Kingston, New York

Our annual trek to Kingston was full of adventures, water play, some sick days and lots of fun.  The boys had a blast and loved having Nana, Papa and GaGa to play with. Kingston even learned a new word (GaGa!) and was more comfortable walking around.  It's hard to say what the best parts were, so here are the highlights:
Batman!


Biggest cousin, Dylan

Walking with Nana and chasing a ball, of course

Big positive of sick days in sleeping with daddy

Kingston definitely thought he was on a real cow!

Jolly Cow!

Mini Adventures in July

Trying to keep the boys busy and stay out of the heat are the 2 goals for summer. We have been busy with lots of little adventures and spending time with friends all over!
In Annapolis with Shark Caroline and Sarah.

'big' McKenna (she's 4!) and Taffe @ Wolf Trap

First official movie and popcorn night with Grandma
(Kingston was so into stealing everyone's popcorn)

Flowers for Daddy

Our zinnias are flourishing!  Taffe loves to pick the flowers he grew.
 Unfortunately we discovered why the sunflowers weren't flowering... some deer have been nibbling off the flower heads.  So gate locked, we are hoping they can recover.  The few untouched are quite tall which Taffe thinks is just crazy!
Taller than Taffe!
 My sweet boy picked a bunch of zinnias and daisies and stated, "These are for my dad." Can he stay this sweet forever?
