Leigh and Abram's Clan. Tuesday, January 24, 2012. Here is a picture of Excalibur at 9:30 at night. Vegas is pretty outside with all the buildings lit up. It is loud and difficult to negotiate with a family inside. Our rooms across the hall from each other. This is the view from one of the rooms. The next day we ventured out to see other casinos and try to find some things to do. Here's our hotel during the day. We walked into MGM studios casino. In the middle of it were two huge lions! This was extremel...

Leigh and Abram's Clan: Valentine's Day Hike
http://dancyclan.blogspot.com/2012/02/valentines-day-hike.html
Leigh and Abram's Clan. Monday, February 20, 2012. Abram and I celebrated Valentine's Day with a long hike. The weekend before Valentine's Day, he had asked what I wanted to do. Having dinner on a week night when most places are already booked did not seem fun to me. I'd rather be active, so I suggested hiking. The Midstate Trail goes north to south through the middle of Massachusetts. It is broken up into several sections. I wanted to begin at the Barre Falls because I'm intrigued by falls. We walked fo...

Leigh and Abram's Clan. Friday, November 25, 2011. Tobin racing at Districts. With the ground covered in snow the MIAA organization did not know where they could hold a Leagues meet.

MIAA decided to use the Districts race to determine the League results. Tobin running around the first mile. the weather is very cold, maybe ...

Leigh and Abram's Clan. Sunday, October 23, 2011. CA vacation part 2: hiking up and down the 4 Mile Hike. It has been difficult to divide my pictures into appropriate, but brief blogs. I decided to capture the 4 mile hike by itself in a blog. Barbara mentioned to me that she wanted to hike a long hike on Wed of our vacation and wanted to know if Abram and I and others were interested. Of course Abram and I wanted to jump at the opportunity! I believe this spot is called Cathedral point. This is half dome.

Leigh and Abram's Clan. Wednesday, May 4, 2011. Tobin gets his license and Rachel has a cello recital. On April 9th, Tobin took his driver's test and passed! He now is a legal driver in Massachusetts. Wow, she is going to be 16 in December. Time is flying too quickly. Here is a brownie we decorated with powder sugar to celebrate his license. Tobin was so relieved once his test was over that he neglected to really pay attention to what the driving instructor said about his permit and license! Abram took R...

Leigh and Abram's Clan. Tuesday, April 26, 2011. Tobin made his confirmation on Tuesday April 12. Nettie and Russ met us at the church. Tobin chose Russ, his godfather, to be his sponsor. One of the suggestions given to the confirmandees was to connect your baptism with Confirmation. Tobin chose to do so. Here Sarai is pinning Russ with a sponsor pin we gave him. While Nettie is pinning Tobin with a dove pin. Since the bishop did take time for each candidate, and there were 55 of them, Confirmation mass ...

Leigh and Abram's Clan. Monday, October 29, 2012. Hiking on a Gorgeous Fall Day. Abram and I enjoy hiking. We have made it a point to walk or hike several miles each weekend since our biking accident in August. Up until October 21st, none of our children would join us. I decide to insist Carmen and Rachel come "walking in the woods" with us. Sarai was working that day so she couldn't come. Here is the image of the fall leaves at the beginning of our trail. We planned on hiking up Mt. Wachusett. Abram and...

Leigh and Abram's Clan. Thursday, January 27, 2011. Abram is a Pilot! Abram has his private pilot license! On Saturday, January 22nd 2011, Abram took his oral exam and flight test. I met him at the Hanscom airport to wait for the answer as to whether he passed or not! Of course he did! Sarai made this cake for him. Here's Abram with the plane he took his test in. After he was approved as a pilot we took a celebratory flight back to Worcester. Love the sunset over the snow and reflecting off the clouds.
