Memorial Day Weekend

Our holiday weekend was packed with activity! Saturday morning Caden had T-ball, and directly after that we headed to the aquarium to meet up with Padge and Julie and Julie's Mom and Dad for Caden's Christmas present.. a trip to the aquarium! The kids had lots of fun looking at the jelly fish, penguins, sea turtles and sharks.. to name a few!!


Caden through the jellyfish tank!

From Boston we headed up to Maine to visit my Dad for an overnight, unfortunately the visits seem so quick! The kids LOVE (understatement) visiting Grampy Waterhouse and Uncle Brian, it really is better than an amusement park! with dump truck rides, driving the bobcat, seeing the horses, geese, bunnies and pigs! and soon there will be sheep too! Caden kept telling my Dad, "Grampy, let's go to work!" He loves riding in the bobcat and helping to feed the horses. We didn't get many pictures this visit because the boys went off with Grampy while Rob, Cora and I went up to LL Bean!



Cora's 1st time in the Bobcat!

Cole pats a baby bunny (1 month old)

and these bunnies are just 1 day old (left) and hours old! (right)

Cora is checked out by a horse!

Caden actually held a baby goose!

To finish off the trip we went for ice creams! and tailgated on Grampy's truck!
Today we stuck around the house and uncovered the pool, only to find a floating squirrel who's fur/skin was starting to peel off... ick! We went to a bbq at Kim's house then went across the street for some fun fireworks/firecrackers! Caden was much more brave this year than last year! stepping right up when it was sparkler time! While Caden covered his ears for most of the firecrackers, Cole and Cora were uneffected by the loud pops and bangs!
Happy Memorial Day!
