candlepin bowling.

February 2, 2012

we love trying new things around new england.
our latest adventure {last weekend} was candlepin bowling!

we were awful. it’s a lot harder than regular bowling.
and very different.  however, we had a lot of fun.
…we enjoyed trying to see how many “ball” jokes we could make.
husband some of us, may never grow up.

have you ever tried candlepin bowling?
even heard of it?

16 years.

look where we are…

i am constantly amazed at what this man and i have accomplished together.

as excited as i am to be celebrating our relationship, today. i am also sad. husband has been “home” for 7 weeks, minus the time we both spent traveling to utah in january, this is the longest-time he’s spent at home in the past 18 months. tomorrow morning he heads back out of town for business. overseas he goes. my heart is aching already. it’s so nice having him around. it’s good to know we’re not tired of each other, right?

cheers to many more years, adventures, and red sox games! xo.

one morning we were having a quick bite to eat at jamba juice in times square,
and i snapped this picture:

{look how little my girlies were!}

two weeks ago, we revisited this same spot so we could re-shoot the same picture:

{moosey was not in the best smiling-mood.

nye in nyc. part 2

{part 1 here.}

more pictures from our nyc trip.

we spent Dec. 30th – January 1st in nyc. this was our first time to drive there from boston & we are totally hooked. from our front door to our hotel, it was 3 hours. + the most beautiful drive through connecticut. the best part of this trip: it was the first time for kj & sela to see the big apple! so, we did as many of the kid-friendly-must-see sights as possible in three days!

the only downer: husband rear-ended a guy five minutes after we pulled into the city. then, when we parked in little italy to have lunch at one of our favorite pizza stops,
