A Neighborhood Sledfest

Date February 10, 2010

Last weekend — starting on Friday, actually — we got just over a foot of snow. That was enough to make for plenty of outdoor activity, yet not so much as to keep us truly snowbound at home. On Saturday after lunch, Julie headed down to the end of our street with our kids and […]

Julie on the Farm

Date February 6, 2010

Continuing the theme of some pictures from our surprisingly snow-filled trip to West Virginia last weekend with pictures of Julie… Hanging out with Molly down by the creek Pondering the winter scene With a large icicle Walking back to the farmhouse with her dad

Alana on the Farm

Date February 2, 2010

Alana headed outside a couple of times to “clean the snow off of Mommy’s car,” but, for the most part, she stayed inside — Grandma Pam is entirely too much of a draw, especially in sub-20 degree weather. On Saturday afternoon, she played some checkers with Julie: She’s totally up for a little smack-talk after […]

Molly Goes Sledding

Date January 31, 2010

We headed to West Virginia for the weekend and were surprised when it snowed for most of the day on Saturday. Pleasantly surprised! The boys barely waited until the ground was covered before heading out to slide down the hill, despite the 12-degree weather. Julie got the idea to give Molly a ride down the […]

Snow Tubing at 15 degrees

Date January 12, 2010

While my parents were here, we made the 45-minute trip out to Mad River Mountain for some snow tubing. It wasn’t very crowded, despite it being a sunny Sunday. Probably because the locals know that 15 degrees is awfully cold weather to be racing down a hill. Our next-door neighbors, the Homons, also made the […]

Thanksgiving in the Great Outdoors

Date November 27, 2009

We’ve been in Ohio for over two years now…and haven’t gone camping since we moved! That’s hard to believe, but it’s also easy to believe — the kids are getting to an age where they’ve got weekend commitments of one sort or another quite often, and, on 3-day and 4-day weekends when we would have […]

Hello? Is This Thing Still On?

Date November 17, 2009

Three weeks since we got a post up. Busy times: Minor remodel (paint, drywall, new lighting, new pictures) to our first floor half-bath — Julie (and me…because who doesn’t jump at the chance to hang drywall on a ceiling and tape and float it?) Trip to the Columbus Zoo — whole family (“Forced Family Fun,” […]

Mike and Matt’s Wedding

Date September 21, 2009

Julie and I just got back from a Boston vacation planned around the Salem wedding of Mike Dumbroski and Matt Woodward. We had a ball, and Marilyn survived watching all three kids for five days! This post just covers the wedding. It was a relatively small affair, but the fates aligned such that a good […]

Final Diving Days of the Summer

Date September 9, 2009

Our weather has been a little goofy over the past few weeks — wet/cool at the wrong times — which has kept Julie from getting her final fix of diving in for the summer. She’s convinced she was working her way up to doing a double-flip…which her husband and both sons are eager to see! […]
