Hikers

Second post of the night! (See below)

Yesterday, another beautiful Memorial Day weekend day, we went for the girls' first hike in Noanet Woodlands in Dover, MA. They did great and we really didn't carry them too much. It was about a 1/2 mile each way, and we stopped for a picnic in the middle. We hiked to an old dam and mill site. The girls saw a snake, a frog, and more dogs than we could count!

Here we come!



Memorial Day

I know, I'm way overdue for a few updates. Now that the TV season has ended, and we've finally unpacked from Hawaii, I'll have time to catch up. :)

I'll be blogging in reverse order for a while, so let's start with today.

We had an awesome Memorial Day. First, we went to the Auburn, MA, Memorial Day parade with Grandma Gerry, Grandpa Scott, and Great-Gram Gerry. Auburn even got military fly-over! The girls loved it.



Then after some raucous hide-and-seek with Auntie Sandy at Grandma's house, we went to Davis' Farmland. The girls are at the absolute perfect age for this place and we all had a blast. We were really impressed, the weather was great, and the girls ran around the "spray 'n play" area for a while at the end. We weren't sure we were going to get them to leave!

Riley's absolutely favorite part of the day - milking the fake cow (that squirted water). It's all she wanted to do.


More to come soon - I know I promised this before, but I mean it this time!

Interim Post

You'll have to wait a little longer for Hawaii pictures, it's been far harder to catch up on life and get back in to the swing of things than I anticipated!

Aloha

And we're back! For those of you who didn't know we were gone, Chris and I just spent a week in Hawaii, without Hailey & Riley! We went for our friends Garin and Christina's wedding.

Chris and I have been up for about 30 hours, so this is all you get for now: our hula girls enjoying their gifts from Hawaii.



More to come over the next few days. Good night!
