Welcome to the internet home of the Saporito
family! We hope you'll join us for all sorts of fun family
pictures and stories!
SNOW!
The girls got to see snow for the first time in
our trip to West Virginia in February 2006. You can see
more great photos of this trip in the Photos
section.
Fun in the Sun
We had the chance to escape for a few days to Miami and the
Florida Keys in June 2005. It was our first trip to both
places, and our first trip by train! You can check out
some of the pictures we took by looking in the Photos
section.
YES! We really took this picture!!
Our New Addition
Our latest family member isn't a baby...it's a puppy!
Princess joined our family on January 15, 2005. We adopted
her from a local pet rescue. She is a darling girl -- so
sweet and gentle.
Reading Time?
We're trying to potty train Rachel, but it seems
like she's picking up the important aspects all on her own.
This is how we caught her one evening late in January 2005.
Notice what she's reading? A guitar catalog, of course!
2004 Sparks-a-Rama
Gabriella was selected to participate in this
year's Sparks-a-Rama, a competition between all the Central
Florida Sparks clubs, which are the K-2nd grade kids in the Awanas
program. When we got there we learned that one of the
other Sparks teams was going to have to forfeit because not
enough team members showed up. Anna volunteered to
play for the other team so that they wouldn't have to go home.
2004 Lake County Renaissance Faire
Gabriella is taking a class on Medieval Times in her
Tuesday group classes. To enhance her experience of the
period, we decided to take her to a renaissance festival over by
Tavares, Florida. We all had a great time, especially at the
medieval magic show where our own Gabe was chosen as an
audience "volunteer." He got to fire a bunny out of
a cannon! Gabe stole the show when the magician told him to
fire the cannon and he pointed at the cannon and said, "You're
fired!"
2004 Father-Daughter Valentine Dance
Each year the girls' homeschool group (Circle
Christian School) hosts a Father-Daughter Valentine's Day
Dance. The girls wore their matching dresses from Christmas,
and Gabe wore a shirt to match. Abby met a friend from Cubbies
there and spent the evening dancing with her. Anna met a
friend from the homeschool group, and spent the evening playing with
her. Gabe and Gabriella had a fun night spent mostly
together. They did the chicken dance (twice!), the hokey
pokey, plus other favorites. I wish the photographer had taken
a non-fuzzy picture of this highlight of the girls' year!
2003 Disney IT Cast Holiday
Party
Gabe's office party was held at Dinoland in the
Animal Kingdom this year. As usual, the food was incredible.
They had carnival games (where we won the Mickey and Minnie
puppets we're holding) and a couple of rides open. The
highlight of our evening, though, was the live band
"Frankie and the West End Boys" from Pleasure
Island. We danced to almost every song they played, and
left the party after they played their last set.
