March in pictures

Our March consisted of Barnaby arriving, a quick one night trip to my parents, Holderness School's Special Programs, The New England J2 Championships, Spring Break, a night in Jackson with friends,  a big snow storm and finishing with Easter weekend at my parents...also a few milestone Hannah moved into a big bed, Mabel is out of diapers at night and Hannah is out of them during naps.  There was a lot of working, skiing, eating, hanging out, and general non-normalise.  It was great and we are left with many memories.  We all had a great winter with the biggest highlight for me was alpine skiing with the girls every week.  It's been a very windy year so far and I am excited for it to blow in Spring and Summer.  Wow I can't believe it is April.  We are on the home stretch of the 2012-2013 school year and are looking forward to getting on our bikes and hiking and spending many many days at Squam!

 Took Barnaby up our favorite hike Rattlesnake before the big snowstorm.


 Hannah's big girl bed.   The frame for the bed is coming soon. 

 We had a fun dinner with the Lewis's...while we ate dinner the kids got in the PJ's and listened to stories on my old tape player.

 Landgrove Town Hall seesaw....so cool...these girls weigh about the same so they had fun.  Pretty cool watching them play on it since I have memories of playing on it when I was little.
 There was about 2 feet of snow for the egg hunt but luckily it was crust and we could all walk on it.
 Stopping to check what's in the eggs.

Skiing with friends
Sledding party with cupcakes for all

And lots of playing in between everything.
Fast asleep by 8

The 3 S's...Skiing, Sledding and Skating!

A long weekend here at Holderness, a Nor'easter and some sun made for so good times outside.  Thanks mother nature...perfect timing! 

 Bella showing her stride (and smile) during our walk at Quincy Bog.

 Mabel making her way along.
 Hannah exploring.
 My girls.
 This was an attempt at a family picture but Hannah wanted nothing to do with it!
 This is how we get around most of the time...the girls are getting a little tight in there as they are growing like crazy...the heavy winter clothes don't help either!
 There is a little pond on campus called Frog Pond and they clear it for skating...it awesome and more my style then the rink!
 Hannah taking her turn with the skates.
 We had a good crew out there and a beautiful sunset.
 Dad was excited!
 Mabel all set and ready to go home after enough falls for both her and me.
Crawling is the safest :)

 Hannah the little scralper.
 There's Mabel owning it by herself...she's the far right.

 Schralping.
 Bombs away!

 Yay a family picture!
 This was a cool giraffe to ski around at Bretton Woods.

 They had fun....

And then got tired!
