A Winter Hike

Less than 10 miles from Boston is the Blue Hills Reservation, a public area with hiking trails, skiing, and beautiful views of the surrounding area. We took advantage of a cold, sunny winter day and joined up with a group from CityLife for some winter exercise.

Here's Katie and part of the crew, most of whom go to our community group on the way up towards the weather station.

Wii Fun

More fun from the Christmas holidays... the nephew and nieces get the Wii!

Little sister to sister competion. Tara came out on top, but word on the street is Katie is looking for a rematch.

Then mom and dad get into the fun...

Long Time No Blog

Here's some pics from the last few months...

In October we headed to CT to a bed and breakfast for a nice few days away...



In November, Sarah and Dad came up and we made a visit to the Boston Aquarium:



Then along came December and Christmas.

And with December came the snow. Which hasn't really stopped much.

And here we are at the end of January. Last weekend we headed up north to NH for some skiing and snowboarding. We hit the slopes at Attitash where the conditions were awesome and there was hardly anyone there on a sunny (but cold) Saturday.

Building up courage...

Katie's under there somewhere.

With some friends who live up in beautiful Conway.

The next pictures will be from a warmer place...
