Playdate with Ethan

Ethan (one of Mateo's classmates) came over after school one day - the boys mostly played outside, but took a break for cookies, too. At the end of the day, their feet were soaked!

MapleFest

Kevin took Mateo to MapleFest this year - they enjoyed free pancakes, a petting zoo, and - hey, what's that guy doing standing in that giant kettle?! Oh, and they brought home a half gallon of local maple syrup - divine.

Cookies & Cocktails

I spent a Sunday afternoon baking cookies, drinking wine and catching up with my very good friends Mary and Lisa. They both have some positive things happening in their lives and I couldn't be happier for them! xoxo

100 Days

Mateo has been in school for 100 days! (In all fairness he's had some absences, but still...)

I Heart You

I just love this picture. Mateo found a "heart" in a big bag of puff corn.

Old Friends, New Friends

Dan & Joe visited after a too-long dry spell and brought their grandson, Aiden, along. Mateo adored Aiden - after they left he said he wished he was part of our family. We got Aiden all sugared up (note the green tongue) just before they hit the road ;)

Sick Day

All of us had the "stomach flu" this week - what a drag.
