Laura's visit

During Laura's visit.. Burt, Marissa, Ollie and I went to Great Brook farm in Carlisle.

Here is Laura doing a little training exercise with the ultra obedient Ollinator.

Baxter

Baxter is home and feeling better. For those of you that have never had the pleasure of giving a cat giant pills twice a day...there is no other experience quite like it. It is a two ( or more) person job. Make sure you double click on this photo to get the best view of him. :=)

* Because of recent ..uh..flak from certain individuals, I am going to make a concerted effort to make sure there is an animal featured with every entry.

Boston Marathon 08

We met up with Chris, Quinn, Robert, Paul, Joan and Michelle at heartbreak hill in Newton to watch the marathon. As it was Marissa's first time...I asked her what she thought and she replied.. "It was really fun for the first hour or two ..even three hours". We totally missed Lance Armstrong. He ran right by us and we didn't see him. The whole event was totally inspiring as we moseyed back to our car to go out to lunch.

Sunday Morning

A lazy Sunday morning during spring vacation. Ollie and Marissa hanging out on the floor, until things suddenly turn ugly.

This one is a video...click on the arrow to see it.

Another Family Wedding!!

My brother Gerry's son, Ian, married his long time love, Ewa (pronounced Eva) on February 29th! This is a great kid with TONS of personality and an infectious smile. We wish both of them the best of luck and a happy future!!!!
*Interesting...I was watching some old home movies recently and did note that Ian sounded very much like Kermit the frog when he was little.=)Hmm.. Hopefully, Ewa is good with that.

Portrait Of A Hybrid

An artist that we met at Nana's place in Weston, fell in love with Ollie...mainly because he hugged her, and offered to paint him. We love it! We are thinking of making the painting a new baby gift for someone special, for their nursery. We want that baby to be exposed to beauty from the very start.
