Long Overdue

So I guess I've been a little negligent with my blogging lately.  Just realized that I never did finish the 25 photo a day in December challenge.  Maybe next year.

It's the first day of Spring Break for West Point and it's a beautiful day outside (still a little cold though).  We are having a nice relaxing Saturday so I have some time to share some of the pictures we've taken lately.  Many of these have already been posted to facebook, but there are a few new ones.

Over Presidents' Weekend we wanted to do something fun, so we took the kids to a place called the Castle Funzone.  It was fun.








We've also discovered Army Hockey.  We like hockey because it starts a bit later, isn't nearly as crazy busy, doesn't take all day like football does and is exciting to watch.  The pictures below were of some little kids who came out and played between the periods.  After the game was over, they had some special olympic skaters come out and play which was cool too.



I was at Micaela's middle school waiting to pick her up from drama practice one day and I saw these cool clouds.  They were more impressive in person.



Kurt's parents came down for Micaela's play and we took a drive through the towns on the other side of the Hudson.  Cold Springs is pretty nice and we had a very good lunch at a place called the Depot.



Jon still plays with Trio Blocks.  They've been a hit for the past two years, but his building skills have certainly improved.


The same weekend that Micaela had her musical, Jon went to a birthday party for one of his classmates at an inside jumping place.  He had such a good time, that I think we're going to do the same thing for his birthday.  The party favors were pretty cool too.



Helping Kurt with the laundry?  We love the Ikea chair bed that we can roll between the rooms when there are guests.  It's the size of a twin bed and the kids sleep really well on it.


I got this picture off Kurt's phone.  Not quite sure what's going on here :)


Kurt has done some work to make our front porch one of the nicest places in the house.  We love sitting out there in the mornings and evenings.  It's where he does most his drawing too.




These videos were really funny to watch because there were a bunch of failed attempts before they finally got a good flight.  I'll just post two though.



 And we finally got a copy of our movie poster.  Yup, I'm famous.   Our spoof of the Hunger Games turned out pretty well, but I will not be pursuing a career in film (as actor or producer) any time soon.  Or ever.
