And but do we have a lot to cover. But what better way to use a SNOW DAY! It’s basketball season and Shea is having a blast. Cole won the Southampton spelling bee! Beyond proud of this kid! Cole also won the Macaroni and Cheese challenge. Over 260 teams competed all over NY AND Cole’s […]

Let’s think of this like a Christmas in April. Two of my favorite months! I love love love the Christmas holiday time and we try to immerse ourselves in the tradition and spirit. But, my horrible attention span has really gotten the best of me lately and I failed to put those special memories up […]

Well, Cole.turned.13. 13! Coley, it’s not always easy but it’s always worth it. Tween and teen years are tough to navigate. We’ve hit some bumps for sure but I am so proud of you! You are so smart. School is such an easy endeavor for you and appreciate how important it is to you to […]

September: so many sports and school started. Cole started middle school for all this year and LOVED it. Loved it! October : more football! Shea would play flag football every day if he could. We had a visit from Aunt Allison! The boys and I did a little trip to Saugerties and Sleepy Hollow to […]

August was jam packed. Cole continued on his fishing journey. It’s actually the cutest hobby he picked up and I love that it gets him outside and in some really pretty nature. He also got to go on the boat with his Uncle AJ and they both did pretty well there too. We did some […]

July. Not sure how that month came and went so fast. My least favorite thing about summer is the speed in which it flies by. We were still in Mystic for the first week of July and my parents came to visit there for a few days at the end too. Cole was on All-Stars […]

I’m slightly overwhelmed here. I’m going to attempt to catch up on here in small bites. Let’s start with June. We celebrated my mom’s birthday at the start. The school year slowly came to an end and so did baseball for Shea. The day after school was done, we headed right to Connecticut for Cole’s […]

Spring is one of my favorite seasons. The weather is *supposed to be* mild and all the flowers make our familiar settings a little bit prettier even if only for a short time. The baseball gloves come out in full force and many of our evenings include time at a field or two. Schools slowly […]

My dear Shea, A very happy birthday to you. I don’t think I’m alone in thinking you are like a little ray of sunshine. You are almost always in a happy mood and draw people in with your cutest smile. You find fun in the simplest things and it’s so joyful watching you just going […]

Christmas and New Year’s and then Groundhog’s Day and then Valentine’s Day. I haven’t forgotten any of them! And I love them all! And I’ve still put so much into each of them… well except for Groundhog’s Day to be honest. We did go see the groundhog once or twice when it fell on a […]
