Happy Easter!

Happy Easter! This picture makes me giggle - James is always doing something funny. He has a great personality. Bat? Bunny? Or boy?


Tobias and James are enjoying our backyard and the beautiful weather. Tobias is teaching James how to grow a garden. First they built the garden.

Then they planted their seeds in little pots inside and waited for the seeds to grow. James would get excited every morning to see how big his plants were growing.Once the plants were large enough they transplanted them outside to the garden. James has quite the green thumb and is growing sunflowers, corn, peas, beans, lettuce, tomatoes, and zucchini.


In between the gardening, James is also enjoying the new sandbox Tobias built for him. Fun times with his buddies playing and building in the backyard.


To celebrate Easter James participated in an Easter Egg Hunt the base chapel hosted for the kids. James loved to gather up all the eggs!


Look at all those eggs! Nice job James!

We also took some time to dye eggs. James so careful and really enjoyed the experience.

This morning James was excited about more Easter treats.




After a wonderful celebration of Easter at church we went to brunch, took a nap, and continued to enjoy a lovely day by bike riding. James is a fast learner, but still prefers to run than to ride his bike - he's a much faster runner... for now! Happy Easter.

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!   Zoom zoom zoom

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!  ...

Winter in Boston

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! The 2014 Walters Family Christmas picture! My two cuti...
