Soccer, cub scouts and fishing

This weekend was packed with activities.  The kids started playing soccer again so it was nice to see everyone out on the field.  Once again, the end of game popsicles were the highlight of the morning.

On Saturday night Elan had his cub scout end of year banquet where he got awards for the activities that he has done over the last few months. The banquet ended with a folk singer that liked getting the kids involved in the singing and dancing.

On Sunday we went to a kids fishing contest.  The kids had a great time even though they didn't catch anything.  Mila enjoyed playing with the worms the most.

Fairwell Sweet Puna

Today we had to put down our beloved Puna.  She has been sick for quite some time and her body was finally shutting down.  We were all very upset and she will be missed.  Luckily, we were able to take Puna to the cape one more time.  She always loved going to the cape and spending time in the yard and on the beach.  Sunday was a perfect day to sit on the beach and play in the yard, which we think she really enjoyed. 

Easter and Marathon Monday

We had a busy few days.  We wanted to go skiing this weekend but the weather turned out to be too warm...actually hot!  On Easter morning we decorated Easter eggs before going for a hike and fishing.

After we got home we had popsicles and played outside.  Grandma and Grandpa D came over for dinner and the Easter bunny magically placed eggs all over the front yard.

On Patriot's day (aka Boston Marathon Monday) Elan got to march in the Concord Parade with his Boy Scout's troop.  It was a long march for the kids but he had a great time.  After we went to the marathon to cheer on the runners.

Last runs of the season

On Saturday Elan had a birthday party in the afternoon; so we spent the morning shopping for furniture for the house and catching up on things. 

On Sunday morning we got up early and went to Wachusett to hit the slopes.  It was suppose to warm up quickly during the day and with a warm week ahead we are worried that the snow will be gone soon.  We were able to get in a lot of runs and still take a hot chocolate break before it warmed up.

After our break we were able to ski for a few more hours before it got really warm.  After a nice lunch outside, the kids played in the snow and we took a few more runs before packing up and heading home.  Once we were home we enjoyed the rest of the warm weather by playing outside and setting up the grill.

Weekend with Grandma and Grandpa J

This week Grandma and Grandpa J came out to visit.  On Sunday they went to the Discovery museum in Acton.  We hadn't been there in years but the kids had a blast.
