February Vacation

We've had a great week together. It started with a mini-vacation for me to celebrate my college roommate, Chrissy & her new hubby Alex at a reception in NYC. It was a beautiful night in Central Park at the Boathouse - black and white surrounding Chrissy in Red. Our other roommate, Laura, has New York running through her veins so she organized us and treated us all weekend long. For example, on the drive down I realized that I had left my evening gown for the night, my senior year Homingcoming court dress (yes from 1995) back in Natick. 30 minutes after I called Laura she and Marissa had been to Bloomingdales and had the dress you see here in hand!












I did miss my little people though and found myself telling stories all night long. It reminded me to post some of the things that Jane and Turner have done/said:

In the bathroom:
Jane cheers for us whenever any of use the potty. "Yeah daddy!"
Turner one day made quite a mess around the toilet. After we cleaned it up I asked Turner what he had learned. He said, "to not dance when I am peeing." awesome!

Religious references:
Turner found some dice in the house and was playing with them. Overheard to Hanky: "Hank, this is like the Catholic dreidel."
On reflecting on February, 14th Turner said, "It must be Valentine's day everyday in heaven."

Other Random happenings:
Jane, most recently found a picture of a baby on her mattress. She loves to undo her sheet and say "night, night baby," Very funny except that the last thing Jane needs is a new part to her bedtime routine.

For the rest of the vacation we were sledding, snow balling, eating at Stone's and Turner and I went Skiing at Ski Ward - for all you from Ohio - it was a mini- snow trails. Perfect for learning to snow plow.
