The Lydon family celebrated yet another amazing family Christmas this past year of 2011! With the emphasis on family we managed to celebrate Christmas with all of our family... a great visit with sister Lydon, our traditional Christmas eve mass celebration followed by Christmas eve dinner with the Lydon and Noseworthy families, at our house. Art and Connie joined us (early) Christmas morning to watch the kiddos tear apart the thousand of gifts. Of course Christmas was completed with an amazing meal and more presents at Mom and Dads.
After a couple of days of rest we packed up our ski gear and headed west to join our west coast family and share a ski vacation with Kevin and Judy in Sun Valley Idaho.
Thinking back on our Christmas holidays, the best part was being with all our families, east and west. We love you all!!!

The Wheels Come Off
Kya kicked butt this late summer and learned to ride her bike without her training wheels! We are so proud of her and she loves the freedom of riding without the training wheels. Push play and have a look at her go:

Legs for Literacy 2011
Greg and I decided to head to Moncton to run in the Legs for Literacy event. Greg ran the 10K race and I ran my third half marathon of 2011. We were both happy with the results. Greg finished in 54 minutes and I finally broke the 2 hour time and finished at 1:59.
Greg met up with me and ran the last 1K with me. It was great to have him encouraging me to give it my all to the end.
These pictures were passed along to us from friends who were there cheering us on.

Well, we are excited to say that we recently celebrated our first decade wedding anniversary! We managed to sneak out of town for a get away trip and we decided to go hiking in Fundy National Park. We rented a "yurt" for the weekend and hiked and hiked during the day and had some nice relaxing time in the evening. It was awesome spending time together, just the two of us! Love you and heres to decades more!!

Summer 2011
Wow!! what an amazing summer us Lydon's have had! Tons of camping trips, visits to friends cottages, a cross continental trip to Seattle, our annual trip over to PEI, and an amazing wedding. Looking back through all our pictures, the overwelming task to simply paraphrase such an awesome summer doesnt seem possible. With only one weekend left over till the unofficial end of Summer, labor day weekend is always a bitter sweet weekend. Im sure the post to follow will jog some good memories.
Nicki Wedding
A summer would not be complete without a wedding! I was lucky and honored to be asked to be in Geoff and Umi's wedding this August. Nothing better than celebrating an amazing friends wedding with all of your childhood friends! Wow! Congrats Geoff and Umi!!
The Harvey Cottage
This years trip to the Harvey's Cottage included a total of four couples. The Jackman's, the McCarthy's, us and of course the Harvey family. A mere total of 16 of us hanging out at an absolutely beautiful cottage setting on the gorgeous Tobique River. Thank you Harvey family for a great weekend!
PEI 2011
The Lydon family trip to Prince Edward Island has become our annual trip to celebrate Briana's birthday and to search of the perfect vacation rental. This years cottage candidate was located on the eastern end of the island was indeed an amazing cottage and certainly a beautiful part of the island. All the usual events took place including tons of beach time and the mandatory lobster dinner.
Vacation in Seattle
We have been so blessed to recently have the Cosens family join our family. We gladly accepted an invitation to visit them in Seattle this summer and we are so glad we did. Our trip to the west coast was amazing. Our time together was so filled with fun and events. We consider ourselves so lucky to have the Cosens family apart of our family and cant wait to hook up again! Love you guys and see you soon! The Lydon's
Kouchibougac Camping Trip
Noah and Kya were lucky to go on a vacation with Grammie and Papa to Ontario. Therefore, Holly, Briana and I were left to entertain ourselves. We decided to gear up the camper and head to Kouchibougac. This amazing National Park is perfect for a bicycling vacation. Aside from the mosquitoes eating us alive, we had a great time together, just the three of us!
