Snow!

After returning from a trip to sunny Florida, we were greeted by 8+ inches of snow (and a little ice). This will probably be Henry's first vivid memories of snow as a boy!


First tracks in the snow!


Championship Snow Angel maker



Final product


Our house encased in the white stuff.




Our drooping dogwood was weighed down by the heavy snow.




Henry in front of our cute little chairs and table at the top of our cul-de-sac.





Tee's first foray in the snow. Immediately following this photo, he howled with disdain for this terrible, cold feeling he had on his fingers as he refused to keep his mitten on. Our family fun in the snow was brief that afternoon!



Tee much happier in the cozy warmth of our home. Softy!


More Disney

Here are some favorite photos from our inaugural trip to Disney:
Henry meeting Mickey and Minnie for the first time.




Henry and Tee with Pluto at Chef Mickey's! Henry loved the Fruit Loops with gummi bear topping.




Henry having a sweet moment on Cinderella's Carousel.



Henry and Tee at the Honey I Shrunk the Kids area at Hollywood Studios. A huge favorite for the boys!



Livy and Tee meeting one of the Brother Bears. Tee is a huge fan of huge fuzzy animals. He likes to kiss and bite their noses.




Henry loving the Dino area at the Animal Kingdom.





Katy and the boys in the Dino area at the Animal Kingdom. Tee could not get enough of that Jeep. Must be those Haskell genes....

Our visit to Disney World! - Video of the boys on the monorail

This is our first trip in the front car of the Disney Monorail. Henry was over the moon excited. I love how he says, "yippee!" in the middle of it. At the end of our last day there, he repeatedly exclaimed, "I'm a lucky boy! I'm a lucky boy!" So true!

More photos to post soon. xo

Tee's perennial mess

If you've ever come into our kitchen and seen the mess coming out of the corner cupboard, this will help you understand the "why" behind it.

Happy Birthday, Tee!

Little Tee Mac turns 1 and we have a cupcake party to celebrate! It's Tee, our family, and some of our family friends.
The Birthday boy has no idea what all this fuss is about.


The kids show off their cupcake decorating skills.


Tee, again, has no idea of what all this fuss is about.


So do I squeeze this new toy you've just given me?


Not sure what to make of the cake.


I'll take another one - pronto.


Hardly a crumb left.

In his birthday duds - obsessing over our Night Before Christmas talking bear.

Playing with his new "matchbox" cars. Now he can be just like big brother!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

The Boys are in heaven with all things Christmas.

Tee loves our talking bear that recites The Night Before Christmas.

Henry and Tee love playing in front of the tree, to mommy's chagrin.

Henry and his grandfather, "Pops," are captivated by the trains at Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens.



Pops and Henry under a lit up candy cane during Lewis Ginter's Festival of Lights.



Henry at Lewis Ginter, striking a pose!


Tee loves his reindeer antlers. What a happy little guy.


Mommy and Henry training to be Rudolph understudies.
