Winter Fun!!

Winter is here!!  Dave and I took Sawyer to see the holiday lights in Washington Park this past weekend.  We took a horse drawn carriage ride through the park and looked at all the lights. It was a gorgeous snowy evening so we totally enjoyed ourselves.  Sawyer loved the lights and the horses even more.  

So pretty with the snow still falling!!

Before our ride... wish the horses were in the picture too!
After packing up the car with everyone's hats, coats, mittens, and blankets.. we get to the park and I forgot my own coat!!!  Good thing we brought lots of blankets.
    Love the first snow on the trees!

Thanksgiving 2009

We can't believe Thanksgiving has come and gone and Christmas is right around the corner. 

We enjoyed having John, Carol, Jana, Jason and Amy Zal with us for a week at Thanksgiving. Sawyer absolutely loves his cousins.  He misses them terribly!  

Sawyer continues to amaze us everyday with the things he has to say.  It's hard to believe that our little 2 year old can talk in complete sentences.  He is the light of our lives for sure.

Virginia Beach July 2009

We spent a week at Virginia Beach with Dave's parents and brothers family.  We all had a great time together and Sawyer loved playing with his cousins.  The weather was really great this year so we were able to spend most of every day on the beach.  

Happy to be on the beach

Memorial Day Weekend 2009

Memorial Day weekend was all about friends and our little family this year.  The weather was perfect and we enjoyed every minute of it.  We started the weekend off in New Hampshire with The Degroots, then spent the rest of the weekend back home with our family having lots of fun.
