Spring update

Some very out of order spring photos:


Take your daughter to work day at Lincoln Lab--Avonlea Jane was very clear that she needed to wear business casual for her office day

Will's art on display at the school gallery night--His flower is the green one with the red center above his head.


Urbanscapes (His is the one above his head.)



(His is the one behind his head.)


Monet's Waterlillies (His is the one above him.)



Enjoying their Easter baskets
We stayed home from our church service and egg hunt because Avonlea Jane was sick.

Our spread for a St. Patrick's Day fellowship


At the PEM, participating in their architectural engineering project. He had to choose two design challenges: sustainability (as seen by his reflective solar paneling on the roof) and space flexibility (as seen by the lack of internal walls). He also had to make it to scale, though for better heating efficiency, he lowered his ceilings slightly. He designed and built a Hot and Warn Ice Cream Parlor in the Arctic (thus the lack of cold ice cream, because who wants to eat cold things in the tundra?). For a touch of whimsy, you get from the second to first floor by fire pole. He also got the chance to explain/defend his choices to a pair of real architects.


At the Museum of Science electricity demo

I don't have many pictures of A on the field, because I was too busy coaching to take them. 


Before their practice officially started, they let Will go in goal.

After a month of soccer, Avonlea Jane actually got competitive and a little aggressive on the field.
