Just checking in.

So it's been awhile since I posted last, so I thought I would just check in. I was in Baltimore last week, had a great time and a few to many desserts.
Mom came in and watched the kids so Scott and I could go to Baltimore together...very nice! We had a great view, great food and great company while there. I was a really nice inner harbor, probably nicer when it's not raining. But that didn't stop us from exploring the place and eating at some great places. We ate at M&S Grill, Phillips Seafood, Edo Sushi, and dessert for Cheesecake Factory...way to many times!
It's nice to be home, I always miss my babies!

Happy New Year!!

So we had a great New Year; we spent it with friends, new friends and mom. The kids had a wonderful time playing and snacking...i think we will be getting a wii. The guys drank beer and played cards. We women talked, watched the kids and ate a ton of food! Thanks Chef Jennie, loved everything!

So I was thinking, life is already good but how can i make it better? I am going to try and reconnect with some friends, accept others for who they are and as another friend said get rid of the ones that do not benefit me at all(not said quite as well by my friend).

I hope everyone gets what they want this year, i hope we all better ourselves for the good and always love yourself!

Happy New Year!!

Christmas!

We had a great Christmas, Santa brought everything we wanted plus! We had a wonderful morning, slightly lazy...but what else is Christmas for but to relax, enjoy family and open presents.

My mother was here with us enjoying the wonderful holiday and then she is off again...Oklahoma next...she is quite the traveler...retirement is good!

Baking was a big part of the holiday's too!

I hope you all have a wonderful and happy New Year!

  

Snow in Massachusetts!

I haven't posted in awhile...bad me. I have been slightly busy with picking up more hours for Lauren and everything else. We did find the time to do Christmas picture's...I made cookies for friends and family and even finished wrapping all the presents...I think I might have gone a little overboard with the gifts. We only live once...right?

I hope to be on here posting again soon but you know how things go around the holidays so...
Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year!!!!!

Pumpkins

So Parlee Farms was having " $20 all you can carry pumpkins" so we went. Saturday was the day, it was beautiful...the sun was out and the leaves were bright. We get there and there weren't that many people, I guess most people get there pumpkins early. So we go and pick out our pumpkins, Lauren gets to ride...nice.

Dad has to carry the pumpkins...all 8 of them! Ok...so it's only 4 big and 4 small. He was still loaded up...yet they already started unloading him by the time I got my camera out. You did good dad!

I just love family time and we have got to do so much of it while up here in Massachusetts...life is good!

We got BOO-ed!

The cutest ever! We got BOO-ed! You get a little something from someone, in turn you do the same for two other people. Such a nice and thoughtful thing, Marek absolutely loved it! We are on the hunt, Happy Halloween to who ever we BOO!

No training wheels!

So today turned out to be a nice day after all, which means that we got to go outside and play while Lauren took her nap. So I'm out side talking with the neighbors and Marek decides to pick up the neighbors bike, get on it (it has not training wheels) and balance. After about a few minutes of balancing he peddles off!

My neighbor is like...Marek's riding the bike...I was excited but didn't want to get to excited and make him fall. Awesome! So he peddled around a few more times...another neighbor even gave him a smaller bike to practice on for the next few days and then we'll take the training wheels off his and see what happens. How exciting!

I do feel bad that daddy missed this experience...he was so sweet when he got home, he gave Marek hugs and kisses and told him he was proud of him...how sweet! They grow up so fast...my big boy... I am so proud of you and enjoy everything you experience! Thank you for being you!
