Morning in Vermont

Took this picture at about 6:00 this morning. Although it was only about five degrees Fahrenheit, it was so calm and still that me and Sidd found it bareable to take an early morning walk.

SNOW DAY

Well today Daddy had the day off from school. So Gramma came up and played with Cass so that Daddy could get some plowing and shoveling done. Then that afternoon they all decided to hike down to Gramma's. The woods were just perfect after last night's storm. Cass had also mastered driving her snow machine down the hill, or so she thought. Her response to falling off the snowmobile,"Crash and Burn".

Sidd Turns 7

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIDD

Last night we celebrated Sidd's seventh birthday. Cassidy and Daddy made a bone shaped meatloaf and put candles in it for his cake. After singing Happy Birthday, we presented Sidd with his cake and he loved it. It is hard to believe that it has been seven years since Errin brought the "little guy" home. He has made himself a reall part of ouir family and has developed quite the unique personality(some good, some bad). We all love him for who is he

KOLBY & BRAYDEN HAPPY BIRTHDAY

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KOLBY & BRAYDEN

Today, Kolby and Brayden will both be celebrating their birthdays. The whole family is headed over to their house for a party. Kolby is going to be 6 and Brayden is going to be 3. Cass always enjoys the time spent with "The Boys". Before we know it they will all be in school together.

Cassidy

"Ah, child of countless trees. Ah, child of boundless seas. What you are, what you're meant to be. Speaks his name, though you were born to me. Born to me." GD

This is our little angel. Born on March 6, 2004, Cassidy Clara Pickering has been the greatest thing in our lives. Errin and I have enjoyed the wonders of watching her grow up to be such a tremendous little person.

Our House

This is kind of the center of it all in our little world. We built this house together and moved in on Christmas Eve 2000. We couldn't have done it without a lot of help from family and friends. Over the past seven years the house has evolved into the cozy little home we had hoped it would be.
