Snow in Boston

We took a little day-trip to Boston, to enjoy the cold snowy weather. We ate at an Indian restaurant, then had tea in a Japanese tea-shop (hot sweet, milky tea, with boba), and we finished off with a very nice snack in a middle-eastern place.

Sunday Visit

Sena, Aiyana, and Constanta came to visit on Sunday:

Aiyana sure gets around! Now with Roxi.

Congelador

We were inspired by André's freezer, so we thought we'd share. Who wants blueberry pancakes?

Raluca's 34th

A very fun get-together at Raluca & Ed's house, with Sena and Aiyana, Marcia, Andy, Constanta, Dianne, and us. Marcia had to drive us there, through the snow.


Sena and Andy, playing nicely.

Marcia and Raluca were watching the kids play, but Ed was struggling to stay awake....


... but Sena (and Andy) had lots of energy.


We then went home and shoveled, with Barkly.
