Winter

The winter posts will be a bit brief this year because I was having problems with my cell phone and being the helpful and handy husband that he is, Marty had to wipe my phone clean and start over.  Which meant that he inadvertently permanently erased all of my photos from mid December until mid February.  The only ones I have are ones that I sent out in an email. Oh well, there are worse things, right??
One of the events of this winter was that Josie got her first pair of glasses.  When we went to pick out her frames she was determined to have these red ones.  At first I was against them.  They were so big and so bright and so red.  Although in this photo she is wearing red, her normal choice of color is usually pink or purple.  But now they make me smile whenever she wears them.  They somehow just seem to suit her and her personality.

Above is Benjamin at Jefferson Park on Beacon Hill.  It has a great playground, a fun bike path and super views of the city.  He is a really fun side kick during the days while Josie is at school. 

 And, also this winter we joined Barack Obama for  Inauguration Day 2013 activities .  It was really.... OK, not really.  As you can probably tell it is just a cut out but it was an inauguration day party.
