Cherry Blossom Festival 2013

We just returned from a wonderful day at the Cherry Blossom Festival at Brooklyn Botanic Garden.
The cherry blossoms are always so beautiful and the kids were impressed too :)

Happy Easter 2013!

Easter was lots of fun complete with dying eggs, a visit from grandma and grandpa and a ride on Jane's Carousel. Oh yeah and an Easter egg hunt too!

Rocking Horse Ranch - March 2013

We just spent a great couple of days at Rocking Horse Ranch Resort for spring break this year. We had so much fun. Some of the highlights included a horse drawn carriage ride, snow tubing, indoor water park with kiddie slides, indoor bouncy house and air powered NERF cannons. And the food was pretty good too because every night they had a chocolate fountain (Simon's favorite).
Here are my cowboys:

And Sam riding an ACTUAL HORSE! :) I love how his little legs don't reach the stirrups.

Snow!

You know how it is. You spend 45 minutes putting on the snowsuit to be out in the snow for 5 minutes. Yep Sam delivered on that promise :)

Luckily, Simon enjoyed the snow a bit more.

Happy New Year, 2013!

Happy New Year from the Roths!

(and who wouldn't want to celebrate with Batman and sparkling cider at 8:30 in the evening?!)

A Christmas Miracle! Sam Walks! :)

Continuing in the tradition of doing something extra special on a holiday, Sam figured out how to walk on Christmas (Simon walked on Thanksgiving)! Here is Sam walking and quite happy with himself!
