Blast from the Past: March 2012

Last Christmas, the Neuman blog took a nice long break. As a result, some of our family fun was not documented from the first two thirds of 2012. Here's a look back at March 2012, so you won't feel like you missed anything.

We wore some cool shades...

Celebrated March Madness...
Punkin' and Grandma came to visit...







Paige went to the dentist for the first time...
Paige went to a "Cars" birthday party and burned rubber...

We celebrated Valentine's Day in our jammies (or jomamas as Paige likes to say)...

Cathie threw a terrific Valentine's Day party...


We laughed...
We ate pink pancakes on Doug's birthday...
We made our own sundaes...
And we lunched with friends...

Blast from the Past: January 2012

Last Christmas, the Neuman blog took a nice long break. As a result, some of our family fun was not documented from the first two thirds of 2012. Here's a look back at January 2012, so you won't feel like you missed anything.

Just after New Years, we took Hannah to Copper Mountain to visit her uncle Greg and try skiing for the first time. She went to "ski school" for two days while Doug and I skied with Greg. We also tried tubing, a huge hit, and visited an ice castle.











While we were gone, Paige partied with Punkin' and Grandpa...

And finally, a glimpse of our future...yikes!

Ee i ee i oh!

We loaded up our car this past weekend and set out to tour some of the farms that sell their wares at our local farmers' markets as part of the annual Eastern Triangle Farm Tour. We had no idea what to expect. We picked out three farms in Franklin and Granville counties we thought sounded interesting and hit the road. The weather wasn't great, but we avoided rain for the most part and the kids had a really good time. We ended up only visiting two of the farms we picked because we ran out of time. The first raised mostly poultry and was a small family farm. The second farm had sheep, beef cattle, heritage turkeys, ducks, quail, peafowl, guineas, Berkshire hogs, Amerucana hens, and a Percheron draft horse (which the kids got to ride).
