Arconati News

Happy Birthday to my darling wife Lisa! We don't have a big event planned to celebrate her birthday this year, but she did get a few things she wanted. We were helping out at VBS tonight, so we didn't even go out for dinner. But we'll make up for it as soon as possible.

Update (2008-07-31): Lisa made a really great slide-show video of the pictures we took at church over the whole week and I wanted to be sure and share it.

Happy Birthday. You got a little cake on your face.

Nine years ago today, we spent an impatient, exhausting day at the hospital. At 8:52pm, Reese M. Arconati was born to the world. I have been proud of every single moment and achievement since then.

Happy Birthday Reese Monster!

Lisa just sent this email.

Greetings all!

As you may know, Lucas' birthday is this Saturday (April 26). In an effort to remember him and commemorate his birthday we are having a small gathering at the cemetery. We will be releasing balloons and would like to attach any special messages you might like to say to, about or for Lucas. I know some of you won't be able to join us but I thought you might like to send along your message as well. For those of you who will be with us that afternoon we will be meeting at the cemetery at 1:30pm and you'll be able to bring your message then. If you want to send a message please write one out and send it to either myself or to Jimmy (also include message from the cousins Micah, Abby, Lily and Isaiah if you want to). Thank you all in advance for your messages and support. Lucas will surely love them!

Love ya all
Lisa

PS: Please make sure your messages can fit onto a 3X5 note card.

I'm working on what to put on my card for the balloon. I also have a lot of stuff collected from over the last few months that I want to share and I'll add a post when it is available.

Lillian Arconati, daughter of Jonathan and Kelly Arconati, turned one-year-old today. She is getting to be such a big girl! A wonderfully funny moment came while she was eating her birthday cake slowly and daintily. Just in fun, her mother came over and pushed her hand gently all the way into the cake to really get her messy. Lillian apparently does not like her hands being covered in mush and cake icing and began to bawl --but only for a minute. It was too cute.

Happy 60^th Birthday!! I wanted to post a recent picture of my mom, but almost all pictures I have of her include one or more of the grandkids. Since we have a long-standing policy of not posting these in public, I had to dig back to this old photo from 1997.

Our Trip to Six Flags

It's not the best picture of any of us, but it reminds me of summer fun with my mom from those years. She's always loved Six Flags for as long as I can remember. Anyway, Happy Birthday Mom! The last one to get to the roller-coaster is buying lunch.

Happy birthday, my angel, my dreamer, my starshine. I love you. You will always be our little girl.

So hold on to your teddy bear,
till the moon is out of sight,
I wish you only sweet dreams,
goodnight my dear goodnight.

Okay, that's fitting, but not really a decent picture of the big guy. Here -

Happy Birthday Dad!
