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.

A quick three years went by, but M and C made it back to London! Unfortunately the whole family couldn’t come, but we brought back plenty of Thornton’s and Cadbury chocolate to make up for it. We had a quiet New Years Eve, and tried to soak up as much holiday-themed fun and treats as…
Christmas Fun 2018
It was another wonderful, chaotic Christmas filled with a lot of highs and perhaps a few tantrums. There were Lego kits, Matchbox cars, tons of Mickey and lots of surprises from Santa and throughout the day! It went by in a flash!
