Rocking Chair

How that our sun room floor is (finally) complete, we brought up some old chairs and they work perfectly.  I have so many memories of this wooden rocking chair.  To see my beauties smiling and rocking on it fills my bucket!

Lite Brite

Dug out the Lite Brite.  Didn't actually interest Meggie for as long as I hoped!

Stained Glass

LOVE my new glass panels!

Coolidge Reservation

Lora gave us the details and we went to check out this beach.  I love the gritty cold of the beach in spring.  Meg and Pip were off and running.  It was windy and cold.  Viv used all the brave she had and lasted about 15 minutes.  Then we had to get back into the woods for cover!

Happy Birthday Bridget!

Rockin the scarf

Thanks Glenna!!

I think I need to work on my selfies!

Digital Art

Native American Day

Pip's hard work, paying off at school.  He was very proud and very excited to answer all the adults' questions!

How do you like my dinner?

Meg's usual response to my home-cooked, thoughtfully prepared meals.

Ring around the dinner table

When Pip was 2 or 3 he'd need to do laps every night before bed to get his energy out.  Now we've got three circling after dinner!

Friends

A fun afternoon playdate with Wood End friends!  Neil got dirt in the eye, catapult injury requiring ice cream!

 Meanwhile, the girls made mud!  You know it's spring when mud is fun.

Vivie RIDES!

Phil decided it was time to work with Vivie on her bike.  No trainers!!!  The woman is amazing!

After some practice she has moments solo.

Only a short bit later!

After a day's work and a few skinned knees later.

Taking the cleaning seriously

Viv will be known for the quality of her work.

Casino night

Lots of fun at the Clark's Pan Mass Challenge Fundraiser.  Jaimee, Kelly, and I played craps all night.  Kisses all around!  Yo!

A good man

Pip is moving up from clearing duties to the big pots!!!  Phil and I are both very happy.

Match!

Viv and Jessica, with matching outfit's for Franklin's party at Chuck E Cheese.

Piple Syrup

Pip and Dad went to the Ipswich River Sanctuary for maple syrup tours this weekend.  It was cold, but the syrup was still running!

Happy St. Paddy's Day!

Pip in his bling at the Wiggin's and our rainbow cake!

Potential?

No, this is not our yard.  It's my friend Jess's.  But the question is, how hard do I push for Phil to try again on the smaller tree in our back yard?

  

Animal Adventures

Phil and Vivie discovered a crazy "zoo" full of all sorts of animals you can see up close.  They went for their date night.  It was so incredible we all went back a bit later over vacation week!

Vivie trying to block Dad from the shot!

Bunny and Me

Meg reads us one of her favorite books!

Boston Bead Company

Vivie loved the Boston Bead Company for our date.  She was very intent on her design and I was not allowed to offer any input at all.  Mom, I know what I'm doing!!!

Dandylions

It doesn't feel like spring, but Dandylion's is open!

We took a walk down to check it out!

Yuengling

Yuengling is officially here!

Best waiting room experience yet

Went to get Pip's ears checked again (he's doing great!).  Kids all found books and started reading.  I had nothing to do!!

Dr. Seuss Week

Viv and Jessica made these hat's in their class for Dr. Seuss week!

Tired

Found Pip in the captain's chair.  Conked from the benadryl to help with the balloon swelling.

Happy Birthday Julia!

Meggie all dressed up for her BFF's birthday party!!

Pip did also play with the balloons and blew up again.  Ugh.

The Vivian

Ordered the Vivian at Firehouse Subs.  The woman took it down.
