Lily starts ballet

Lily started ballet class today. We’re not sure what she is more excited about, the class or the cute dance outfit they all get to wear. Here she is proudly posing in it. She wore it all weekend after that first class.

Sophie, 7 months

You can just tell these sisters are going to be up to something soon. Sophie just turned 7 months and had her bangs trimmed for the first time. Here she and Lily are clowning around at our house. Lily is proudly wearing the fairy princess crown she and Mom made together one afternoon when she wanted to do a “project” (as she calls it). A few items from the sewing basket combined with some bows and decoration from the wrapping bin and presto...fairy princess!

Dorval's 35th Anniversary

The Dorval kids held an informal (and belated) anniversary celebration for Mom & Dad today. We took family pictures, had a lobster feast, swam, and just generally chilled out by the pool. The day concluded with a viewing of some old family home videos. A special thanks to Shelly for heading up that project. Great job Shelly!

Day at China Lake

The Morse family joined the fun this week. Julie braved the long road trip with her three boys to spend time with the family in Maine. Here Julie, David, KJ, Lily, & Chuck take a canoe ride at the Phillips camp in China, ME.
