Boston Bound!

Yesterday, we were very excited to have my Sister in law, Jessica and our nephew join us in our trip to Boston to the Museum of Science.    We spent several hours looking at dinosaurs, and laws of gravity, and all sorts of fun, science-y stuff.   The kids had a blast.    The girls especially had a good time taking the T (Train) in!

Crossing the "sky walk" over the train tracks to get to the T

 

The girls still didn't know where we were going....but I don't think they seemed to care.   We were on the T!

Waiting for our connecting train

Matthew (our nephew) was having a great time too!

Watching chicks hatching from their eggs!   It was the first time in a long time that I saw the girls stay in one spot for more than 5 minutes.  (No exaggeration!)

Learning about light and reflection and refraction

Learning about shadows and light

We got a really nice treat while waiting for one of our trains, a small symphony from the Boston area with their instructor/teacher decided to just practice in the middle of the Orange Line.

Big Exciting News!

We have some exciting news to announce!   But, you'll just have to take a peek at the following video to see ;)

Baby Madore #3 arriving in November!

Feeling pretty well overall.   Definitely feeling the naps these days.  

A Lenten Journey

Yesterday Samantha participated in her Lenten pageant with her C.C.D class.    She played

the part of Mary, Mother of James.

Pelicans and Recycled Styrofoam

So Jeremy and I recently purchased a Pelican Case for our new flat screen for our photo booth.   For those who don't know, Pelican Cases are used by people to carry fragile equipment such as cameras, lenses and video equipment.    Whenever you purchase a Pelican, each case comes with sheets of very durable, cubed styrofoam.  This way, you can create your own custom case.

Jeremy had some of the cubed styrofoam left over and rather than just throw it away, he created some magnificent creations for the girls.  I shall now demonstrate what exactly he made.

Love Is Important

Samantha drew this before she headed to school this morning.    I of course didn't see it until I got back from bringing her to the bus stop.   

There are some days as a parent I don't feel that I'm doing it right, and then I see something like this:

Silly Clown

I have always had a fear of clowns.   Never liked them.   Never will.

But I see this cute little clown and I somehow am not afraid.

Carpool Pick Up Fun

If Sarah and I aren't taking selfies, then she's practicing her posing with her BFF Bovine, Moo Cow.
