Todd - 4 weeks old

On Sunday I went to visit my nephew....he is now 27 days old!!!! Babies at that age dont do much...they eat, poop & if they are boy babies - aim at their mommy while she is changing him. Here is Todd after doing all of the above:

and then they go to sleep.....and my sis is one comfy place for Todd to snuggle up to!!!

woodstock

On our trip last week, we visted the town of Woodstock. It's a realy cute little town with a bunch of hippie memorbilia & cafes. In one store there was a drippy candle that the owners started creating 6 years ago....it's pretty magnificant now.

The only sad thing is that a bunch of 17 y/o were in the store with me & were speculatiing what happened on the date that they listed "in memorial for". Those kids ignorance made me very sad!

Howe Caverns

I think as a kid, everyone who lives in the northeast has visted Howe Caverns...it's pretty cool to go back as an adult!

Randy & I in the "wedding chamber" - the lights have been strategically placed on the "bridal altar" to show off the beauty. I think since the caverns opened, there has been over 500 wedding in this location (including the daughter of Mr Howe)

Sometimes the path gets a bit squishy!

They have placed a dormant Stalactite and stalagmite for all those who want to touch...like ME! The reason is cuz the salt/sweat from your fingertips would make the natural growth stop.

This chamber has a "pipe organ".....it's really quite amazing!!

If you look at this formation long enough, you will see a witch

on vacation!!!

off we go! spent the last few days at a B&B in upstate NY (we were 2 minutes away from Windham Mtn & 20 minutes away from Hunter Mtn....and we visited both places!)

Here is us spending the first 2.5 hrs of our vacation:

thank goodness randy was driving...although it was mostly highway driving, the roads were very snowy {{BRRRRRRRR}}

...boy is it hard for me to sit in the passenger seat for very long! I can tell you I have seen this past week signs for: deer crossing, horse crossing, tractor crossing, kiddie crossing & even cow crossing!

we stopped along the way and visited a few places, including Saugerties, NY...we were prepared to see a pretty B&B, but this place blew us away!!!!

nothing beat a homey breakfast at a B&B!!!!

Here is us the next day taking out the snowmobile (no comment on how they MIGHT tip if you pull too hard on a turn)

craigslist

i cannot get over how easy i had it with selling my dining room table on craigslist!!! I waited until after my new table was delivered (last sunday) to finally getting around to posting it & the very first person who responded to my ad, stopped by today & bought it.
WOW!!!!
The best thing is that I've been on vacation for this past week, so they waited an entire week while I was away to come by to take a look at the set.
In less then 5 minutes I had cash in hand & the table/chairs in the back of the buyers truck.
SWEET!!!!

Todd's Bris

Yesterday afternoon, Todd had his BRIS. He was an amazing little man who only cried for a few minutes. Afterward, Neil announced to all that who his little boy was named after. "Todd" is for his dad, Ted. "Jacob" is for sherri's grandfather, Jack. Here are some pics from the event:
