Twins!

Fire Pit

Daddy's been talking non-stop about getting a fire pit for the backyard.  This was his lucky week, because I found a nice one for sale on the local internet yardsale.  And with this crazy warm weather, it's the perfect time to break it in.

Weapons Class at Taekwondo

Bree's learning to use a staff today!

The Butterfly Place

Little excursion with the girls during school vacation week.

Ski Bums

Day #2 skiing with our cousins at the Loaf.  A little overcast (and a bit of drizzle) today, but still pretty awesome skiing!

First solo ride on the chairlift for Bree and Joe Joe.  They were holding hands!  Melt my heart.  :-)

Liam, Uncle Barrio, and Bree.  

Not everyday you see rainbows while skiing....

Double trouble, for sure.

Expedition along Moose Alley on the way back to the condo.

Wiped out.  In every sense.  What a great day!

Cousins

Did I mention it's cousins weekend?  And see that handsome little fella sandwiched between Aiden & Bree?  He turns FIVE today!  Happy birthday, Liam.  xoxoxoxo

Sugarloaf

Up at Grammy & Grampy's condo for some fun on the slopes this weekend!

Getting ready.....

No messing around on the baby slopes this year.  We took Aiden on a REAL chairlift for the first run of the day, while Bree took a lesson with her cousin, Joe Joe.  Aiden wasn't too happy with us for the first half of the run, but once he got his ski legs working, he did great!

Perfect snow, and great temps today!  Sometimes it can be too brutally cold up at Sugarloaf to enjoy the skiing.  Today was definitely a top 10 day.

Fueling up!

What a view!

Crazy Hat Day

80's Spirit Day

I'm proud to report that Aiden's teacher said that he was the only one that looked remotely 80's.  At least that's what he reported back when he got home....  

Dig the earring?  Left is right.  Right is wrong.  LOL!

Cub Scout Experiements

Hosted the cub scout den meeting at our house tonight.  Sadly, I can't even tell you what they were doing, since I spent the entire time cleaning up the trail they were leaving in my kitchen!  It was some sort of experiment....  Apparently a stinky one....

STEM Fair

Nothing says "Happy Valentines Day" like going to your 3rd graders STEM Fair with all the other upper elementary parents in town.....  This event was postponed not one, not two, not three -- but FOUR times because of snow this month.  STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math -- much more advanced from the good ol' fashioned Science Fairs of my generation.  Aiden's project tested the question "Which materials conduct electricity?"

Another Snow Day!

It took winter a longtime to get here, but it's now here....with a vengeance!

Leather Work

At Cub Scouts Pack Meeting.

Valentine's Party Prep

Last party of the year for this party mom.  Whew!  I'm fresh out of ideas.....

White Fluffy Stuff!

Eating snow.  Still one of her favorite things.....  Oye!

First Swim Meet

Bree's all prepared with her event numbers "tattooed" on her arm.  

One of the towns we swam against today was our beloved Westford, (The kids are actually swimming for a team based in Groton).  We got to hang out and compete with several of the kids' friends and classmates, making today pretty fun!
