Time on the T

One of our most favorite adventures was riding on the T, what an experience. We went through tunnels, over bridges and got to talk to tons of people, including the 'conductor'.

What Did You Find?

Again, just enjoying ourselves on the island.

Spectacle Island

You can see we had a great time on the ferry with Captain Casey, who tirelessly answered all of the boys questions about sharks, dolphins and sea turtles that the Captain had run into during his tenure on the ferries. Aside from the very helpful rangers, we were the only people on the island which was FILLED with sea glass, we must have filled an entire large bucket in a matter of minutes, but we had to leave it all there due to conservation efforts. Sam was filling his bucket with crabs, which he reluctantly threw back into the harbor prior to our departure. What a great day!

Spectacle Island

We had a great time taking a field trip to Spectacle Island, an island about 25 minutes ferry ride from Boston. Just getting there was half the fun, but once there, the island was full of seaglass and crabs and we loved exploring.

Going to the PATRIOTS!

Sam saw his first NFL game in Boston, where he watched the Pats cream the Bengals. He loved it and Jon, Alysha and Hannah outfitted him for the game in style. Robyn and Charlie treated him to a wonderful day, filled with mardi gras necklaces, popcorn, yogurt covered pretzels and lots of cheer. Thanks everyone!

Happy Birthday to ME???

Sam was shocked when a cake was brought out during the second day of Rosh Hashanah. He was singing along, not knowing who the cake was for, then realized that it was for him and was just delighted! We love surprises.

Playdates with Jason

We had a great time in Boston for many reasons, but one of the biggest was spending quality time with cousin, Jason. We went to the Patriots game with him (well at least Sam did), we went over his house and played trains, and we played with him in synagogue. We cannot wait to see him again!
