Silliness with Sonia and Nuno

Our good friend Nuno moved to L.A. after graduation last year to try to find work, but ultimately decided that his heart (and his love) remained in Boston, so now he’s back!

A rainy Saturday with friends

Some February footage

I haven’t been posting that frequently lately, but we’ve been just a busy as ever. As we wait out the gloomy tail-end of winter, Sylvie and I have been having lots of fun together indoors. Here’s a glimpse into some of our silly moments this month. A fun new game: And another: A sweet snack:
