Thanksgiving 2007

This is Olivia, Reese, and Elijah at Great-Grandma Harris's house for Thanksgiving. There was quite a crowd there once again this year. It's so nice to have a big family. All the kids had so much fun playing together. I love this picture so much! I actually got all three kids to smile at the same time. It is a feat in itself to get Reese to smile for any pictures let alone three kids at once. Yeah!





Some more pictures of the girls,

Day at the Cider Mill

We had a fun family day at the Cider Mill in Glastonbury, CT. The girls loved feeding all the animals, especially the goats who kept trying to lick them. Reese had a hard time leaving the animals but when we got to the pumpkins she wanted to try to take them all home. Olivia tried to find the biggest pumpkin she could find. So we got a big one and a few smaller ones that the girls could carry. We finished off our visit with an apple cider homemade donut which was very YUMMY!

Reese & Olivia at One Year

Here's Reese at one year. Yes, I know there's a bubble in between her eyes, but until I learn how to use Adobe Photoshop, it's there to stay. I thought these pictures were just too cute. Don't Olivia and Reese look like true sisters?




These are my two favorite pictures of Olivia at one year old. I can't believe how much she's grown and changed over the past 4 years. She's a cutie!

St. Martins, New Brunswick

This is Brightwater Cottage. We stayed at this quaint cozy cottage for a week and absolutely loved it. It was so peaceful and quiet in St. Martins, NB but there were so many things for us to do and keep busy. The view was pretty awesome too. We stayed on a miniature horse farm and woke up every morning to horses out grazing right outside of our cottage. Olivia got to ride horses everyday so she was in her glory and Reese couldn't get enough of them either. Every time Reese saw a horse she would say "Sorsie, Sorsie (horsie)" about twenty times in one sentence. From exploring beaches and sea caves to riding horses and walking the Fundy Trail (that was a work out!) to seeing the Hopewell Rocks and the fantastic scenery, we didn't want to leave. I feel like I'm giving a commercial but I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to relax and have a good time. Here's their website http://www.fundyfarmcottages.com/ check it out!!!

Roger & Maria's Wedding, NH

On June 9th, 2007 we went up to New Hampshire for my brother, Roger's, wedding. The night before we stayed at a 19th century reunion house right across the border in Vermont. We had a great time with our family and a wonderful time getting to know Maria's family. Olivia and Reese had fun entertaining everyone. I tried to show Olivia the fireflies that came out that night but it was so pitch black outside that she didn't want to stick around and see any of them glowing. I guess we're too used to the city lights were we live. There was a cute little wooden playhouse outside that Olivia and Reese got to play in, in the morning. Roger and Maria's wedding was so beautiful and peaceful. You could just tell how much they loved eachother and how happy they were. It was a great day!
