Hurricane Sandy

Last year was Irene... Now we prepare for Sandy! Overall we were really lucky. We only lost power for a few hours! The boys did a great job being cooped up for a few days... The pictures of the storm don;t really do the wind and rain justice. We live high up, so we didn't get much flooding either. No bad for our second hurricane

Ben is ready!

Trains keep boys busy

Charlie!

Charlie! He is the sweetest most photogenic one and a half year old. Sometime the middle kiddo doesn't get enough of the spotlight, but he definitely gets into a majority of the pictures... who could resist that face!
