March madness!

Well - we're counting down the last days of winter and anxious for spring to come around here. Basketball is done and we're waiting for the start of baseball for Cole. Hayley will be getting back to soccer again too -- she's excited to regroup with her team... The Cheetah Girls! :) She's also continuing figure skating and swimming as well.

We've had a fun couple of weeks. This past weekend the boys got to take in a Flyers hockey game in Philadelphia and so Hayley and mom had a fun "girls day" and we're joined by Lily too! We had lunch and did some shopping at the mall. The girls got new dresses for spring and new princess PJs.

Monday was Sammy's 10th birthday. Can't believe it's been 10 years. We're also wishing Kirk, Grandmom, friend Andrew, and Aunt Rebekah happy birthdays as well. Enjoy the pictures!



We're psyched that the Terps made it to the tournament. Fear the turtle!

Hittin' the slopes again!

We had a great ski week last week in New Hampshire. We had fun seeing Aunt Suzanne, Uncle Peter and Claire for a brief visit on Saturday -- and we hit the slopes early Sunday. Monday was an off day since NH got 17 inches of new snow and pretty high winds. Tuesday we had a great time in the powder though - and enjoyed 2 more days as well. The skiing was great and we were amazed by how quickly Hayley progressed in just 4 days! Too bad that will be it until next year!

Now we're back home and enjoying 8 inches of snow here -- but hoping that spring will be coming soon. Enjoy the few pictures from the trip. Mom managed to forget the camera everyday - so no pictures of skiing. Sorry.

Hayley found a stray pair of reading glasses and enjoyed walking around with them on one day.
