Fall is Here!

James enjoyed a great birthday and Halloween celebration with my roommate from the Academy and her husband!
This is a bit late as winter is almost here!  Here are some great pictures from our Fall adventures - including the local county fair, attending a friend's wedding, a trip to Florida, and Halloween. 
My Halloween Dynamic Duo - Batman and Robin!
James loves to "read."  He loves all super heroes.
 
Me and the boys going for a walk!

While in Florida we enjoyed a wonderful visit with Grandpa and Grandma Sunshine!

The remnants of Hurricane Sandy were still in Jacksonville.  We didn't actually venture on to the beach, but we were close enough to watch the waves.

Aunt Teri and James baked special birthday cupcakes that James was able to share them with his classmates.

Tasty birthday cupcakes - they were multicolored with sprinkles on top!  Delish!

Getting ready for the big corn maze - Tobias was our navigator and we were out of the maze in record time.


James and his buddy, Abby, really enjoyed themselves!

Playing in the corn box!

Just a quick picture of Elias - he loves balls and anything with buttons.

A fun family campout in the living room!

We attended our local county fair.  It was so much fun!  Lots to see and a great way to welcome Fall!

Love this picture of my guys!

Our babies sure do know how to party.  Here's another picture of James and Abby.

Mommy and her handsome young man!

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...
