Reader Boy!

William's reading has really taken off in the last couple months. He reads almost everyday. Here he is reading "Green Eggs and Ham" to baby sis. He can read the whole book with little to no help! We love the Dr. Seuss books! We are excited and proud of our reader boy!

Maui Ocean Center

Arrabella and I had a fun date at the Aquarium this past Thursday. It was fun to hang out with all the sea life, with my little mermaid.

Double point!!! She must be having fun!

Family Photos 2014

Here are some pics from our family photo shoot 2014. It was nice to get photos of our family of 4! It was a beautiful day but the sun came out and the wind came out and it made the picture taking a bit hard. We still managed to get some good ones. 




Arrabella has some serious faces! She is so very sweet and loving so the grumpy cat faces crack me up!


Maui family.



William looking handsome! His hair was blowing everywhere, but he was a trooper. 


Mermaid!


Island princess with Daddy!


We are just going for a walk on the beach, that's all. Check out Molokini and Kahoolawe in the back.

Sledding in Boulder

We got to go sledding during our time in Boulder. It was one of our favorite parts of the trip. It was a beautiful sunny day and the temps were not as frigid, it got down to -30 with the windchill at one point! Brrr! 


Ready for blast off!  




William and Chris trying out the turf. 


Little snow bunnies!



Bella was really funny and kept laying down on the sled while we pulled her around.


What a fun day in the snow! We love snow!

Having a giggle with Pamma and Santa! 




Christmas Day 2014

We had a very merry Christmas 2014!!! We spent it in Long Grove with Grandpa and Pamma and the family. In the morning we headed to Christmas mass before brunch. 

Santa came to Pamma's house!!! 


Me and this handsome little Newton boy!


Chris with the Newton babies!


Love that they sit together! 


William got an air hockey table from grandpa and it was one of his favorite gifts! 


Bella with this cute little doll from uncle Greg and aunt Mary! She loves it and has started to say "I love you" like the doll. 


Bella loves her new white kitty cat, it's just like Pamma and Grandpa's!


On Christmas Eve William got everything ready for Santa's visit with a little help from Pamma.
