February 2018

We kicked off February with a trip to sunny Florida to see my parents!!

My crew met me out running… Hard to believe the lead runner here is 80!

Love our time with my parents!

My beach blond sporting the forehead bun…

A night out with the crew!

Was tough returning to the New England’s endless winter… but we missed our Bella.

While she had a busy week with endless play time, she was a little put out with our absence.

Jordan and Garrett took a photography class at school so we went to one of our favorite stomping grounds for some landscape options…

Cranes Beach, Ipswich MA

It doesn’t matter what the weather is… (unless rain of course) every time we go to this beach we capture something different. Tonights moon was incredible. This photo does not do it justice!

Hard to tell in this photo, but Ayden is actually holding the moon in her hand!

Love this particular photo because it truly illustrates one of my most favorite passions… Bella and I walking the beach. No one is ever there… the beach is completely ours and I cherish my quiet walks with my best friend…

Ipswich Muscles

Total bonus hooking up with our neighborhood best friend, Benny!

Wrapping up a cool February evening... and hoping March brings us some warmer weather!

January Update Welcome 2018

Not going to lie.. not much goes on in New England in January as it feels like your are knee deep in survival season! COLD, freezing rain or snow… fun!

Freshman Dance: Jordan sporting new new brace and status post ACL/Meniscus repair… nothing keeping her down!

Our backyard! My two hiking pals!

Love our weekend morning hikes!

The two B’s: Bella and her best friend Benny

Had to include this pic - Garrett is taking a photography class and this is one that he took to submit.

The only one that is left in the household willing to get photographed is Bella!

Or at least she is the only one that does verbally bitch about being photographed.

December Update! 2017

Have to give photo rights to Garrett for this one.. I signed him up for a photography class and I was so impressed by this photo he took of Bella. You can even see his reflection in Bella’s eye. Great photo Garrett… and beautiful model, Bella!

Morning after a snow storm… Love how peaceful the house looks and knowing that my crew is still sound asleep inside. Can’t wait to break out the sleds

Think Bella has had enough outside play…

I think she wants to come in and find her cozy blanket for her nap!

Sisters Crossing

Named after my sister, Jennifer

Can’t say I will brave it today to get across, but still laugh remember my sisters visit and her attempt.

Cozy reading day in Ayden’s cave.

We ventured out in the evening to celebrate two amazing teenagers!!!!!

Garrett turns 13 and Jordan turns 15!!!

Team Girl Carey!!!

Had to include this amazing photo of my parents. The past two years has been rough for them. My mom started dialysis over a year ago and the thought that this procedure she needs to endure three days a week for close to four hours is keeping her alive is a tribute to her dedication for choosing life! This has not come without a cost and to see them both out celebrating the holidays together is nothing short of amazing!

Rotating reading spots… Bella is a sucker for anyone willing to lay down with a narcolepsy blanket!

My Bella Boo!

waiting on any neighborhood friends willing to walk by and play some tag! She will sit here for hours waiting!

With the sun setting… and a New Year about to begin.

Where will our adventures take us next? Happy 2018!!
