Family Day 2014

Six years ago today our little miracle became legally part of our family.  We now celebrate this special day with a focus on the entire family. 
 
My little miracles just chillin' together!
This is my life now - I have 3 students.  Eli attends preschool at MIT 2 days a week.  James continues to love his kindergarten class.  Tobias is also enjoying his studies.

For MLK Jr day the kids in James' class wrote their own dreams.  James' dream is "My family are having a picnic."  Guess which one is me?  Love the curls!

Last weekend we tried ice skating for the first time.  Fun way to spend the day but don't expect to see any of us in the 2018 Winter Olympics!

The boys grabbing a bit to eat at the Boston Common, beneath the Learning statue.

James' school had a half day earlier this week.  Since it was a day when Eli was in school, James and I went for a long walk and snuck in a movie.
 To celebrate Family Day we went to Boston's Museum of Fine Arts.  It was a great way to spend the day. 
James' favorite piece of art was a this large statue.

Checking out some Egyptian antiquities.

Pointing out the hieroglyphics.

Learning about Greek vases.

Looking at the paintings which surprisingly James didn't really get in to. 

James really seemed to enjoy the more abstract art.  Here is James explaining this painting of trees and water to Eli.  By the way, I didn't see the trees either.  But according to write up, James was right! 


There were a couple of fun activities for the kids.  Here are the boys working together to make a paint with a block print.

The boys also made bird beaks. 

Of course we had to check out the Navy stuff at the art museum.  The sheer scale of this painting was awe inspiring.

We finished the day with some homemade pizzas. 
Happy Family Day!
