Easter 2012

Patriots Day

Patriots Day is a big deal in New England. Everyone has the day off and there are lots of battle re-enactments around where we live. We packed a picnic lunch and went out to watch one this year. Fun! Here's the link for anybody who wants to know what the heck Patriots Day is:

Colin's Birthday

Colin's 4! We celebrated Colin's birthday
with a New York Subway/Thomas themed party.
He had lots of fun!!

Snow Fun!

We didn't have much snow this winter, but there were a couple of days that were perfect to get out and play a little....at least for me and Colin...Claire didn't like it so much.


As I was taking this picture, Claire was crying, "There's snow on my boots!!"

Watch Out...Colin's Ice Skating!!

Colin had his first ice skating lesson this past Friday. As soon as we had his skates on he asked, "Mama, where's my hockey stick?" We just might have the next star hockey player on our hands!! The video is a little shaky because Claire was trying to hang on my arm. It's still enough to see the important part though!

Kendall McBride's Birthday

We had a fun time last weekend celebrating Colin and Claire's cousin, Kendall's, 2nd birthday in New Hampshire. It's always fun to hang out with cousins!

Christmas

Here are the pictures from our Christmas 2011. Colin had a great party at his school where we enjoyed decorating cookies. Well, Claire enjoyed eating the frosting and Colin enjoyed eating the sprinkles. We also picked out our Christmas tree at a local nursery.
