We rang in the new year in style with our best friends. There was plenty of laughter and cheers to go around. We will never forget how we just happened on a fantastic dinner with absolutely no plan and no reservation.....in the OLD PORT, on New Years Eve. Not sure why we weren't standing next to our spouses in this photo. All I can say is that is was COLD.
The kids visited the map store during vacation week, and had lunch with their cousins at Flatbread. Aside from that, we did a whole lot of nothing (except recovering on the couch from colds).
On Saturday we celebrated Grandpa's life. The ceremony was simple and beautiful with full military honors. What he would have wanted. We won't forget the simplicity of doing "as little as possible." We won't forget standing around Grandma's table listening to her stories, of travel, leaving the briefcase on top of the car, of their days working at the radio station when they set the transcript on fire. The handsome man who needed a radio license. Mom's visit to Mcgill. Grandma's day sitting in the back of the bus. It's the stories....oh the stories and the photos that mean the most to me.
Sunday......this girl totally rocked her all day ski lesson. Sang all the songs on the radio all the way home. She said " I did awesome".
Monday.......back to the grind of school and work and oh man, it's hard to get out of bed in this January Funk. A little sledding before school on this icy driveway and we were set to go! Happy Monday!
