Sometimes, technology is pretty incredible... Sarah, a 29 year old, hearing her voice for the very first time after receiving a hearing implant. Beautiful. Hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend. We are almost moved into our new place!!! woo hoo.  Will post pics soon Blessed for health, love and this life... Love and Gratitude! 

The leaves are changing and the weather has been incredible, so what better way to get to dinner then ride our bikes. We did a date night last night, Troy Stella and I at the Coyote Grill here in Waterville. Such a lovely evening......  Stella cruisin right outside our place.   Troy and Stella racing to the end. If you look at Troy's left leg he still has his compression sock on from his surgery last Friday. Today we went in for his post-op appointment and Dr. O'Neil gave him the thumbs up to go 100% in everything he does. Woo hoo!!! Thank you Dr. O'Neil!  The ride home was a bit dark. There was no moon but the stars were bright and the air was crisp. It was an awesome way to end a great day.  Packing up our house today and tomorrow so we can move on Friday....WOO HOO. We're so excited to get into our new place. Will post pics of the new place soon!  Love and Gratitude.....

Today Troy and I took a trip to Waterbury, Vermont to visit with PJ Dewey, the owner of Race Stock Sports and boot builder extraordinaire. His shop is IMPRESSIVE to say the least.  PJ at work...this guy knows a thing or two about the ski racing world. Before opening up this killer shop he was a service tech for the US Ski Team for Lange.  SO much cool schwag.  Skis lined wall to wall. His stock of race gear is impressive.  Every boys "wet dream" of a machine shop.  Where the magic happens.  www.racestocksports.com  CHECK IT OUT After grabbing a quick lunch we made the 2 hour drive back home. 4 hours of driving in Vermont and New Hampshire while the leaves are changing....I couldn't ask for a better day.  We got home just in time for Stella to get out of school and get her to swim team practice.  T-minus, 4 days till we move into our new place....WOO HOO!!!! Much love and Gratitude...

One of Stella's buddies was in town square this morning with her new puppy. We were all pretty smitten with Nala to say the least. Of course that opened to door to a family discussion of all of us wanting to have a family doggie. Unfortunately we came to the same conclusion we always do......we travel too much to justify  getting a doggie (as much as we all want one). It wouldn't be fair to leave the doggie for weeks at a time while we travel. Maybe someday.....until then..... Three week old Nala.  I have a feeling this wont be the end of our discussion on getting a family dog.  :) Much LoVe

We spent all morning out and about in Wateville. There are so many colors everywhere and we're not even at peak season yet.  A shot from town square. The entire valley is exploding with color. So many beautiful colors EVERYWHERE...  Love this place. Stella and I trying to be serious. Love this little one.  Sending out much Sunday LoVe

With Troy all laid up with his knee, Stella and I joined her friend Olivia and her mom for a girls movie outing. We stocked Troy up with lots of snacks and with football on I had a feeling he'd be fine for a few hours on his own.  ;)     We drove over the Frankonian Notch and into Littleton. Love my IPhone cause it takes awesome pictures. This is the Frankonian Notch at 80 mph.  We went and saw Dolphin....a must see. It was a great story and the girls LOVED it.  Excited for some family fun tomorrow.  *Much LoVe*

While Troy was in Chile in August, he took a bit of a digger. Luckily it could have been A LOT worse!!! A torn medial meniscus.  Dr. O'neil did an awesome job and Troy was in and out of there in a jiffy. Sending out so much gratitude for good health.  Much love!
