As has become tradition, we headed north for the 4th of July weekend for time with Mike's family. His brother & sis in love always plan the most fun time. We didn't waste any time and headed out for morning ice cream- because why not?! Its summer! They live in the cutest town and I love it that you can travel so many places by this old aqueduct. Our kid:adult ratio was a little improved for this round of community living!
then a stroll over to the libray for a little story time with Goo/Gram
Mike transporting the majority of the kids home.
On Saturday we headed into NYC for a Yankees game. It was really fun!
It was a sweet time with this guy, which I could always use more of.
And I got sweet time with this guy since strollers and backpacks aren't allowed.
We had one sleepy boy on the way home.
We always have such fun cousin time at their pool.
Ben loooooves the water and would just walk right in if you aren't careful.
The boys were in Lego cave heaven.
Lily has come to know that NY means birthday time for her!
Another day we went to a "castle" estate for a picnic lunch. Love the personality and dynamics reflected in these pictures. Last year Lily & Bennett spent a lot of time together. This year the little girls are two year old. That amount of development and Lily spend significantly more time with them. But still a good "middle child" bouncing back and forth between them and the boys.
The boys
Bubbles!!
Love this pic of Goo and her big boys
Ben is pushing on Liam's back and Peter is belly laughing.
Dinnertime by the pool
Birthday cake time. The THIRD year of the butterfly cake and no less JOY!
Mike handed out sparklers for the 4th.
Such sweet summer childhood/cousin memories!
