flash friday

It is New Years Eve and Liam is sick. He woke up late, has a temperature and just looks like poo. We had a fun filled day planned that included some sledding, a play date with Dylan and going to K & A's for some New Years Eve fun. Oh well the fun will happen another time; we are together and that is all that matters.
Here is the week in review:

Snow!

So much snow, Liam had a snow day!

recovering from the worst stomach virus, ever!


I got my eye on you...

Liam the robot!

my frenemy

I would like to introduce you to my new friend. I think we will be the best of buds in no time or possibly the best of enemies. My new friend  has agreed to sing to me, talk to me, remind me what pain feels like, challenge me, keep me motivated and best of all help me reach my 2011 resolutions.  Please meet my friend, first name Nordic, last name Track.

merry, merry

 To me, snow on Christmas morning is one of the main parts of the holiday. And here in New York, we had NONE. None! However I did wake up to find a "white Christmas" in our living room. Andrew made those old school snowflakes from paper and hung them around the Christmas tree. It was very thoughtful and magical. We laughed later in the day because we both realized that his snowflakes looked nothing like the snowflakes we once made back in elementary school. Although, no two snowflakes are alike...

We all were on Santa's "nice" list this year. Liam was very excited about the presents under the tree. And ran over to the biggest one (of course!). After tearing into, he was no longer interested in opening his presents, he just wanted to play with his farm. My parents came down to celebrate the day with us. It was a great Christmas. Andrew and I ranked Christmas this year as one of the best (in our adulthood). We hope yours was the best, too!

warrior dash

On 8.13.11 cheer me on as I complete the Warrior Dash. I am not a thrill seeker nor an athlete. So why did I sign up to participate in this event which is described as a run from hell? I am not totally sure myself. Maybe there was some peer pressure or maybe it is a good excuse to get my butt into gear or maybe it is because I am up for a challenge...but a run from hell (oy vey!). My plan is to get into shape....warrior shape. Kick some ass with my warrior partner, Sue, wear a furry hat and be able to say that I did this. Now....it is the getting from here to there part that is more intimidating than leaping over fire.
