The Pictures of Christmas Past (but just this last one)

Just in case you have been wondering, "what on earth have those crazy kids been up to these last couple of weeks?" here are some loverly photos to get you updated.

The Cottage at the Maine house after the first snow. It wasn't all that cold when we first got there, but Odelaly! did it get cold later. It was down to single digits. Crazy.

Ben in front of the Christmas tree. We managed to break three ornaments while we were there. I think Ben was a two and Sam was at one when we left. Sorry again, Mom.

Zach and Ben at the top of the Bunker Hill Monument in Boston. There are 294 steps. We carried the boys up all the way.

Katie and Sam going down the steps of the Bunker Hill Mounment. There are some of me at the top, but they were not very exactly pleasing to the eye. As I said, there are 294 steps. And we carried the boys up all the way.

We had a little Christmas before we left at our house. The boys got the hang of opening gifts pretty quickly.

Grammie pulling Ben , Sam, and cousin Jackson. That's Carina in the orange coat. We went sledding down this big groomed hill. Crazy fun, the boys were really cold by the end though. That's what happens when you throw off your gloves and fall in the snow.

Well, there's just a few photos. I'll probably sneak some old photos in here too in the next couple of days. It was so much fun to be up there. Though, sadly, Zach never did get his Moxy. Oh, well. There were a lot of whoopie pies though! Happy New Year everyone!
