Bowling with Grandpa and Leo

The boys at lunch.

Leo perfecting his shot-put bowling throw

I love the boys in the background of this shot.

Check out Grandpa’s concentration! He had so much fun, I wouldn’t be surprised if he becomes a regular at the Acton Bowledrome!

soccer time

not the best pictures, but Nana and Grandad we wanted to give you a sense of Finn’s soccer. Above he shoots goals while Allan is in the “monkey house” and below they run the obstacle course.

thanks for the cd Auntie Jenny!

Finn loves the new cd! Thank you!

sticky bun breakfast

Sticky bun and peppermint tea with Silky, Light, and Alibi at A&J King this morning.

And a nice refreshing glass of milk!

A clever place to store your straw.

Seal on Dane Street Beach

There’s a seal on Dane Street Beach, apparently there since Tuesday.

This is a “normal” occurrence, apparently they come up for a “rest”

I was using my super zoom, I didn’t really get this close! Although I am surprised that the beach is not closed. There are two small signs up asking to “please not disturb him” but from the footprints in the snow, it’s clear people are getting really close. 

I mean, how could you resist that face?

even in the snow…

 

yup – tractor works even in the snow!

Hooray for Thea!

We had a great visit with Katie, Dean and Thea this weekend. Thanks so much for coming to visit us!

Thea relaxing with Dean after breakfast

Finn has suddenly gone off his “baby brother only” streak, conceding that having a baby sister would be quite wonderful! So thank you Thea!

Fun at the Peabody Essex Museum

Story time

Auntie Kristen’s Chocolate Batons

Kristen made me some very delicious treats for my birthday. As you can see, they were very chocolatey and enjoyed by all!

A chocolate birthday kiss.

YUMMY!

My boys

We celebrated my birthday this evening with a delicious carrot cake that Finn and Allan spent “all day” making!

The big 21!

The proud bakers

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Cake Time!

I love Mum and Dad’s expressions in this photo!

Can’t wait to dig in!
