Wyatt is nine years old. Happy Birthday, Wyatt! February was a month of winter sports. Wyatt’s Bedford Bears hockey team continued play at Chelsea Piers in Connecticut. For his primary birthday gift, Wyatt chose to learn to snowboard over the February school break. After a stop on a snowy day at Stratton Mountain, the family spent a few days at Killington Mountain Resort in Vermont. Wyatt took snowboarding lessons each morning, and rode with his family in the afternoon. On his actual birthday, Wyatt enjoyed a day at home with cake and gifts. Just over a week later, the family took another ski trip, that time to Gore Mountain in New York’s Adirondack Mountains.

Wyatt had a busy January. A big highlight was a ski trip to Vermont around the New Year.

Wyatt also went to a couple of parties in January, and he spent a few hours in a trampoline park.
