Dear Aunt Julie

Dear Auntie J, I have climbed my first mountain, ALL BY MYSELF!! I can't wait to go mountain climbing with you for real!

Well, maybe I should wait until I can stand up a little better in the driveway with my big boots on. (Auntie Mere & Sophia, if you're reading this, Mommy will try REALLY hard to get all the mud out of this pink snowsuit for you! It was even dirtier by the time we finished chipping away at all the ice in the driveway ~ even my hat was black!)

My big brothers were having fun pretending to live on 'Yellow Snow Road' that you used to live near in Alaska. I think Mommy needs to go buy a better variety of food coloring colors so they can "spray paint" the snow a better color. Our friend Brian wants to teach the boys how to write their names in the snow using REAL yellow-snow coloring. You and I wouldn't be able to do that.

Love, Your Beautiful & Precious Niece, Abigail

Science Museum

We had a great vacation week ~ especially with Daddy off with us!! We spent one day at the Science Museum in Boston ... the boys spent a good part of the day watching this ball run ... I think Bryce would be quite happy with this in our living room! There was also a cool frog exhibit going on, and we also saw a very impressive Roving Mars movie in the Omni Theatre. Spencer was so excited to brave the Lightning Show again ... go figure!

We also enjoyed some snowshoeing, bowling, sleepovers at Mimi & Grumpers and Grammy & Grampa's, cross country skiing at Sunday River, and a camp-out in the living room. We reviewed the week tonight and talked about their favorite moments ... Bryce's favorite moment was playing his first real arcade game with Daddy at the bowling ally ~ like father, like son!!!
