Texas Sunset
We flew Manchester to Orlando, then to Houston and finally to El Paso yesterday and were only delayed about 20 min total. We followed that up with about a 4 hour drive to Marfa, TX to set us up for this morning. It’s worth noting that we also found a slightly seedy Mexican restaurant for…

This has been an extremely busy month or so, which accounts for my lack of blog posts in that timeframe. I don’t even think I have time to do this one, but there have been so many fun and crazy moments with Helena and of course Christine that I feel like I need to write…
Read MoreFirst Date
Today is Helena’s 20 month birthday, which is exciting enough in and of itself. But even more exiting is that I went on my first date with another girl since getting married just the other day. I took her to five guys burgers and Fries and she had the grilled cheese and loved it! She…

It’s been a great month with our little Lena. We discovered pig tails (to die for cute!!!), we learned to sleep past 4:30am (Hooray!!) and, graduated from a high chair to a booster seat. She actually told us “No, No Chair!” referring to the high chair and pretty much forced our hand. But she is…

You actually have Christine to thank for that. Here’s a link to the January 2011 pictures: SmugMug – January 2011 In other news, our kitchen is really coming together.…
Read MoreKitchen Project – Weeks 2-3
Weeks 2-3 were relatively uneventful as not too much noticeably changed since the previous week aside from the refacing going from in progress to completed. But that doesn’t mean that nothing noteworthy happened! The most exciting thing for me was the removal of what we like to call in the family “Helena’s Inheritance”. If you…
Read MoreKitchen Project – Week 1 – 2
Well, as we could have guessed and should have known the kitchen is coming together slower than we had hoped and slower than we were promised. Has anyone ever hired a contractor that was accurate with their time estimates? The first couple weeks of the project have mostly involved taking things apart and sanding down…

In case you missed it, we posted October pictures a couple weeks ago. Seriously this is the first moment I’ve had to even consider posting a blog. The pics are at the link below… October 2010 – SmugMug Helena is doing absolutely amazing. She is loving her new classroom at Daycare. Even though she is…
Read MoreGreat Birthday Weekend for CK
Last weekend was Christine’s birthday, as many of you may know, and she decided that a trip to the beach was in order since we could not remember the last time we had been (at least in New Hampshire). She picked an amazing day to go weatherwise. Not only was it a beautiful sunny day,…
