Jingle bells

Wonderful Weekend

Little Mr. Farwell was super fun (and willing to be photographed) this weekend.  Here are a few shots. 

SNOW!  Little Mr. Farwell enjoyed a walk in the winter wonderful of our backyard.  Until the snow got into his boots.

Fun dinner party with our cooking group, including four kiddos.  Little G on the left is a year younger than Little Mr. Farwell and cute as can be.

2 year old birthday party, and a chance to roll Mommy around.

More birthday party fun

Not this weekend, but a cute picture of the little guy in the high school gym.  He's got a lot of growing to do before he's ready to start dunking.

So very, very thankful . . .

for a wonderful trip to California, for a toddler who travels well, for wrestling with cousins, for a delicious Thanksgiving dinner, for two fabulous nieces, for the chance to put our toes in the Pacific ocean, for friends in Redwood City....

O, Canada!

We had a terrific week up in Nova Scotia in mid-September.  More boats, trucks and birds than Little Mr. Farwell could count--all to his delight!
