It was a first – and likely a last – but we managed to have our own private egg hunt at Ticonderoga Farms! A dreary morning kept other families away, so we had the whole place to ourselves – including pedal carts, a jumpy pillow, slides, a hayride and – of course – a hunt…
Another Season to Play Ball!
Compared with last year, it was a gorgeous opening day for Arlington Little League as the Mets took on the Cardinals. Colin had three at bats with some solid hits, and played the field well. Here’s to a great season!
Fun in the FL Sun!
After we took in a little springtime baseball, we settled into our hotel for the weekend, and never left! We enjoyed the pool, the beach, s’mores and a pirate show – with perfect weather to negate our very cold trip in January!
Spring Ball!
Taking full advantage of a school day off, 3/4 of the family went south for some sun and warmth in Florida. Some of us had our second springtime baseball experience, and all of our first at Ed Smith Stadium as the Orioles hosted the Red Sox. It felt great after many, many weeks of cold…
Great Wolf 2019!
For the sixth year in a row, the family ventured to Williamsburg to warm up at Great Wolf Lodge’s 84-degree water park. It was O’s “awakening” year, as he got into everything – from waves to slides to shooting water from all directions. While it was a very fun stay, it was far from sedentary,…
Monster Jam!
Always up for a new adventure, the family headed to Monster Jam to watch some trucks do loud and amazing tricks. There were tricks, crashes, wipe outs and even a fire to entertain for an afternoon!
Snow!
While this winter has been pretty tough with school delays and closures, some moments of fun on a snow day can negate some of that inconvenience! Here were some highlights from our snow day in January, when we took full advantage of our driveway as a sledding hill.
FL Fun – Part 2
We had an action-packed weekend with grandparents during a quick, chilly trip to central Florida. But on our last day, we ventured out on our own to visit new fishy and furry friends at the marine aquarium before heading back home – to single-digit temperatures!
FL Fun – Part 1
In an attempt to briefly escape the cold, we ventured south to Florida for the weekend. And while it wasn’t exactly warm the whole time, it was a solid 30 degrees warmer than home, so much appreciated, if even for a few days. Our first two days were filled with grandparents, pirates and playgrounds, and…
