Now it's piglet time

Isaac and I are very lucky to be so close to the Farm Institute, we get to help with all sorts of things over there. 
I had the best time helping with the birthing of their lambs, and now that they've all been born, now it's the pigs turn. The day before we left for New York,  Giavonna went into labor. We raced down to the farm in time to help with three new babies! 
It was very exciting! I was glad that Isaac was able to see it, to see how tiny the piglets are, and see how their mama is with them. 





Hockey Award

Another great hockey season has come to an end, and this year was really fantastic for Ian! 
This year, Ian really showed his dedication to the game, worked really hard, and skated harder than anyone out on the ice! I can't believe that hockey will start again in just a few short months! 

Isaac's first haircut

On March 27th, Isaac got his very first (professional) haircut! Thank god for Auntie Arie, she was really excited to come and capture the moment for us, and of course, she did such an amazing job! 


The hair stylist made Isaac look like a real big boy, very, very handsome! 





"The little holes are all fixed"

On March 22nd, Isaac had his second visit with Dr. Golden, to fix his "little holes".  Like the last two times, Isaac was the perfect patient! 


Michael came with us for a little while this time, and Isaac got to show him all around the office. Dada was very proud! 
Isaac did just great, and now his teeth are good as new : ) 




More sunny days

I love living on the golf course, until the season kicks off, we can really take advantage of the wide open space! 
Ian got an airplane for his birthday, and this glorious sunny day was the perfect day for it's maiden flight. It was allot of fun! 






Isaac and I sat back and enjoyed some rays while Ian and Michael had a blast with the plane. Bring on more sunny days! 

Saint Patrick's Day

It was 1am on Saint Patrick's Day before I realized that Isaac didn't have anything green to wear for the fun day! 
Thank goodness for my tie dye supplies : ) 






We met up with my mom for the first annual St Patty's parade, which lasted a mere 5 minutes, but was so fun! From there we went to a church down the street, and played a round of mini golf, which was such a blast. I needed to hone in my putting skills, they were a bit rusty. 

Signs of Spring!

It was the first sign of spring here on the Vineyard. . . . Dairy Queen opened!! It just so happened that there was a half day of school that day, so by the time we got there, the line was a mile long. We waited a few extra hours and headed down to give it a go. 

The boys thought it was definitely worth the wait!
