anniversary weekend/boston

We went to Boston for our anniversary and to spend St. Patrick's Day with some great friends!

wicked

Clay got me tickets to see WICKED on Broadway in NYC for our anniversary. He is not big into musicals so I took my Mom! We had a great time in the city and taking the train home was neat too! I still can't believe how close we are to NYC and what amazing opportunities we have to do here!

dishes

She is taking after her Mother! She loves to clean up with Mommy!!!!
The only 5 year old I know who loves to make her bed in morning and keep her room clean! I caught her the other day folding her clothes in her closet!!!! Makes me SO PROUD.

uc game

What an opportunity! We got to watch Clay's alma mater play in NYC at the MSG (Madison Square Gardens). It was so cool to walk through Time Square to watch our favorite team play basket ball.

10 years

It feels like yesterday I was marrying my best friend on March 16th, 2002! Loved the past 10 years with Clay and can't wait to spend many more years together!

hartford childrens museum

Once again we are embracing all there is to offer around us! We took the kids to the Hartford Children's Museum. Vera loved the dinosaur exhibit and Charlie loved the fight simulator!

to the hotel we go....

Daddy's 2nd home seems to be hotels these days... The kids love it when they get to stay in one with him!!!!

pinkalicious

Girls day out! Pinkalicious at a great theatre down the street!

sammy

my cousin, sammy had to come up to Connecticut for business and it happened to be 5 miles away from us! So fun seeing her and crazy to think my baby cousin is having a baby!!! Vera doesn't get the opportunity to play with high heels (mommy hates them now) so she was so excited to play with Sammy's!

homework

I just loved this picture.... I'm sure this is the first of many pictures of her doing her homework...

ninja V

lyman orchards

Once again taking in the amazing things this place has to offer! We took the kids to Lyman Orchards for the winter fest. We got to see ice sculpture making, dog sledding, horse carriages and yummy food!

lil aviator

Clay found this picture of himself when he was in town visiting his Nana. Crazy how he 1. turned out to be an aviator and 2. how much his son looks like him!!!
