Sledding!

Sledding in Forest Hill Park with the masses...

Getting ready to take the plunge!

Whee!

The long walk back up.

Its hard to tell who had more fun...MB or John?

Snow - Round 2!

We got our SECOND big snow this winter...crazy for Richmond, VA!

Practicing sledding before we head outside. Mary Beth thought the sled was a boat when we brought it home!

Fun playing in the snow.

Whee, going for a ride!

MB and friends

Coloring with friend Sean.

Nice hat!

At the Playroom with Will...

Racing down the roller coasters. These things are really cool!

And playing the ball pit.

Will's such a funny guy.

Mary Beth visits the train station!

Mary Beth's current favorite book is "Curious George Visits the Train Station." So we thought it would be fun to take her to the station in Richmond. She loved it, but kept looking around for the man in the yellow hat...

Picasso!

New Years Eve on the Eastern Shore

We went down to the Eastern Shore for New Years. Mary Beth had so much fun playing with Dickinson and Sophie ("Nophie!") and we had a great time catching up with Kate and Thornton and Jenn.

Dickinson cooking in his cool new kitchen.

Sharing their concoctions.

Giving Shackleford a taste.

More treats for Shack.

Using John as a jungle gym.

Sophie!

The Katy Kate, all decked out for the holidays.

MB playing the piano for Mr. Watson.

Roomies!

John and Thornton by the bonfire.

The next morning, Dickison and MB did not want to stop playing to take a pic!

And there they go!

Merry Christmas!

We had a great time visiting Nanny and Pop in PA over Christmas. Santa was very good to us!

Mary Beth loved watching Pop play Christmas Carols on the mandolin...and Daisy, Twinkle Star, Baa, Baa, Black Sheep, Row, Row, Row Your Boat, etc.

Still singing.

Christmas morning we started by opening up some books!

And then a very special baby with her own stroller.

Playing with the eagle, better known as "Carl" from Aunt Suki and Uncle John.

So many presents, where do I start?

Getting some help from Nanny.

Looking pretty in her Christmas dress.

Taking a break to read with Aunt Jane and Uncle Joe.

Dancing in her Santa hat.

MB sporting the crown at Christmas dinner.

We also celebrated Aunt's birthday, Mary Beth couldn't wait to get to the cake.

Ooh, looks so good.

We went to the Please Touch Museum over the weekend.

They had this huge puzzle that Mary Beth loved putting together with her Aunt Weez.
