Recapping the Spring

Chris and I at Piedmont Park. The weather has been so perfect this spring. We've taken full advantage of the beautiful weather before the typical Georgia heat and sticky humidity sets in.

Our cherry trees were gorgeous this spring. We were just a few days late with taking this picture. Wish we would have captured their full beauty while they were at full bloom. Next year...

Boston feeding his face instead of feeding the ducks at Alexander Park.

Happy Birthday to me. Chris took me out for my favorite - SUSHI! After our yummy dinner we checked into the Marriott in Atlanta where we enjoyed our "romance package".

Our room package included brunch. Keith, Shannon, Dash and Thiggy joined us. Thanks guys for coming out and helping me celebrate my last birthday in my twenties. Next year, it'll be my big 3-0! Yikes!

Brent's happy birthday. The family all had dinner at Long Horn. I love this picture of Bossy and Brent. Boston LOVES his Uncle Brent.

Chris, Boston and Butters passed out on the couch. Too dang cute.

Boston's 1st hike up Stone Mountain

We bought a season pass to Stone Mtn Park and took Boston for his 1st hike up the mountain. He was so excited! He wanted to climb up every little boulder on the way up. He kept repeating the words, "hike, hike, hike". It was quite entertaining.
Chris and I were expecting to have to carry him up some of the way, but that little ball of energy hiked to the top of that mountain all by himself!! We were so proud.
After our mountain adventure, we went to the playground and then to the lake where we fed the ducks. It was a fun and exhausting day. Bos fell asleep on the way home. Poor little man was tuckered out!

Bossy and Chris chillin' at the top.

Just chillaxin'

What a HAM! OMG! I love this picture!

Easter

The Easter Bunny found his way into our house again this year.

Boston enjoyed his Easter morning.

Superman & Batman DVD!

The thrill of the hunt. Of course, Butters had to be close by just in case he dropped some candy.

Chris's family came over to play yard games and enjoy an Easter feast. We all had a great time together. Happy Easter!!

Our snowmen and snow-woman

The day after it snowed, the snow was in perfect condition for making a snowman. So, we decided to make 3 of them. One for Chris, one for me and one for Bossy.

Here's Chris and Boston rolling the bodies together.

Boston giving the snowman some good lovin'

Tada! Our snowman family is complete! Boston's has a Sponge Bob hat on. Chris's is decked out in RedSkins attire. Mine is a breasty Luau snow-woman, complete with a grass skirt. We had a lot of fun making them and got lots of laughs from our neighbors. It was a fun way to start my birthday off.

It DOES snow in Georgia!

I'm welcoming in my 29th birthday with SNOW! What a great day! I got off of work early and was able to come home to prepare to play in our winter wonderland.

This is our picture of us taking our 1st step out into the fluffy fun stuff.

Look how excited Boss is to step out into the snow!
One big snuggly Fox family
Chris and Boston flying down our neighbors front yard on his snowboard. What fun! We don't have a sled, so we made do with what we have.

Carey, the snow angel?

I taught Boss how to make snow angels.

Making a snowman?....

Nah, why make a snowman, when you can build a torpedo in your front yard! Snowmen are sooooo 2009.

After our many hours of fun in the snow, we finally turned inside for a random dinner of gigantic cookies, soup and mussels. Yes, random but yummy and perfection still the same.

Happy Birthday to Michelle

Happy Birthday Shell! We celebrated Michelle's happy birthday at Longhorn Steakhouse. Yum. Chocolate Stampede will satisfy any PMSing woman's craving for chocolate. It's a chocolate muse cake straight from the gods. Chris and I already want to go back to re-entertain our taste buds. Maybe tomorrow....

Just a tease...

I bought Boston snow boots in preparation for the "arctic blast" that was going to hit us. As you can see from the pictures, the weatherman got us all excited for a light dusting. At least Chris didn't have to go into work until noon today.

This was a fun way to spend my last weekday before I start my new full time job. I will rejoin the rest of the full-time workers on Monday, January 11th. My part-time job just wasn't cutting it. It was fun while it lasted, and I am grateful for the time I was able to spend with Boston. I am very lucky that I had the opportunity to be a part-time stay at home mommy.
