The curse

(Kelley as a child)

Many years ago, I pronounced a curse.

"Maybe I can escape?" --Homewood Suites, Chesapeake VA

I said to Kelley:

"Is anyone watching?"

"Someday, you will have a child just like you!"

"Hello, This is 911. What is your emergency?"

And guess what?

"Don't I look like Grammie?"

It worked!

Time Out for Women, Philly style

This trip was awesome! A most excellent weekend! So fun! Here's a couple of pics, but they just don't tell the whole exciting story.


It was a LOOOONG car ride down (think forgotten items, construction delays, lots of holiday traffic) and an even longer ride home (think breaking down in NYC!) Still it was all worth it! An inspirational and motivational day, lots of attention for sweet baby Lillian, and Chubby's Cheesesteaks. Family and friends rounded out the trip and we had a ball.

Happy Birthday my little Hurri-Kane!

23 years ago there was a Hurricane on September 27th - Hurricane Gloria. It wasn't the only Hurri-Kane to hit New Hampshire that fateful night.
And now, 23 years later, we have another hurricane headed our way. Who says history doesn't repeat itself. Only this time it is Hurricane Kyle and it looks like it might graze Maine, but we won't get much but rain.
Happy Happy Birthday Heather Dear!

Photo Shoot

We took a trip to Kiddie Kandids on Saturday to capture the fun...

What a beautiful group. Xander, surrounded by beautiful women!The three troublemakers.

Olivia was content.

Alexander loved this bench.

How long do you think it took us to get this shot of Lil?

Hooray for Heather!

Kudos to Heather! She is now teaching at a private school in Park City, Utah - The Colby School. This is an awesome opportunity for her - go to the link to visit their website. The Colby School features the Tribes Learning Community. Heather will be teaching Physical Education to a small student body of less than 200 students grades K-8. Her curriculum will include fun things like cross country skiing!

Good for you Heather! That piece of paper is paying off!
