What Kel and I might have looked like in 1812

Thanks to Megan Malvern for thinking of such a fun take-home present at the wedding this past Sunday. It was a great day and now we have this keepsake to remember the fab event by!!

VERY CUTE little visitor

Six month old Addison Grace Mahony came to visit us with her mom, grandparents and uncle. Kel and I were smitten at once with her big blue eyes and alluring smile. TOO CUTE. No really, it was ridiculous. She knows how to work the crowd and smile on cue!

I even held her for a while... warming up to the whole holding babies thing right now...

Posse Reunion 2008

Big success in 2008. We all came back together having last congregated as a group at our wedding. We had a big toast to all the things to come this year tho I didn't get to really partake in the lovely champagne Peter Barrett shared with the group...happy days.

Kel Unafraid

The water was probably 65 degrees at the Bouquet River and Kel was brave enough to go in. I was way wimpier so I just took some action shots. Gorgeous day.

View From Above

That's Kel, me, Jenny, Maya, Lyla, Rod, Jessie, Sophie, Sam, Tucker and assorted stuffed animals about to hike the Brothers in Keene Valley. Some of us were proud do to one of the brothers...others were more ambitious.

Baby Kelly had no aversions to hiking...thanks to Kara for loaning me the maternity shorts...tough fashion choice but there's no way around it really.

Great views from the top and some beautiful mushrooms popping out of the foliage on our way up.

The Skeptic

I am talking about my beautiful Godson George Vermylen Thornton XVI (well there is no 'XVI' but it looks like there should be). I think George is as skeptical of me as I am of my own mothering skills..... onwards and upwards. George is showing off his brand new PJs imported just for him by his uncle Rob on his trip from Cambodia.

The Natural

I'm talking about Kel. He is a natural daddy-to-be. Myself? I am a bit timid still... Here is a picture of Kel feeding Taylor Zarou (it could actually be Taylor's twin Davis...). But either way the baby was very content in Kel's supportive arms.
