Palm Trees and Beach Cookies

 I made these for a bachelorette weekend in South Carolina for a friend of mine from Stroller Strong.  They came out so cute!!

Another Red Sox game

 Aidan had a game today and it was a beautiful night!  Unusual for this year - Spring has been cold and wet!!  Aidan got a great hit - it ALMOST went over the fence.  It hit the ground right in front of the fence and bounced over - definitely the farthest hit that he's ever had! Pretty exciting!!!

Emmy and Aoife Lacrosse

 Aoife and Emmy both had lacrosse games today!  Luckily they were spread out enough across the day that I could go to both games.  Usually we have to split forces and watch games across town at the same time.  Today was great - good weather AND different game times.
Both girls got to spend some time in goal today.  They both made some great saves and seemed to enjoy it!

Planting with the First Grade

 This morning I went over to the school to help the first grade plant some plants!  It was so fun and some of the kids had never planted anything before and it was great to see them be so into it!!!

Spring Garden

 It's been a cool Spring and our garden is off to a slow start!  I'm sure by the end of the summer, things will look much different so here are a few pictures of where we started from!
Tomatoes with basil and marigolds to keep the bugs away!

Aoife and Emmy's Lacrosse

 Emmy and Aoife are playing on separate teams this year.  It certainly makes for busy Sundays!!!  They are both doing great!  Emmy has decided that she would like to play goalie - so she plays in goal for half of every game.  She's really getting better and has made a whole bunch of saves!  Aoife does great at middy and has scored a bunch of goals! Since Emmy has moved up to the big field this year, it's harder to get good pictures with them being so far away!!
