Team Anders

Oh the snow...  Nothing new to report, same ole, same ole, but wanted to share some more pictures as the snow continues to build outside our apartment.  Can't wait to see the look on my Mom's face when she arrives from Arizona in two weeks to see this for herself!  Enjoy and stay safe everyone!

This past weekend was our Hanscom family's annual ski trip.  Much like last year, it consisted of some cocktails, Lots of sugary snacks, Some friendly competition, One pregnant woman, And, of course, some skiing & snowboarding! Danny Kent, Matt Bader, Heidi Bader, Jace Anders, Crystal Ornelas, Peter Foster, Liz Damato, Brian Reese & Danielle Reese So here's a quick recap of the weekend's festivities.  We had 5 couples for this year's trip to Okemo Mountain Resort in Ludlow, VT . Pete & Crystal Matt & Heidi DK & Liz Ali & Jace Brian & Danielle Friday night was a great time.  We laughed a lot, drank a lot (H2O for me peeps, no worries), ordered some Wicked Good pizza , watched the NHL all-star game draft (professional athletes picked their team as if they were playing kickball in the playground - sucks to get picked last on national television) and played Tabo...

Snow Day #2 here in Boston, MA and I'm looooving this!  Woke up early this AM in hopes our Air Base Commander would "do the right thing" and close the base - she didn't disappoint (thanks, Col Yike).  SO it was back to sleep for me for just a few more hours until our now " cauliflower head sized " son decided to dance a jig in my belly...needless to say I was UP!  BTW if any of you are interested, today is our 27th week - last one of the second trimester.  If not, well, now you know anyway :)  LOL Anyway, had a rather productive morning in my kitchen office.  I love the dress code and the cost of coffee at this office - anytime I can wear my favorite birthday present I'm a happy camper!  Knocked out a ton of little nitnoid tasks - you know, the ones you can't get done out in office space because someone wants "just a minute of your time" and then 45 minutes later they've finally decided to leave.  (One of the reasons I absolutely ref...

I use quotes around blizzard because I don’t think we quite got the winds necessary to officially declare “BLIZZARD” but nonetheless it snowed... and it snowed for quite a while.  As I currently look out the window at our clear shot of I-93 the cars are moving along just fine and there’s plenty of clear asphalt.  Despite the excellent preparation for and removal of the snow by MassDOT the gates of Hanscom AFB remain closed this AM and Jace and I get to spend the day lounging!  So VERY excited that neither of us have to worry about shoveling or clearing sidewalks - the perks of apartment living, right? Snow on our balcony furniture Regardless of how much I’d rather just stay inside today the little one still has to do her business outdoors - potty pad training at 5 years old has been a major failure, ha!  Here are some photos from our adventures at 7am.
