Bully and Taylor( Raising our Family)
Petey. Patrick had a lot of nicknames (some of them he gave to himself). (Raising our Family)
He was called P.J. as a child but once when a coworker of mine asked him if the P( in P.J.) was for Peter he answered,'yes."
Stephen's First Ride (Raising our Family)
When Stephen proudly brough his new (used) car home to show his brothers Patrick tried to open the front passenger door and the handle came off.
Or given to Fr Baker!
Canada: We miss the old days of the magic carpet, comet and yellow roller. (Childhood Memories)
Denny and PJ at Crystal Beach cottage. Patty in the background.
Our cottage was quite a find!My Uncle Jack, an engineer, was correct in noting that ...it might need some work.
The plumbing seemed to be constantly 'on the fritz' . It kept Billy busy and Patrick was his willing assistant until he found something more interesting.
Patrick had the best time exploring, finding relatives and bringing them back to see me, escaping from his babysitters, and sneaking into his Aunt Patty's pool.
The crawl space was mysterious until Jimmy, our neighbor, fell though in an attempt to retrieve Maddie's sandal.
We were told by neighbors that there was a built in pool in the backyard so for awhile we made it our mission to dig it out. Fail.
Peggy brought a blow up boat and the kids had the most fun with that.
Mary rented a cottage across the street resulting in even more fun! Skip brought fireworks on his way so we lit up the night to all our neighbors delight.
