Madrinha and the Girls

Ana and the girls came over this afternoon to help me out around the house a little and give us some company. While the kids played we (Ana) cleaned up the kitchen which needed a good cleaning.

Everyone had a good time and at 6 Dylan came up to me passed out after going the whole day without a nap. Hope he sleeps through the night but that might be asking for too much.

TMI

Baskets

On our last day in Vermont Karli and I took Parker to Basketville in Putney, VT while Ty stayed home with Dylan and Brennan. They had lots and lots of lovely handmade baskets of every size along with, wicker everything, nostalgia stuff, baking supplies and ingredients, jams and jellies and can't forget toys and Vermont famous maple. Everything decently priced.

Bought Dylan a small toy train set and Tyler a apple core remover. Plus they had wine tasting and I bought one bottle for me and one sparkling cider for Ty.

Cold and Traffic

We went up to Vermont for the weekend. We left Saturday and came home just now as I had off from work today for MLK. We didn't look at the weather ahead of time before leaving today and forgot it was a Monday so we hit traffic everywhere!! Otherwise it was a nice weekend and here are pics of the boys.

Next time we go up it'll be warmer out. It was so cold up there!! Not for me! Sa

Lunch Boxes

At the Toy Museum, they had a large lunch box collection. Some I even had when I was a kid. Here are a couple I liked best or knew Ty would enjoy seeing.

Very cool!

Cards and Toys

This morning I went out to Quechee Gorge to take some pictures while the boys stayed warm at the hotel. The Gorge was 10 min away. After I took my pictures of the Gorge (those will come later), I went to the village (shops) which included wine shop, country store, Yankee candle, antique mall & toy museum. I walked around the stores even the antique mall. I was killing time and what intrigued me the most were the collection of sports memorabilia.

Had no interest in the rest but it was pretty big. Then I headed up to the toy museum. Very cool and lots of toys I played with when I was a kid.

Going through the museum brought back great memories. Could've bought some of the stuff. Do you see anything from your childhood?

Sour Face



We had dinner in New Hampshire at a Hibachi restaurant called Koto. I was talking to Karli when Dylan tried the lemon.
