A Fun and Presidential Weekend

I am behind on posting so I will start to catch up with this weekend's fun events. We went to Ocean City on Saturday for a fall day and the last time to ride the rides before winter closing. The boys had a wonderful time and the weather was beautiful.

Fire Safety Month even in Ocean City :)

Nick on his pony Homey.

Nate on his pony Cinnamon.

How cute is this little guy playing golf?

Nick is very serious about his craft.

Nate seriously poses with anyone dressed up in costume.

The bumper cars were the biggest hit- Nick even let Nate steer.

Nate making sure he is tall enough.

Nate behind bars :)

The boys having a blast.

Nate and his nanny on the carousel.
(THIS KID SERIOUSLY LOOKS NOTHING LIKE ME!!)

The fun filled rides

Nate upset because it is time to leave the rides :)

The Jersey boys on the shore.

Post ice cream with Daddy.

The boys asleep on the way home.

Even our biggest guy was pooped :)

On Sunday, Matt had a chance to shake hands with Mr. President. Unfortunately, due to the crowd, he wasn't able to get a good picture of the actual handshake, but here are a couple of good shots. Stay tuned for some funniest Fine home videos of Nate tomorrow!

Let's Not Forget....

.... little Nate. He is going to a cooperative preschool with me on Wednesday mornings. It is a great time to fix my attention on him in a learning environment. As a teacher, I love it. Here is his first project and he was very proud to hold it up "just like Nick."

Dover #2

Nick went to his second Dover race this weekend, so many of these pictures will look familiar since he was just there in May. Seriously, what kid goes to a Nascar race on Saturday and a pro football game on Sunday? ONLY NICHOLAS FINE :)

Nicholas's First Giants Game

Nicholas went to a preseason game last year with Matt and Papa at Giants Stadium. Yesterday, he went to his first regular game with Mommy, Aunt Cathy and Uncle Mark. It was our first game in the new stadium, still called Giants Stadium to us! Here we are. Although they lost, we had a great time cheering on Big Blue!

And the verdict is....

... a star. A green star. Nick got a green star on his first homework. He is very proud indeed!



On Sunday, we walked out the door to church and I realized that all the boys were wearing light blue and khakis. They looked very handsome.

The two little guys.

The Finest boys indeed.

First Day of.... Homework!

Today was Nick's first day of homework. He was so excited to do it. I hated to break it to him that this was his future for the next 13 years at least. For those of you interested, he had to write a capital "A" five times, a lowercase "a" five times, and the number "0" five times.... here's to the next 13 years!

September is for Sports!

Go Giants! Go Seahawks! You guys know what we are doing on Sundays. But, there are a lot of sports we are interested in here at the Fine Household. Check out a few.

Thanks to Auntie Crista, the boys are bouncing around the house on their new hop balls!
Thanks Auntie Crista! We love you.
(Disclaimer-- I don't let my child out without shorts on in public, but when we are home,
diaper changes are a big fight and I lose after a clean diaper goes on!)

Auntie Crista spoiled Nick too and got him one as well. He loves it!

Right through the house, there they go!

Nick started soccer through our township.

He has grown a lot since he played last-- he was only 3!!

He has made 6 goals in 2 games. He is quite the competitor!!

Golf. It is an obsession since Ocean City's adventures with Golfin' Gaga.
It has transferred into our house and to Nate.
Watch out. The Fine boys are going to be famous somewhere!!

On that note, which Manning brother are you cheering for tonight? I keep dreaming of Nick and Nate playing each other in the NFL 20 years from now. That would be total awesomeness!! :)
