Big - Little guy at Bigelow Hollow

Robby and I went a\on a great explore around Bigelow pond. Robby was the leader, tirelessly searching for the next yellow marker, and advising on the upcoming terrain so that his dad could get over the rocks. Great job Robby!

Daily Happy: Horsebarn Hill

We spend a lot of time on the weekends doing outdoor adventures. Mother nature is one hell of babysitter. And when the payoff includes the Uconn Dairy Bar.....well that's a no brainer.


"C'mon daddy, run!"


We've got to see the cows






Where could everyone be going?


That's right


Ice Cream!

It's chocolate ice cream with sprinkles under whip cream, as Robby says it.

July 5th Celebrations (Daily Happy Video Stylez!)

We spent July 5th with the family in Brookfield. Robby had a great time with Summer and Noell, and enjoyed the sprinkler. When we got back to Ashford, Robby slept through over an hour of Fireworks. It was the best show we've seen in years.

Ski-Ball

It's a game that Robby and I play in the basement. We use the plastics golf clubs Robby got for his first birthday and hit the big orange ball back and forth. Robby came up with the name, and he's also the Ski-Ball champ. Check him out:

Lake Time!

Longer, sunnier days mean more time to spend at the lake. We just walk down from the house and Robby takes care of the rest!
