Courtney's Bike Ride

It finally has turned warm, sort of, here in New England. We're still dropping to below freezing temperatures at night, but the days are warming up. Last Saturday Courtney popped her bike tire, which was the perfect opportunity to take off the training wheels.

Here she is on day 1 of learning to ride a bike without training wheels...

Harrison Dances

With the two girls in dance and a recital just around the corner, Harrison offers some interesting new moves with just as interesting titles.

Northeast pounded by snow

"Northeast pounded by snowy late-winter storm"

We
have just finished shoveling another "Nor'easter" here in Mass. This storm dumped about a foot of snow for us and has given the kids another snow day. It took me about 1.5 hours to get things cleared - thanks Jane and Emily for your help!

After a slow drive int
o work (arrived at 10am) I pulled up my window shade to see the following picture. Now, perhaps it's my recent day dreaming at work, but here's the ice images that I saw....


OK, so if you can't make out what it is I saw - stretch your imagination and you'll see some ducks, birds and penguins. Here's another one without the flash.




Sorry, that's what you get when I don't get the day off for a snow day!
