Sunny day

After the sunny day we had today - it made me eager for spring & summer.  Found these pictures of Max from last summer at Seabrook - it made me smile.

Sending warm thoughts your way!  

Ice Skating

After a two year hiatus, Maisie is back in ice skating lessons.  It took her one lesson to get back into the swing of things.  Now she is off and skating - it's like she never took a break!

Max is in his first session of lessons and is not as excited as Maisie.  He is doing well and is a quick learner.  Today he had his third lesson and is running on the ice and gliding.  He says that he isn't taking lessons anymore - but we will see.....

Either way - it's something they can do together - and they are pretty darn cute to boot.  

Date with the dinosaurs

Max and I had a date - a real date - I was even allowed to call it a date today - at the NKY Convention Center. Today we "Discovered the Dinosaurs". Half of the convention center was dinosaur displays. Real looking dinosaurs - he was grinning ear to ear. The other half was set up with the money-makers. So we mined for gems (twice), panned for fossils, excavated dinosaur bones and jumped and played in the "in-float-ables". We ended the day with a purse-ful of treasures and day of memories.

Max and the triceratops. They were one of his favorites.

The T.Rex - his VERY favorite!

Max and the fossil castings of the dinosaur prints.

Mining for gems - so much fun we had to do it twice!
