Sunday River Day 2/3

Day two at Sunday River started with Rich moving up to the yellow ski school class.  Although this meant that they took him up the chairlift, he still got to ride the wagon behind the snowmobile most of the day.  I am sure that this part was just as fun as the actual skiing for a 4 year old boy.  After just two days, Rich is skiing the green circles on his own, and he and I got to take our first run together with him skiing the entire run on his own from the top of the chairlift.
Angela went to another day of her ski school (no skiing, just playing) and Donna and I got to ski on our own for a second day.  We had done this just once in the last four years so it was very nice to get out on the mountain together again.  We finished off this great day with a family ride up the chondula. 
The next day we went for a snowshoe hike before we left Maine.  It was a beautiful late winter day for a walk in the woods and Rich got to use his new snowshoes while Angela got to ride on my back.  We used to cover a lot more trail when Rich was also carried, but this was more fun.  I good end to a great vacation.  Won't be our last ski trip.

Oh trust me, the Poop Loop wasn't lost on the 4 year old! It was probably the best part of the hike. It is called that because it is the trail the dogs are allowed on!

Singing the ABC's

So I finally got it on camera although it isn't his best effort. For those of you who have been around us recently, you know how Rich sings the ABC song ALL DAY LONG. It is obviously his favorite song and he is really good at it! In this video he misses a lot of the letters because he does not want to be taped. But he literally knows all the letters and the ending. I guess he was developing his verbal skills when he was sitting on his bottom for all those months NOT crawling. This was taken this morning and I had to bribe his with a cookie. It was only 9 am, but it was the only way I could get him to do it for the camera.

An absolutely beautiful day for my Angela Jane!  She looked absolutely gorgeous and she couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.  She celebrated with her family and then with friends who feel like family now.  We are truly blessed! Brunch with family at Monica's and then a bbq at the Crocini's. How cute is she with her bbf's?!?!?!

Celtics courtside!!

Image
At 5:00 Chris got a call from a customer (who happens to live across the street), asking if we wanted his seats for the pre-season Celtics game tonight.  Of course we do!  Yes, it was the first game of the World Series and the Red Sox were playing, but you still can't beat going to a game. Chris had a feeling this guy had good seats, but when we arrived at Row A the kids were ecstatic.  Courtside, directly behind the players seats!  It was so awesome!   They were just feet from us and they were huge.  We could hear the plays they were going to run and then watched them run them.  Angela didn't love the seats because we were almost too close and she had trouble seeing over the 6'7" players!  The game was on ESPN and we were so close to the court that we were also on TV a lot.  My Mom was able to tell me what we were wearing because she watched it.  I found a quick link below.  You can see how close we were. ...
