Caribbean Friday

Published on January 26, 2013February 20, 2013 by 7friarysLeave a comment

Every winter we have one night when we pretend it’s not 15 degrees outside. We grill some burgers, we make some pasta salad and a big pitcher of lemonade. We eat our dinner while listening to some Bob Marley.

Jon and I started the day by going to Bahama Breeze for a lunch date. While we were gone the girls decorated the house to make us feel like we were on vacation when we got home. They did such a good job!

As soon as we walked in the house Lucy greeted us by saying “Welcome to paradise”

Even though I love our summer day in winter, I think I love Caribbean Friday even more! Thanks girls for the relaxing day!!

A Bad Cold

I know kids get sick. Kids get colds and fevers all the time. I just hate when MY kids get sick!! It always make me feel so helpless. At least this gives me a good excuse to stop cleaning and start snuggling! Feel better, Lu!

School

I had a little bit of a shock yesterday when I read that my friend Amy was signing her son up for Kindergarten this week!! He’s only a couple of weeks older then Lucy. I mean, I knew I had to do it but how did it come up so quickly?? SOOOO not looking forward to this. sigh… Then I realized that this summer Jon and I are going to be driving Emma all over New England (and then some) to look at colleges. She is going to be a senior next year. Time really does fly!

Even though I’m sad that they’re not babies anymore I’m really excited for both of them!!

Winter Afternoons

I haven’t been a huge fan of winter this year. It’s too long and too cold. I do, however, love our winter afternoons. The girls don’t play any sports in the winter and Megan’s musicals have been cancelled since her teacher announced her pregnancy. They come home off the bus and I love it!!

Afternoon snacks are a must! Icecream for Chloe, cereal for Emma and a salad for Megan.

They spend time working on their homework:

They spend time on their iPads and iPods:

They snuggle with their little sister who misses them so much during the day:

And they make a mess out of the house that I cleaned all day! They leave their shoes, sweaters, jackets and bags all over the kitchen!!

I love it!! I love having them home with me every afternoon!!

Little Pats Fan!

Night Sledding

Lucy called Jon at work yesterday and left him the sweetest little message about taking her sledding when he got home. He ended up working late but he doesn’t say no to her too often so he took her out last night before bedtime.

I love this guy!! He’s the best daddy and husband in the whole world!

Snow Day!

Lucy and Jon had so much fun playing in the snow the other day!! Chloe wanted to join in the fun for one run down the “hill”.

I’ve been sick for the past 3 days. Jon and the girls have been taking good care of me. They all went back to school and work today but I still have Nurse Lucy here. Right now I’m on the couch watching her put together her puzzle. She is such a good little girl!

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.
