Obsessed with Animals

I don't know what the deal was but in the Boston area they are obsessed with animal names. We would ask someone where a good place to eat and these were some of their replies, "Black Cow, Barking Dog, Black Dog." No one ever told us the Barking Cow though so I guess that's good.

I'm so surprised we didn't get kicked out of the MFA, he can be so immature some times ;0)

Lollipops

Rainy Days are perfectly wonderful for lollipop making.

Made Me Cry

On the plane home yesterday I was scrolling through my pictures and I realized how much I missed my kids. I'm such a baby I started crying, it's a good thing no one was sitting next to me.

Cousin Fun

Red Sox

This is just part of my little team. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to take pictures (this was taken with my camera by another mom). I'm so sad I won't get to see these little guys anymore. T-ball has definitely been one of my all-time favorite things to do. :)

Big Helpers

We needed to get life jackets out of the boat but a week of rain made it a bit difficult. No fear our underwear superheros came to our rescue.

Stowaway

She knew something was going on and she wanted to go. She was upset until she realized she got to go our to Papa Guy's house with the kids. She was jumping up and down the moment we exited the freeway heading out to his house.

Leech

Brook is squishing the leech we found in AF Reservoir. Yep, that's right we found a leech. None of us ever knew it was even possible, okay maybe possible, but totally not acceptable. We are hoping it was the only one and we've destroyed it there by saving everyone else from the blood sucking creatures. You're welcome.

The Redwoods

K, I know this is cheating but I had to post this picture. That's my dad next to those amazing Redwoods. We went here when I was about 11 and it is soooo amazing. Anyway, this picture is thanks to my beautiful mom.

Boys are so lucky, when they have to go they can go anywhere.
