Happy Birthday, Katelyn!

Cub Scout Overnight

The boys had a cub scout overnight up in Rindge, New Hampshire this weekend.  Despite the mild temperatures this winter, the lake was frozen (enough...) for the planned ice fishing expedition.  Believe it or not, they even caught a few!

Games and movie night before turning in for the night....

In the morning, Aiden was one of the last to wake up.....

.....despite being SURROUNDED by the noise of everyone else around him packing up!

Promotion Day

Another Missing Tooth!

And - a coveted tooth necklace from the school nurse! 

Exeter

I've never been to a hotel that had stuffed animals on the bed, but this one did.  "Exeter" the sheep is evidently the hotel mascot.  Aiden & Bree didn't want to say goodbye.

Overnight in Beantown

I had some hotel points that were about to expire if they weren't utilized, so we decided to do a little overnight in Boston with the kiddos.  Only these crazy kids would actually think riding the T is fun and part of the adventure.....

There was a crazy snowstorm outside, but was nice and cozy inside the Science Museum. We spent a couple hours exploring here before venturing to the North End for dinner and trip to Modern Pastry.  

Couldn't quite capture it, but Aiden was actually sweet and snuggly with his little sister at bedtime.  Maybe all the sugar from the late night cupcake affected his brain.  ;-)

Basketball

Aiden's playing his first season of basketball with the Upwards program in Chelmsford, and is loving it so far!  At the beginning of the games, they announce the players as they run out.  Super cute!
