Music Man

Grandma gave Nolan a couple of harmonicas and he has been practicing his skills. Last night he put on a great performance!

Nick and Nolan went on their first sledding adventure last weekend. Nolan enjoyed the ride long enough to make about two runs down the hill and then he was ready to come in and get warm ( just like his mom!) The expressions on Nolan's face as they came racing by were priceless!

Snow Day

It has been a snowy winter thus far and our deck has been piling up with snow. Nick and Nolan worked on shoveling it off this morning. Nolan is such a good helper, even to the point of dumping snow all over himself while trying to lift snow over the railing!

Harvest Time Happenings

I realized that I never put pictures up from our annual trip to the pumpkin patch. As you will notice, there are a limited number of pictures where Nolan is actually looking at the camera. He was busy the entire time and it was a challenge to get him to look at the camera long enough for me to snap a good picture. Nolan was also a little golfer for our church's harvest party. He received many compliments on his costume and he even left the hat on the entire night!

Swing Set!

Nolan received a new swing set last week from his grandpa and grandma and thanks to the great weather he has been getting a lot of good use out of it. He loves climbing and going down the slide most of the all. Swinging seems to be fun for about 30 seconds! The only problem is now every morning he sees that swing set and says "Side!" - his word for outside. I think he would spend 10 hours a day outside if his parents would let him.

Jump around!

Our neighbors have a trampoline in their backyard. Nolan loves to watch the boys jump on it and apparently has taken notes on how to land successfully! He was practicing his landing skills on our bed last night!

Cape Cod

Nolan and Danielle took a little vacation out to Cape Cod last week and were joined by Danielle's dad, Steve. It was rainy many of the days they were there but they were able to see quite a bit and spent one day on Martha's Vineyard in the midst of the President's vacation with his family. It was a zoo around there and they did their best to stay away from the action but the Presidential motorcade followed them around the island from one town to another! Apprently they were always at the happening place.
