Any sunny day is a good day for the beach with friends!
Ready for the grill! The guys did well.
We played trucks SO hard this day while learning about sharing and math ('you have one truck, he has two tucks, when you put them together it's THREE trucks!') and learning the word 'innovation'.

It's not unusual for us to gather mussels or clams from the bay and cook them over a fire for a lunch.
Every Sunday we make pancakes before church. Here is David's idea of pancakes for two... Ha.

This is how you carve, right?
Thanksgiving was a small affair this year, but we're so grateful for loved ones we DID get to see! <3

Never too muddy for a cold snuggle with a cold dog mom.

Traveling and being outdoors are two of our favorite things! Here we are in New Mexico combining the two. We go there every year!
The best thing about growing up in Brooklyn is that the whole city is your playground! Here is David in a sidewalk jumping competition with a little friend.
