Mystic Aquarium
This weekend we visited Mystic Aquarium. We received free press passes, I just have to blog about our trip. Easy enough considering it saved us over $100!! Yup you read that right, had we paid for all four of us it would of cost us over $100. $28 per adult and $20 per child 3 and over so we would of had to pay for Allison too. Plus they charged $3.00 to go on the Voyage adventure (Holly and I went) and then $3.00 each for us to feed the birds (we got 3 sticks of food). Total = $111 for 3 hours. Steve would of never paid it, I said we would of because the girls enjoyed it, but I’m glad we didn’t! lol…
Lollipop Seeds
Have you heard of Lollipop Seeds? I hadn’t until Friday. Allison had to go to the dentist and while there they told us about how the Easter Bunny sometimes brings Lollipop Seeds the day before Easter which you then spread on the ground and when the Easter Bunny comes, he spreads his magic on them and Lollipop’s grown. Doesn’t that sound cool? So the ladies at the office told my girls that they’d get in touch with the EB and ask him to bring us some Lollipop seeds. We were going to my inlaws for the weekend and we were really excited when we got there and realized he did indeed drop off some Lollipop seeds!!! I guess the dentist has a direct link to…
Family Pictures
Friends of mine set up a photo session for our family. It was gifted to me in September but with Steve having surgery in October, we never got around to doing it. Now that he’s in his last days, we knew we had to make it happen. The photographer was kind enough to come to our house and work with us in taking some pictures. I dressed us all in blue for colon cancer. And I love the results. We will treasure these photos forever!
My Cute Cat Girl
My Cat Girl – This is Holly on Halloween (I know I’m behind!). She had this dress in her dress up box and really wanted to wear it for Halloween. Who was I to stop her when it meant I didn’t have to pay for another halloween costume! So she wore it and it looked adorable. This is her at the Halloween party at the Westerly Yacht Club. They put on a really nice party for them every year. Lots of great costumes and tons of fun for the kids. Daddy suggested I put some whiskers on Holly and it was a good choice as it made her even cuter! But then again, she’s cute with and without the whiskers!
School is Out and the Pool is Open
School is out and this is what we did the first day of school vacation. My girls are like fish and they love being in the pool and oddly enough I’m enjoying it this summer too. Not sure why. Perhaps it’s because we have neighbors that enjoy swimming with us as well? It’s always fun with friends. Or maybe it’s just because I’ve slowed down so I can enjoy myself more? I don’t really know but I have a feeling by the time summer is over we are all going to be completely water-logged from all the swimming. But see the happy look on her face? That’s what I enjoy the most. She’s swimming up a storm and just enjoying herself. This is what parenting…
