March 2009

March is a month of snowfall and snowmelt here in New Hampshire. Enjoy the variety!

Kate loves to puddle stomp in front of our house as we have some great ones at the end of our driveway.

Love the new rain boots and rain outfit!

Still playing in the snow!

First picnic outside in our yard!

Too cute! Kate made great progress in her skiing this year. She finally perfected stopping after her ski lessons and much practicing at Dartmouth Skiway!

Posing for Mom at the Skiway!

That's our girl!

One last skiing picture!

April & Happy Easter 2009

Kate is waiting and ready to do her Easter Egg Hunt in our yard.

She loved finding the eggs all over the yard.

Found one. And yes, we still had some snow in our yard!

Another cool present!

Kate loves her gymnastics classes!

Having fun at gymnastics!

A nightly tradition is for Kate to dance to Jazz music - here are Daddy and Kate dancing to "In the Mood."

And a dip and she loves it!

Kate and I are waiting in the car for Daddy's bike race to come by our lookout spot!

There he goes! Yes, he did a bike race on literally the one year anniversary of last year's crash and finished safely having fun!

We had a really warm couple of days and Kate loved running through the sprinklers. One thing you have to love about New Hampshire is the quick change from snow sports to summer activities!
