End of the Blog??

So I had about a month's worth of pictures to share on this blog and I finally sat down to do that tonight when I discovered that my blog has used up the 1G of free space. I didn't even know there was a limit! I need to now purchase space for a monthly fee. It's not much, but ughhh...every month-just don't want to pay for it, you know? I suppose I could do something crafty like start a new blog as a new user. Hmmm...I'm going to see how that goes. To be continued....

Grandma and Grandpa's Beach House

Grandma and Grandpa Masse built a beach house in York, Maine and move-in day was Saturday. The house is an 8-10 min walk from York Beach. We had a nice time moving, then going to dinner in York.
Dan walking from house to truck:
 Sebastien carrying pillows and putting them in the bedrooms. He was a good helper!
 The beach house!
 Everyone on the porch after all was moved in.
 My little beauty at dinner.

Haircuts and Soccer

I don't know if you remember all of the drama we used to go through in getting Sebastien a haircut. It used to be a disaster. Well about 6 months ago, I discovered Dot-to-Dot Doos in Hampstead and it's made all the difference. Little man can watch a movie and sit in a car while getting his hair cut. End of Drama.
 Genevieve has never had a haircut so she was thrilled when the hairdresser gave her a braid, just because.
 Due to some delays, the kids had their last tot soccer class today. Sebastien did well playing goalie. Here is Genevieve trying to score on Sebastien.
Smiling with their soccer medals! 
(Um...so yeah, it's cold now. I dislike it very much. It's also very dark very early. Ugh!)

Lapinski Cousins!

This post is a little out of order because two weekends ago, we went to visit my cousin Tony, Ana, Christopher and Olivia near Springfild, MA. We had such a good time and all the kids play so well together.
One of the highlights was carving pumpkins. Here Tony helps them draw faces on the pumpkins.
 Sebastien, Olivia and Christopher help clean out the "goop". Genevieve, in typical fashion, would not partake.
 The finished products.

Halloween - a bit delayed

We've had no internet for the past week...alas the lack of posts. Before that, we had no power due to Hurricane Sandy. Luckily we had no hurricane damage and the internet has been repaired and I can share some photos with you. The kids toggled between costumes for Halloween this year. Sebastien was sometiems a dinosaur (thanks to the Richards for the costume) and Peter Pan (last year's costume that still holds his favor). Genevieve went between Sleeping Beauty, Belle, and a Lady Bug. Luckily we had enough dress-up events for them to wear a variety.
Here they are at the Hampstead playgroup's Halloween party.
 At the Nolan's annual Halloween party, Sebastien had a blast running around outside with the bigger kids. Here he stopped to let me take his picture.
 This is the cake I made for that party.
