Summer Happenings

This is Nathan's kitty. He has taken to calling her "my little one".




Thomas cuts me a bouquet every summer from our yard usually without my knowing it...what a pleasant surprise!



For any of you who know Boston's road reporting...here is the infamous Citgo sign. We had a bit of time before the game and we got sick of hearing two bad cases of the gimmies, so we went to watch Route 90 traffic.



This statue, outside of Fenway Park is Ted Williams giving his cap to a cancer patient...he was a big supporter of the Jimmy fund and we now have a tunnel named after him.



Finally, a picture inside Fenway park before the game. It took several innings before the boys started to take interest in what was going on. Then we wanted to leave at the seventh inning and they didn't want to! We stayed until the end of the eighth and missed the best part of the game. Apparently in the ninth, David Ortiz thought the pitcher was trying to hit him with the ball and decided to take it up with him.

All the boys can talk about is convention. Everything smells like it to them...cut vegetables, wet pine needles, early morning, cut grass (like Altamont, I was told). Thomas just drew me a map of Milford, slightly out of scale, but complete! They are so excited!

Fourth of July

The parade watchers.

Finally, cooling off in a inlet.






Chilling after all that play!



Going out to see the fireworks in Plymouth harbor.



I think I need a frame for this picture!

Last Day of School and On

Getting off the bus on their last day of kindergarten.

Picking strawberries with Grandpa.

Just a lazy day of summer.

Swimming with Daddy! The water temp is up to 84 and we are LOVING it!

Our Latest Additions

The gray kitten, named Daisy, is Nathan's and the (mostly) tuxedo kitten, called Dixie, is Thomas'. I say mostly because her sides aren't all black, they have light-colored brown vertical striping. I also tried to include a picture of Daisy's pale white horizontal striping. The boys are doing very well with the kittens. They are so small that I hardly think they could be older than 2 months, but their paperwork declares they are coming up on 3 months. They are not related but are from the same cat rescue league out of Lancaster, MA. We got them the Saturday after school was out.
