Friday Happy Hour

Daddy called in his Father's Day gift two days early deciding he wanted to take Ben out on a charter boat fishing. We gals decided to make an evening of our boy-free time and walked down port. We hit up the library stocking up on more chapter books, then Lainie's Way for some birthday gifts, C'est Cheese for an appetizer, ice cream for dessert:

Rocketship Park for some play:

The fountain to make some wishes: 

Dinner at the Steam Room (YES, I know we already had dessert but girls can do whatever they want!):

Then we walked back up the giant big hill home. A very fun and satisfying evening!!

While we were making rounds, daddy and Ben were fishing up a storm. They caught a bunch but this one caught by Ben was the only keeper - a 19 inch fluke. Ben was thrilled asking, "When are we going to soufflé the fish?" Can you tell daddy watches a lot of French cooking shows??

Joys of June

Life is blowing by. We have three more weeks of school then SUMMER! I have no idea where the time goes... Daddy and I have been working hard and it's really paying off. We have surrounded ourselves with some extraordinary people in the office and we are not stopping any time soon. We rewarded ourselves after a particularly good month at our favorite sushi place. Em loves sushi and Ben even tried some salmon. Hooray! He's actually been taking nibbles of new foods lately. And, we can now add barbeque sauce to the short list of things he will eat. We are very proud.

Forever Daddy's Girl...

Summer is close, so there are constant requests to go for ice cream... Every once in a while we concede!

Cotton candy vs soft chocolate

While I was in LA last week, daddy bathed the kids in the sprinkler. That's what Daddy's do!

"Synchronized sprinklers?"

Our little man's reading and writing has come a long way. This kid is a spelling machine.

Writing his teacher a thank you letter.

Daddy took some of our best guys out on a fishing charter off Orient Point Friday and came back with a whole lot of this kind of goodness!

The race to 100 and a trip to St Maarten (the Dutch side) at the end of Summer? We are ALL IN!!!

Today was Em's last lacrosse game of the season. That means we can start sleeping in on Sundays again!!! And the return of Sunday Snuggles... :)
