Savoy & Greylock

We spent a few days camping at Savoy Mountain (Duke stayed at a shelter). The weather was beautiful, although there were a few too many bugs.

Julia has been biking more and more lately, so we brought her bike with us.


Stella cooling off.


Getting ready for a little ride.


Trouble.






Simultaneous napping - a good thing.

Aiyana's Recital

Aiyana (aka "my little niece") had her first guitar recital yesterday. She took it very seriously, and was very focused.

Here she is, with mom, before the start.


Listening carefully to the teacher's instructions.


Ready:


And playing.


She did really well. The older kids were good too, and Aiyana will be playing like them soon!

Multitasking

Stella can now walk and hold things... or she can get across a room in 2 or 3 seconds... many more ways to make Trouble.
