Misc. November Photos

 Uncle Adam & Uncle Dave were home from London over the Thanksgiving Holiday. They came over to our house for a Sunday Dinner. Jackson with Uncle Adam.

 Uncle Dave, Shane and Daddy.

 Shane showing off his new nerf gun that he received for his birthday.

The blue race track is alive and well. Uncle Jay gave this to the boys a few years back and as you can see they take over the family room with it. Above is the Dinosaur village/ Jurrasick World- the Dinosaurs are watching over the race cars. Complete with a drive in move theater that is housed in the Bat Cave at the end of the ramp!

Symphony 2015: Peter and the Wolf

We went on our annual trip to Symphony Hall to hear the youth orchestra play Peter & The Wolf. We were early so we went to the Musical Instrument Zoo and then took lots of pictures. Jackson was our official photographer.

 Shane, Mommy & Jackson peaking out from behind.

 Waiting for the concert to start, we had great seats! Right over the stage.

 Jackson fell asleep for a few minutes during the concert.

 Mommy bought each one of you an Irish Flute. You didn't stop playing it until a few days after the concert. Shane above, Jackson Below.

We had lunch at Panera Bread on Mass Ave and while we were walking back to the car, Jackson asked me why there were so many people on the street asking for money? I thought it was very perceptive and then he just kept playing his whistle. On the way home we talked more about it, don't know how much sank in but I thought it was a good question.

Thanksgiving weekend 2015 at The Mount Washington Hotel, NH

We had another great weekend at the Mt. Washington Hotel in New Hampshire this year.
No snow at the hotel, but Brettonwoods Ski resort had man made snow and there was some snow to look at on top of the Mountain.

This year we had adjoining rooms with Nana and the boys LOVED it!
We did almost everything the hotel had to offer: Lots of swimming, Carriage Ride with Ralph the horse, Ski Lessons, Rock Climbing, Arcades and more!

 Mommy scored a seat by the fireplace one night while Daddy took the boys to the arcade.

 Here is Shane Playing Guitar Hero at the arcade.

 Smiley boys playing games in the hotel lobby:-) Jackson Left, Shane Right (Shane has no front teeth)

 The boys squabbled over who would hold the room key the entire weekend. Above, Jackson holding the key, while Shane got his portrait done (below).

 Waiting for the carriage ride- Jackson.

What trip to the Mount Washington Would be complete without Roasting Marshmellows! During this fireside chat, we learned about the ghosts in the hotel, Especially room 314.

Halloween 2015

 Payson Road Halloween 2015.
We had a Star Wars Theme this year. Shane was Darth Vader, Jackson was a Storm Trooper, Mommy was Pricess Leiha and Daddy was Bobo Fet.

Here we are in front of our Neighbor's house (Debbie and Dennis). They do a great job decorating!
