Happy 2015! It's been awhile since my last post- which was about my surgery. Since then I have gained two pounds! That's more then I've gained in the past year! We are getting adjusted to my new way of eating and trying new recipes.
It's been a very long and busy winter here on Cape Cod- and with a ridiculous amount of snow, it looks like we still have a long way to go! We've been trying to embrace New England's cold lifestyle, but sometimes we just want some warm sunshine!
This Christmas (well in 2014), we stayed home and had Christmas morning at our house- the first time EVER with our whole family! I got some pretty cool presents- my favorite of which was this cool sled! (I got to use it a few times so far, to get around the neighborhood after our first big storm because we couldn't push my chair in all that snow).
I also got some cool adaptive switch toys: penguin roller coaster, an airplane and a dancing fox (of course he plays, "What does the fox say?". We had Christmas dinner at Mema's and Grandpa Al's house. It was fun to see cousins and eat lots of good food!
The day after Christmas we had a big surprise party for mom because it was her 40th birthday. She had no idea we were having a party- we really tricked her! I was really good a keeping the secret. It was supposed to be a 70's party because mom was born then (wow, that seems like a LONG time ago), but only a few people dressed up.
A few days after the party we got to go on a ski trip to Mount Sunapee in New Hampshire. It's our favorite place! I got to ski for two days in a row! We had so much fun and it wasn't too cold either. Our hotel had a pool we got to swim in too.

On New Year's Eve Dad took us too all kinds of shows for First Night while mom was volunteering at the kids art studio workshop. We did some ice skating too over winter vacation.

Since the new year we have missed so much school, luckily I had my sled so I could get around in the snow. We got to go back to Mt. Sunapee for a Mom's and kids trip! I got to ski for the whole day- my first time ever!

At the beginning of our February break I got to carry the rings in my Mema's wedding. We weren't able to take pictures in the church, though. I did get to dance a lot at the reception! It was a great time!

We went to North Conway for part of our vacation too. More skiing! It was so cold- but I was able to last the whole day! I will post more pictures from that trip soon. I even have a video of me going through the race course!

Our last adventure over vacation was going to see Frozen on Ice. Anna, Elsa and Olaf were all there and it was so COOL!
