    Scenes from MIT

    Swim meet – long day followed by quite a full moon. Ok the last one is not from MIT.. but had to show that moon again.

  • Birthday Turkey

    Birthday Turkey

    Born on Black Friday, cursed with revolving Thanksgiving Birthdays! Well not a curse, just less likely to have a birthday burrito. ABOVE, a gift from the dog – not in a green bag. Peanut butter banana treat from TJoes – high end stuff! Below – two turkey hats are better than one!

  • Bed Upgrade

    Bed Upgrade

    Noah’s crib-converted to full bed has finally been retired. Got this number from Wayfair – built in shelves, power, customizable lighting and underbed storage. And a new pillow and mattress. Not too shabby for a 12yr old.

  • Into The Woods

    Into The Woods

    We camped! It was a nice place. Marshmallows were had and had a Sasquatch sighting

  • Dog Knows

    Dog Knows

    Noah was away at camp for 2 weeks – Imara either enjoyed access to the plush rug, or stood there wondering where he was. Who nose!

  • Dr. Sven!

    Dr. Sven!

    Dr. Sven Supplies is Noah’s orthodontist. With video games installed in the waiting room, you could say this guy knows his audience! Of course sometimes they are not working, which is apparent by some body language here.

  • Crane Beach Dune

    Crane Beach Dune

    To access Crane Beach, there’s a lengthy wooden walkway over the dunes. Much like the dunes at most beaches, they are off limits – protecting the beach from erosion as well as the many animals that reside in these areas. As we left the beach and I took the photo above, there was of course…

  • Another Late Bloomer

    Another Late Bloomer

    This hydrangea was planted when Noah was born – and as he hits 12, it might be the best year yet for this shrub. Though, I’ve read that the mild winter has allowed almost all hydrangeas to have spectacular blooms this year. Back to my point. Most bloomed in June. As I write this post…

  • Big 12

    Big 12

    Noah’s running out of space on his ice cream pie! He began the day as such- Then spent the whole day at an indoor water park with friends. It was nuts. Fun fact, theres a huge old rhododendron in the back yard that almost always waits til 6/23 to bloom. All the other ones in…

  • Moving On

    Moving On

    Not quite a ‘graduation’ but the ‘moving on ceremony’ for the CT Douglas School happened 2 days before the last day of school. Don’t ask me why. It was followed by a grand ‘reception’ in one of the gyms, with some of the year’s projects on display. One of which was a massive catalog of…

  • End of an Era – Kinda

    End of an Era – Kinda

    Noah’s 6th grade year wrapped up with some non school days, so he celebrated .. in style? And heads off to junior high next school year. I still am perplexed at K-6 as a school but what do I know. Like why did I ask “why are you wearing all that?”..

  • A day at the races

    A day at the races

    This Sunday was spent two ways. In the morning, Willy had soccer in the pouring rain – and they won! It was the 3rd of 4 games in one weekend. Here’s Willy pressuring the goalie. Afternoon, Noah had a swim qualifier at Regis College – which went on long enough that it was a beautiful…
