Early Fall 2010

I guess I could even call it end of summer.

The garden is going bonkers! Bryan and Dad built the major structures in the Spring and then Bry put down all the gravel and we installed a drip irrigation system. We didn't know what to do with all the tomatoes. Needless to say, no one at work had to buy tomatoes all summer and we have enough sauce canned to make it though next year. Ann's favorite is the peas, which are almost done and so I have to plant a Fall crop for her. She'll sit there and eat them all afternoon long, right off the plant.


The Goodwin's came across the ocean for a visit and we went to Cape Cod for vacation. Hurricane Earl nearly ruined it, but it turned out to be a great time! The Burrells came up for a couple of days and stayed with us at our outrageously beautiful house. Take a look

We had a wonderful time. The weather was beautiful and the crowds were gone. We especially like playing off of Morris island when the tide went out. We didn't have Ann's bathing suit with us, but sh didn't seem to mind. It's probably our favorite spot on Cape Cod!




Nanny and Grandad came back to our house for the week. Anna loved having her grandparents here to play with! We went to a local agricultural fair one day. I'm not sure if it was Anna or Daddy who enjoyed it more.



We ended our visit with a trip to NYC. On Friday we walked around and saw the sights. Lindsay joined us for dinner then babysat Anna while the adults went to see Memphis the musical, which was amazing. We were also lucky enough to get the best apartment at our company apartment building. It had a 180 view of the city. It was magical to look at and I think the Goodwins had a wonderful time! On Saturday, we went to the Bronx zoo with the Goodwins, the Burrells and Lindsay and celebrated....MAGGIE'S BIRTHDAY!! It was a fun, sunny day. We sadly said goodbye to Nanny and Grandad as we dropped them off at JFK and headed home.
