Day trip to NH

Chilling, Family, Friends, Grandparents, Shopping, Vacation Comments Off on Day trip to NH

Sunday morning we met up with Nana and Grampa Holt at my Uncle Lenny and Aunt Janet’s house in Manchester, NH to finally get the winter tires off our care (and maybe have an excuse to see each other).

Get the boring stuff out of the way.

Play time.

Photo of Noah swinging, while swinging. Talent for days.

Some quick shopping.

Noah’s face when I told him we had to leave Nana and Grampa.

Back on The Deaner porch in PVD.

We all waited for Julian to wake up from a nap.

Julian!

Straight chilling…

 

 

Mother’s Day with The Urban’s

On Sunday afternoon, before heading out to Emmett and Lisa’s, we wished Nana Holt a Happy Mother’s Day via video conference.

After a quick nap on the drive out, Noah had some business to take care.

In other news, Noah and I came up with a new nickname for Uncle Matt. We are calling him “Uncle Bugs” (he works for the USDA looking for microscopic insects in potato fields). Here Noah is asking Uncle Bugs about this dead bee he found.

Opa got dragged into bug hunting.

A gift (for Noah) from Aunt Lisa.

While we were celebrating Mother’s Day, why not celebrate some birthdays too.

Thanks for having us all over Emmett and Lisa, and thanks to everyone for the great birthday gifts and cards.

 

Easter!

Easter morning, a bucket left for Noah…

After we tore apart the Easter Bucket, and got cleaned up, we walked over to Nana and Opa’s for lunch with the family.

Victoria (who Noah calls “Micky”).

Custom eggs, as always.

Another bucket/basket left for Noah at Nana’s.

A little walk after lunch.

Uncle Matt banged up his knee, so Noah coached him to the park.

Playing with some parachutes.

Our audience.

Hug-fest, as always.

Back at Nana and Opa’s we dug into the cookies that Kate and Noah made the day before.

Mmm… Holidays…

Monday.

Running around the block a few times, getting some energy out.

Carolyn’s friend Donna carried this photo around with her all day (Carolyn is on the right..).

“Cleaning up”.

 

 

Loss

This past weekend we lost Kate’s cousin Carolyn to a hard fought bout with cancer. On Sunday we went up to the Bronx to be with her girls (Nicole, Jessica, Victoria, and Michele) and Aunt Diana (Carolyn’s mom).

Playing “letters” with Vicky (who Noah has nicknamed “Mickey”).
