such a cute family.
He thought the Elmo cake was pretty fun.
So happy to be messy!
Happy Birthday, Vinny! You are such a sweet and happy little boy! We love you!
