The letters were a gift from Jeff and
were hand-painted in Argentina! He
gives the most unique gifts :)
Easton is sound asleep, Jace is following his son's example and I'm just reflecting on a great family visit from my family...and the fact that our little homie is now 11 weeks old!! I told you all about our trip to Maine but want to wrap up the rest of the week since we had so much fun :)
Tuesday night we celebrated Jeff's impending exit from his 20's at one of my favorite restaurants, Beacon Grille, and on Wednesday Mom, Dad, Jeff and I headed into Boston and took a historic sightseeing cruise of Boston's inner and outer harbors. That night we all said our goodbyes to Jeff and he headed back to Denver for his summer break from teaching in the Dominican Republic (don't worry, he has one more year there and is ALWAYS ready to welcome guests!). Thursday was a low-key day for Mom, Dad, E and me as we spoiled Easton and Rae with a walk at Long Pond. I was really looking forward to the walk since my dad hadn't been there yet but sadly it was kind of a bust because a.) Easton got CRAZY hungry at exactly the halfway point (took us about 20 minutes to get back to the car), and b.) Rae got in a mini-fight with a rambunctious dog at the park. We've seen better days at our favorite walking park that's for sure...
Heidi & Matt - We'll miss you two!!
On Friday, my parents took a day-trip down to Newport so Mom could see the Navy base where Dad did his training in February while Jace and I attended a BBQ for our friends Matt & Heidi Bader. Matt just got out of the Air Force and they are moving back home to Portland, OR. And finally, today we all we headed over to Wakefield, MA to walk around Lake Quannapowitt then stopped for lunch on the patio at Bellino's. It was the perfect way to wrap up their visit!
Here are some more pictures and a video* from this week!!

Easton Douglas Anders - 3 days old More pictures @ http://www.our365.com/ He's here, he's here!!! Jace and I welcomed our son Easton Douglas to the world this past Saturday, April 16th at 4:22 PM and we couldn't be more proud. It was an awesome experience...not so much in the "incredibly cool, can't wait to do it again" context but genuinely in AWE of how mother nature and modern medicine can work together to ease a woman and efficiently deliver a baby. Before I tell you all a little bit about our story (again, no worries, I won't blast all the nitty gritty across your screen) I must say a HUGE thank you to our staff at Winchester Hospital. Though I know not a single of of those doctors, nurses and other staff members will read this they will forever hold a special place in our hearts for the outstanding service and love they showed all three of us!! They exceeded any expectations Jace and I might have had and just had to throw that out there. ...
Jace has been in MN since Thursday braving the cold with Team Franchise at the 2011 US Pond Hockey Championship . The team made it to Sunday again this year but unfortunately couldn't get by the "Pulled Hammies" this morning to advance to the finals. Better luck next year, boys! :( So, since he's been gone I've been catching up on projects around the homestead since it's been so damn cold outside. On Thursday night I scanned in about 80 old family photos that I had received over the years from my Aunt Kathleen. I decided to do this because I'm building an online baby book for mini-Ma$e and you can add pictures - thought it'd be fun to add some old family photos. Anyway, I won't overload you with too many but here are some of my favorites...the rest can be viewed here . Moving on... Friday started off with another snowstorm - excellent. Hanscom was open for business...well, that is, for everyone ex...
We just got back from Trunk or Treating at Easton's daycare...how flippin' fun (and pretty roarsome as Henry Hugglemonster would say). Mr. Blondie waiting for the trunk or treating to begin! Still figuring out that the chocolate must be unwrapped first. No hurry to explain :) Homeless Lion with a Market Basket bag. Score one for the parents. Some pretty creative pumpkins!
