Three Pre-Easter March Celebrations

In early March we attended two birthday parties.
One for Dr. Seuss who would be turning 112, and our friend Jesse Patrick was who turning 4.  We also had a great time at the South Shore Children's Museum St. Patrick's Day Party.


Everyone who came to Dr. Suess's Birthday received a party favor of a 'Cat in the Hat' nose.


'Pin the Hat on the Cat' in the Children's Library.


'The Cat' is holding baby J in her arms. Unfortunately we aren't allowed to share his face on the internet yet and the sweet way he was looking up at her.

Jesse's 4th Birthday


Following the teacher's lead to sketch out her painting alongside the birthday boy.


Sophia's Daddy made a painting for her to hang in her room next to the one she created.

MassArt


On a Saturday morning we made our way towards Boston to visit our friends Alex, Kim and their daughter Elyse for a pancake brunch.


We then caravanned to MassArt where Joshua's sister is an Art Education professor.




As part of their education, the students put on a wonderful community day, geared towards teaching children about art.



The activities are interactive for all ages, including those as young as baby J.



Grammie and Grandpa made the trip down from New Hampshire to play for the day as well!

Dear J-Man, Happy 5th Birthday! Does this make you a BIG kid?  You love bouncing off the  walls, just like your favorite superhero, Spider-M...
