Snow Day Part II

The last time it snowed in a large way was December 19th while we were at the hockey game. We usually get storms like that once every few years and it looks like we are on track to have a similar storm in this area on Saturday. I will believe it once I see it but I know the little guy will love it since he can now walk.

There are some videos below, the large sized one I can’t reduce for some reason – it was the video that was shown on the fan-o-vision at the game on December 19th. Owen was a good fan that day.

Happy Birthday Sarah!

Happy Birthday Sarah… six more weeks of winter!

Last year’s birthday post to her.

Hello!

Big Boy

Here is a quick update to show you how Owen is getting around these days. I need to catch up on the older pictures, there have been some bumps and bruises with the walking learning curve but Owen is getting steadier and faster as each day goes by. Looking forward to the spring weather but for now he enjoys just being outside and bundled up, just like me.

Owen is even mowing the lawn and he enjoys driving in his new car that Aunt Sara and Uncle Dave got him. As you can see in the hockey video, he is developing his personality and enjoys laughing and testing our limits of what we let him get away with.

Crazy Boy!

Happy Birthday!

It has been a quick year, December 30th, 12:44 p.m. marked Owen’s 1st birthday. So much has changed during that time, it really is amazing. Just wanted to post some pictures and video of him enjoying his birthday and first Flyer’s game (which happened during a blizzard).

Owen wants to say thanks to all of his family and friends he has made for the love and support over this past year. We are all thankful for everyone and look forward to another exciting year of changes in 2010!

Now it’s time to head to Boston for the Winter Classic!

Snow Days

What a difference a week makes. Last Sunday I was “sledding” in the back alley with Owen on my skateboard, wearing only a light sweatshirt and yesterday we were sledding in actual snow and warming up by an outdoor fire that Pete made for us. Winter is officially here and I am glad.

Some fun firsts for Owen this weekend, his first trip on picking up a Christmas tree and his first time playing with snow and being able to sled. I think we need to prepare him a little better for the elements next time as he did not have any snow pants on, or any boots/shoes… but he still enjoyed his time since I just wrapped him up in my flannel.

Thanks to Billy and Kathy for the fun Sunday afternoon/evening, we all enjoyed our time and the dinner and company was great. Owen got to meet some new little friends and he can’t wait to get back out there!
