Aunt Marthaa's Wedding

We've had a great month. A busy month, but a great month. The highlight was definitely going to Aunt Marthaa's wedding in California. It was a short weekend trip, but it was still a lot of fun.

Here is James reading to Aunt Teri on the flight to Aunt Marthaa's wedding.

James was a trooper... for the most part. Here he is complaining about how he doesn't like his penguin suit.

James' favorite part of the wedding was playing with Chadd's iphone light sab.

My favorite part was seeing my family. Here's a picture of Jill Mama, Grandpa Mel, and Aunt Marthaa.

I also enjoyed seeing my friends. Here I am with my best friends, Jill and Stephanie.

Before we headed out for Aunt Marthaa's Wedding we practiced our smiles for the camera. James is getting the hang of the concept of smiling at the camera when someone says "say cheese."

When we got back James stayed at home on Monday to recuperate. Therefore he went swimming with Aunt Teri. Here he is showing off his skill of swimming by himself with floaties.

Fast as the Flash

The boys have a need for speed! Recently James and Eli built Pine Wood derby cars to compete in the James' Boy Scout troop. In the beginning... We did some scholarly research to prepare. Thank you YouTube! My step-dad, AKA Pawpaw was a big help and taught James to use power tools. Sanding is always fun! James designed and built his car with minimal assistance. Spray paint is always fun. Added weights to make it as heavy as the rules allowed. The finished products! The race was a lot of fun! James didn't win but he worked really hard and was really proud of his car. While his derby car wasn't the fastest, James was the fastest in a recent track race. My future Olympic sprinter!

M-I-C-K-E-Y and a bunch of other fun stuff

Everyone grab their Mickey Ears! We just returned from a wonderful vacation to Walt Disney World. We flew down to FL from MA, my sister and her beautiful family and my aunt and cousin all flew from CA, and my mom traveled from MO! All 11 of us stayed in one beautiful villa right on the Walt Disney property and had a great time. We celebrated JillMama's 60th birthday in style. We also celebrated my nephew's 2nd birthday while in WDW! Everyone had a great time! We celebrated Halloween a little early at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party! Can you tell we're the Avengers!?! Eli was the Incredible Hulk, Tobias was Tony Stark (AKA Iron Man), James was Captain America, and I was Black Widow. By the end of the night, the Incredible Hulk was done, but still really cute! Gabe (age 4) and James got along great! Elias and Gavin (also 2) were fast friends too. Fun times on a ride with my little man! Rrrr Matey! ...

Happy February! I can't believe I haven't updated since November when we've had such an exciting couple of months! Our Lego family for Christmas 2014 designed by James! There are a lot of firsts and developmental milestones in first grade! James finished his first chapter book over the Christmas break! So proud of him - he is reading above grade level. James also remains very active with track and is working with his gym teacher to start a running club at his elementary school! This was a fun assignment for the entire family. Once he completed the assignment, James presented it to his class. We did family Christmas pictures this year with a great photographer. We met at Minute Man National Park - where Paul Revere was captured- and had fun taking pictures together. I worked the night before and it was cold out, but the pictures still turned out great!
