A Visit to Gramma and Daddy Jim

 We made our nearly annual trip to Massachusetts this past week!  We drove up and spent a few days with my parents before spending a few days with Brendan's parents and then heading home.  It's tough living away from family and we love going to see them.  Unfortunately, it's our one vacation a year and we spend a LOT of it driving - up and back and between.  It's not what I would call a relaxing week but it's so worth it - lots of fun to be had and lots of memories made! 
Aoife helped Daddy Jim plant some beans that they had been growing, Declan loved playing in the car, in the yard and in the water!  We rode bikes, ate lobsters, roasted marshmallows and played in the sprinkler.  It was HOT so it was nice to get into the water a little bit!! I wish that we had more vacation time so we wouldn't be so rushed but one week is about all we can take at a time.  A day off here and there make a nice long weekend but going up to MA isn't really possible in 3 days!

A Visit from Gramma!

 Gramma came to visit us this week!  We had so much fun going to the park, eating out and we even went to the zoo before we took her to the airport on Monday.  We hope we see you soon!!!!!

A visit from Gramma and Daddy Jim

My parents drove down from Boston this weekend to visit and to help me out with the kids on Saturday since I was organizing a silent auction for Aidan's preschool. We had a lot of fun even though we didn't really get to do much of anything. Thanks for driving down Mom and Dad - it was great to see you!!
