Family Visitors

I guess it's been about two weeks now, but my parents came in town and spent some time with us. My dad was flying out here to shoot a wedding with me, so he figured he might as well bring my mom along as well and make a trip out of it. To be honest it went WAY too fast. Half the time they were here we were traveling to NY to photograph the wedding and the other half disappeared rather quickly.

One of the days my parents were visiting we went to downtown Boston and walked around. My dad took some family pictures for us and we got some delicious pizza at the Upper Crust near the Boston Common... one of our new favorites :)










Another day we went to Drumlin Farms in Lincoln, which is a town right outside of base. Adeline loved seeing the animals and it was a good little activity for the day instead of being lazy. The first day my parents were in town I am pretty sure my dad slept the ENTIRE day because he was recovering from a big story he had put together before they came to Boston.




We celebrated my mom's 51st birthday by going to Springbrook Park and swimming in the lake/pool. I love going there. It is a man made lake and it has a big shallow area for little kids, a big slide, a dock to jump off of, a splash park, a regular park, picnic tables, etc. My dad just enjoyed watching us the entire time and was a little creeped out by the merky water I think. He told Adeline it was scary. She kept telling me "the water is not scary mom".... I didn't know why she was saying that at first until I later found out who was putting those thoughts into her head! Adeline went down the huge water slide with all the other big kids that were doing it. I still can't believe she did it all by herself. After swimming we got a HUGE platter of sushi and ate ourselves sick. And of course, a cake!
