Some Pics from May

May started out in pretty kick butt fashion with Steve and I getting a night away on the Cape. E was with Grandma Jan and the weather was gorgeous! We were staying at Ocean Edge in Brewster, but we stopped in Dennis on our way. This is Cold Storage beach which is where my mom brought Jamie and I most every day of the summer! We lived less than 3 miles from here growing up so I have many happy memories of this beach and especially walking on the jetty. It was fun to take Steve there and reminisce a little. We also took a trip to the Ice Cream Smuggler where Jamie and I worked back in high school. The collages from our summers spent there are still on the wall! It was crazy to see and the ice cream is still fabulous as well.





Ethan loves to help his daddy doing whatever it is daddy is doing. Washing the car is a very fun time for them and this time was no exception. The cars get only marginally clean, but both end up soaked and laughing.

There was a Marine Week in Boston and we missed most of the events, but we did make it down to the Navy Yard in Charlestown for a little bit of fun. It didn't start out that way. E's face in this picture perfectly depicts his feelings about it in the beginning. There were kids honking the very loud horns and he was not feelin' it. We wandered around listening to him whining for a while and finally went into the Constitution Museum to use the bathroom. That turned out to be a wonderful thing! The museum is very kid friendly and we all had a great time in there!

When we came out of the museum, E was in a much better mood and ready to rock a few marine vehicles.

We spontaneously decided to take the ferry from the Navy Yard to Long Wharf and grab dinner in Faneuil Hall. It was the perfect night for a ferry ride!

E was in rare form after dinner. While we were waiting for the ferry back, he claimed this rock as his stage and entertained us and everyone around us. They've been learning a few yoga poses at school. This is the tree pose.

This was E's tree pose.

These next 2 videos are from when the outdoor bar on the dock started playing music. Apparently Benny and the Jets is one rockin' tune! The first is cute, but the second is freaking hilarious! Family, this is the same I shared on vimeo, but I had to post it here. I laugh every time I watch it. He's such a ham!

The ride home was beautiful. What a fun night! He looks so big in this picture.
