Noah Cardiel Holt | My life according to other people

Almost a month ago now.. in NH, on Noah’s birthday.

Noah watches “My Pretty Pony” and talks about it so Kate got him a few of the ponies, when he opened it he said “but Mom.. these are for girls” as he played with them.

For his birthday, Nana and Grampa Holt wanted to take Noah to Santa’s Village.

Growing.

3-D theater.

This was a fast ride that Noah wanted to go on, and then reconsidered.

Aunt Mindy helped him bounce back.

The view of Mt. Washington from the top of the ferris wheel.

Next two photos by Kate.

We found all of the elves too.

Certified.

Thanks Nana and Grampa, great day.

Early August, back when it was still Summer, we spent the afternoon up at The Cloisters.

Finding a lunch spot.

“The Cloisters museum and gardens, the branch of The Metropolitan Museum of Art devoted to the art and architecture of medieval Europe, was assembled from architectural elements, both domestic and religious, that largely date from the twelfth through the fifteenth century.” – source

Ivory is pretty amazing, and for the record, best kept on the animals it belongs to.

It looks so buttery though.

Noah telling about his favorite animal with tusks or something.

He made a lot more sense when I finished this.

Infinitely intricate.

Silly.

Saw this guy on the way out.

Grrrrrr… a couple weekends ago we went to a party for Savannah’s 5th birthday.

Improvised tail.

Princess Sophie, Princess Savannah, and Princess Derby.

Aransas shaming you all, as always. Below are hot dog muffins!

Princesses being announced.

…and Oliver the wizard (in green).

Royal dance.

Noah and Chester psyched on the inflatable swords.

Saying goodbye.

Sappy. Still.

In Prospect Park, living the life.

We put our blanket by a tree with some great found sculpture.

Until someone smashed it.

All of it.

Finding cool bugs.

Reading comics.

Firefly.

Working late.

Heading home.

A quick bike ride with Nana and Grampa before they head back to NH.

Picnic lunch in Prospect Park.

A little playground time.

Friends waiting for the train with us.

Friends at the Brooklyn Cyclones game with us.

Walk-off win!

The clique.

Wait for it….

Run the bases!!

Good weekend.
