Our Last RoadTrip of 2009

Jakobi 5 months

Jakobi is rolling all over the place and loves to squawk and squawk! She is also very happy that Thomas came back after being gone 10 days. We thought the coyotes got him but he showed up yesterday and I followed his tracks and discovered he'd been across the road holed up in Daniel's barn!



Colleen is running a playgroup in our town and last week they made gingerbread houses.

The Montshire Science Museum

Before heading to NYC we met up with John and Eden at the Montshire Science Museum in White River Junction.



Gaelen was with us for his school break and it was fun for him to hang with all 3 of his sisters.

There was a big dino exhibit and Eden and Ambiana took a drive through the Pleistocene era.



Visiting Debbie, Aaron & Hayden in NJ

Then it was off to Weehawken NJ across the Hudson from NYC where we met 2 month old Hayden for the first time. Debbie is an awesome Mom and Aaron a proud papa. We spent 3 nights with them and had lots of fun.

On the last day of the year I took Gaelen and Ambiana on a big city adventure. We rode buses and trains and headed under the Hudson, across Manhatten, and then over the East River via the Brooklyn Bridge.

Under the bridge where we got Ice Cream!


Gaelen really wanted to see the Statue of Liberty so we took him to Liberty Park to get a good view of it.

Happy Soulstice!

With the turning of the year we've been real busy and i've been slacking on the blog. We celebrated the Soulstice 4 days running with ceremonies in Burlington and at our home, a party at All Together Now where Ambiana goes to Music Together and a dream ritual at home on the 4th night of the long nights!

Gaelen is with us for a week over the holidays and we are happy to have him. We are planning on going to NYC to visit Debbi and Aaron and their new baby Hayden for New Years.

On the way to get gaelen I took a detour to the IMAX theatre in Reading MA to see the 3D IMAX version of AVATAR, it was unbelievably beautiful and very honoring of the Mother of Us ALL and the 3D was amazing.

Jakobi's hair is getting long, her new thing is to roll over and over and over and to bang anything she has in her hand up and down super fast whacking everything and anyone including herself that gets in the way.

Here are a couple of vids of the kids! Enjoy!
