Passover

It's spring in Indianapolis and time for Passover seder for Grandpa Rick and Grandma Pat. We remember last year's meal when Sophie and Henry helped prepare the Seder plate. We look forward to having another Passover meal with Cathy's family in Chicago soon. Don't know if it will be before or after the arrival of the new O'Malley.

Sophie and Max favorite hobbies

Sophie loves gardening and Max loves playing in water....far from being scare of it unfortunately sometimes! So I bought these outfits for them.

guess what was the temperature of the water?

Here are some pictures from this WE at LaBaule where the weather was beautiful
Max and Sophie playing with a little bit of water in their buckets...that's a start...

Tasting the temperature of the water
and I guess it felt good!
"Look, I am all wet, let's do it again"
"We did it!!"
answer:55F!!!!

Final Four

Congratulations to Cathy I Do Not Cheat O'Malley for retaining sole possession of first place in the Hoop Heaven NCAA Tournament Pickem of 2011. Going into an unusual Final Four without a single one or two-rated team, Cathy remained number one, with no one actually having picked any of the final four teams.

As we head into a great inter-species rivalry for the final game (Butler Bulldogs vs UConn Huskies) Zeus shows his preference for the Bulldogs, in spite of his special relationship with the huskie breed, in this candid photo as he is relaxing in his back yard.
