Patriots vs. Texans, AFC Division Championship

Todd and I scored some tickets to the AFC Division Championship between the Patriots and the Houston Texans in Foxborough.  So we went down to Plymouth for the weekend and my awesome inlaws and niece Madison watched the kids so we could go to the game, and enjoy some tailgating too!  Here's Todd and Rob at the tailgate!


 What is that Rob?  Is that what I think it is?  Why yes!  Yes that is a jar of moonshine!


And of course, before we left for the game, we always have to shotgun a beer.  I think it's for luck.  


Well it's a good thing we DID shotgun beer.  Because the Patriots beat the Texans, 41-28.  It was an awesome game.  We stood the whole time, but at least we were on the 100 level and not the 300 level. It was actually a really warm day (temps got up to near 50!) so even the game wasn't too bad.  I nearly lost my eyesight... twice due to unruly high fives during good plays, but it's all good!  GO PATS!

New Year's Eve

We woke Natalie up at about 11:45 to watch the ball drop with us.  I'm frankly very surprised that we even made it to New Year's.  We gave Natalie some "green chips" and a Lindt chocolate ball, along with another very rare treat- a small cup of juice!  She thought there must be food at a New Year's Eve party!




Here's our self portrait of us in our jammies, on the couch with our drinks and our Natalie-made conical hats on!  Happy New Year!

New Year's Sledding

Todd took the kids sledding on New Year's Eve (while I worked) and on New Year's Day (while I stayed home battling a sinus infection). 


Fearless Natalie taking on the "slopes" at the park.


Grant, as usual, was not very interested in sledding.  He went down the hill once on New Year's Eve with Todd and Natalie, but for the most part, he found these trucks and had fun playing in the snow.


Here she comes!


On New Year's Day, Grant apparently walked up and down the hill with the sled, but didn't want to get on it!  Silly boy!
