Well we had an awesome weekend. Thursday was a nice night out in IV, my parents boat. We went over to Mackerel cove and had a swim and then dinner. What a way to cool off in the evening. Friday we had the annual Portuguese feast near Nikki’s parents house. That night we spent the night, then we went […]

This past week was the fourth of July obviously. This means a huge party for Andy for his Bday down at the cottage, lots of boating, and fireworks! Elias got out on the tubes behind Pop Pop’s boat. Bella is almost walking. We went out on Bumpa’s boat Sunday to catch the tall ships, then […]

Made it out to my third straight day of the America’s Cup World Series here in Newport. This has been amazing to watch. These boats are amazing to watch, but to watch them sail in the exact water we race on every tuesday night is just amazing. They’re literally stored a 1/4 mile from where […]

I’ve been lucky enough to go watch both of the first two days of the America’s Cup World Series down in Newport this week. It’s amazing to see these boats race, they’re so fast and so close! New Zealand capsized around the weather mark yesterday right in front of us. They worked all night and […]

Boat have been sailing starting this past week, but yesterday (Saturday) seems like it’s the first day they’ve all made it out on the water together. These boats are VERY impressive. […]

Well we have a snaggletoothed corn eater on our hands. Bella LOVES corn on the cob. She’ll eat a few rings around an ear w/o much trouble. We basically let her share and ear with Elias. She’s also almost walking. She’ll take 3~5 steps from one of us to the other, and she can stand […]

The RI Air National Guard air show is basically down the block from our house. So every year we go enjoy the show w/o the hassles of parking. Yes I’ve been to the actual show and it IS much better if you go, thanks to announcers and static displays we miss, but it’s also nice […]

I’m a bit late posting these. In fact the winners have already smashed the record over a day ago! The shot at the top is of Rambler, the new owner of the record at 39h 39m and 18s. I was lucky enough to get invited out on a boat this year by my friends Jamie […]

Well Isabella is almost walking at this point. She’ll go from one of us to the other for about ~5 steps… And she’s got 3 teeth! She also loves to say “hi” and “bye” to people when we’re out and about. She’s really changing a lot lately, but also getting into MUCH more trouble than […]

I’ve been super busy this last week getting some lighthouses shot for the project I’m working on. That’s meant lots of sunrises (up at 4am) and a super fun adventure going out to Prudence Island on the 6am ferry, coming back on the 8:30am, then going down to Point Judith and taking the 11am out […]

Well, not technically yet… but Memorial Day pretty much means it’s summer for us. It’s been another busy week for me. I had refinery work one morning, I had to sign my prints that are in the picture this gallery in PVD, then a forester oil change… I also rode my bike ~50 miles last […]

We had another busy week this week. I’ve been working on a new website based around the lighthouses in Rhode Island. The ground work is in, but it’s certainly not a finished product yet. I’ve managed to get out and shoot all 21 lighthouses in the last 2 Fridays except for SouthEast light on Block […]

Oh, and it was mother’s day!!! Ha ha. We had a great weekend this weekend. Saturday we went down to the carnival in Newport which was a lot of fun. Not sure if the rides or the beach was the highlight though. Bella didn’t get much out of the carnival but LOVED the beach. Elias […]

Bella has 2 bottom teeth and some top teeth are coming soon. She’s stillllll not walking but is getting closer every day. She’s climbing […]
