All in a day....St. Tropez, France

Second, you go to the market and ride the merry-go-round. Randomly you shop while the kids go round and round. The men look for a chair while the wives, nannies and security protect the strollers and diaper bags. (Could that be why the men are the only ones smiling in these pictures? just a thought)

First, you sit around while they try to park/wedge the $10 million yacht, in place. The French Sailboat was pretty cool. There are crowds of people watching and taking pictures hoping to see a celebrity so you put on your sunglasses and try not to disappoint them. The first year we went the port thrusters went out on another boat during some high winds and crashed into a bunch of smaller boats. On guy even abandoned ship it was good entertainment. Then the french sent a little dingy to help the 150+ ft yacht in high winds, gotta love the french.

The Christmas of Vehicles

Christmas has taken on new meaning for Shane as the kids get older. Gunnar got an Radio Controlled tank that actually shoots air soft bullets 50ft. Luckily Gunnar has no idea of this capability but Shane is waiting anxiously for the snow to melt and see what it can do. Livy got her favorite Little Einsteins rocket and characters. She quotes the little cartoons as she plays with the people and sings at the top of her lungs. (she has one of those voices that carries really well) Shane got a big kid RC rock crawler that is able to drive all over the house, couches, overruns legs and he's working on getting up the entire flight of stairs. I ended up with a new purse and a sexy pair of stilettos. I guess Shane is as excited as I am to be done with living in sweats for the last 5 years. Yeah I finally lost the baby weight!

Happy New Years resolution, I started a blog.

The snow is all new to us so we think this is great! (now that we're prepared) After shoveling for 2 days Shane went out and bought a plow for the 4-wheeler. We've had a lot of entertainment from watching cars get stuck in front of our house. It may have a little to do with Shane leaving snow speed bumps from the plow in the middle of the street that turn to ice, get covered with more snow and people have no idea they are there but I'm merely speculating. So far the snow has only inconvenienced me once when I didn't think I could make it to the gym. My solution was simple, I made Shane come get me and the kids and drive us to the gym.
