Massachusetts play day

For midwinter break the kids went to Massachusetts for a whole week with Michael. On the first day, they relaxed at his house, to give them a transition day for the jet lag. Jordan slept until two in the afternoon! Aaron, however, was up at a pretty normal hour, and delightedly helped make breakfast. He came home with clear instructions for me about how to make Uncle Michael’s extremely delicious pancakes.

There was some high-quality sledding.



Aaron also helped Michael with some important chores, including running the snowblower and visiting an elderly neighbor to help feed her birds.

When Jordan finally woke up, Michael took them on go-karts. This is an experience our kids have never had and they were, of course, totally blown away. Coolest uncle ever!
