Our Weekend

Image

Lucy went to Esme’s birthday party on Saturday afternoon. She had so much fun!! This is the first time that she’s had to stand in a line with other children and listen to instructions. She did such a good job! Of course I took her picture in the line 🙂

Later that afternoon Auntie Liz came over with Sidney for dinner:

Yesterday I decided to try and make bagels for the first time:

ImageImageImage

They tasted better then they looked but I think I need to buy a bread machine.

After our bagels I took Chloe on a Barnes and Noble and Starbucks date:

Then we settled in to read by the fire, watch some football (BOO Patriots) and hang out late since we have another day off today!

These pictures are great and we’re having a great winter so far but I really can’t wait to see some green in my pictures!! I can’t wait to see flowers, green trees and tank tops!! Thankfully the weather has been “warm” enough to start melting this snow. I’m ready for spring!! 

Oh Christmas Tree…

We went searching for our “perfect” Christmas tree on Sunday. It was bitter cold and had just started to snow. I knew it would be a perfect setting for taking pictures. ImageImageImageImageImage

About 20 minutes into our hunt we all had numb fingers and toes. We decided that any old cut tree up at the barn would do.

It’s a little crooked. There are a few bare spots and I’m sure that it will be dried out before Christmas but I LOVE it!! It’s perfect for us!! 

Their View

This is what the kids see most of the time when they’re looking at me:

Image

I LOVE taking pictures of them!! I think they’re all so cute and I’m trying to capture our every day moments!! It makes me so happy that they’re always ready to pose. Well not always but they know that if they don’t smile I’ll still take their picture.

“Smile or look grumpy, I’m still taking the picture”

Being Thankful

As Thanksgiving week is starting to wind down it’s fun to look at our thankful page and see what everyone in the house is most thankful for. There is a huge variety of things from warm bathrobes to Taylor Swift to God. It makes me realize that this family is thankful for all of our blessings and as a mother and wife that makes me so happy.

I am most thankful for being a wife and mother. Being able to spend everyday with these 5 people makes me the happiest woman in the world.Image

Happy Thanksgiving!!

My Week in iPhone Photos

Lucy helped Daddy clean up the yard while I went to Emily’s baby shower on Saturday

My beautiful friend Emily is having her first baby. I can’t wait to meet him or her!!

Lucy wanted to help clean up the yard after Hurricane Sandy.

Our plan is to write something every day that we are most thankful for.

We have a large piece of paper taped to our back door that we started writing things on too. I will post it once it’s filled up.

Aislinn’s Wedding

I LOVE going to weddings!! Weddings and baby showers are my favorite “parties” to go to. It’s even more special when it’s someone you really care about. Here are a few pictures from this weekend.
