Thomas the Train!!!

Today we went with some friends to see Thomas the Train. The boys loved it!!! We drove two hours in the pouring rain, but I would do it all over again just to see the look on Bryson face when he got to ride on Thomas. He was so excited he couldn't even talk!! First we took the shuttle to get to the trains so Bryson got to ride in a yellow school bus. He was so excited!! Then he got to go on about a 2o minute ride to the Island of Sodor, after that they had a room set up with tons of tracks and trains that the kids could watch and play with; and last but not least we visited the gift store, where the boys each got to pick out a train. We are already looking forward to Thomas visit next year!!!

Beluga Whale Day!

Beluga Whale Day!! Bryson goes to Sea School twice a week at the Aquarium. These pictures are from Beluga Whale day. His class got to go behind the scenes and learn about the Beluga Whales. Sea School has been such a fun learning experience for Bryson. Sean and I are really impressed with all the hands on activities and everything he has learned!!!

Some of our favorite things...

One of our favorite things to do is to walk around Downtown Mystic. It's a nice charming New England Seaport. The boys love to look at the boats. Bryson thinks that his Daddy drives the sail boats ( he is a little confused).. There are great little boutiques and restaurants in Mystic. One of our favorite places to eat is Mystic Pizza. Not for the pizza, but for the sandwich's!








Brady a year ago at the beach!



The Beach!! It's amazing how fast the boy's have changed. Last year, Bryson would not go near the sand. He HATED it!! This year, he cries everytime we have to leave the beach. Brady however has just grown in size. His personalilty about the sand reminds the same. Our vacation last year he rolled around in the sand and got it everywhere!! This year, he throws it smashes it in his hair, he is always a mess!!

Busy JUNE!

I don't even know where to start, we have had so much going on in the month of June. We have had several visitors. We enjoyed visits from Sean's mom, The Chapman Crew and Seans sister Marina. We are looking forward to much more company in the months of July and August.

Sean's Mom came for 10 days. The boys had so much fun getting spoiled by their Nana Vickie. We relaxed and finished projects around the house. Sean surprised us during her visit. He was suppose to be in Virginia for the week so I was very surprised when he came walking threw the door! I just love surprises!!

The Chapman's were our neighbors the first time we lived in Connecticut. Now they are stationed in Italy. We had a great visit with them. We went to the Aquarium, saw a parade and went to the beach. It was so much fun getting to see them after all this time!

At the moment we are enjoying a visit from Sean's sister Marina. We have really enjoyed the beach with her. The fun just never ends!!
