Brooklyn Fair

Hello Everyone,

We did finally get a fair in, the Brooklyn CT fair last weekend. We had a fun time. We enjoyed some tractor pull with Uncle Ben & Auntie Bee, we saw the cows & sheep. We played in the kid area for a while, it was really fun. They had a corn maze, a corn box instead of sand box, they had trains to play with, toy horses to ride, cars to ride, things to paint, a play ice cream station, play pizza station. It was a blast!!! We always love to spend time with our cousins Jayden & Owen who came to the fair too.

Before the fair we went to pick grapes with Grandpa & Grandma down the road. There were so many grapes to pick. Grandma is going to make grape juice, so we can drink it when we go back down to see her.

And there's finally a new video, I know it's been a while, mom says we move to much and too fast to get a good video, it would be rough viewing. :) (And that's Nathanael performing Twinkle Star.)

And check out our SWEET umbrella's, Adley's is Transformers - Optimus Prime & Nathanael is BUZZ - Toy Story. Adley saw them in the store and mom couldn't resist. Maybe a rainy day video will be in order.

Have a wonderful long Labor day weekend!!

Love,

The Boys

4 Year Check-up!!

Yah, I'm getting so BIG. I'm 41 3/4 inches tall (80th percentile) & 38.6 lbs (again 80th percentile) I'm extremely proportioned. :) I did awesome checking my ears & eyes, I was very brave with 5 shots....ouch, and topped it off with a finger prick for lead & anemia. So the nurse gave me 5 Spider Man stickers, and that was pretty cool. I've got a clean bill of health!! Mom did take us to Dunkin Donuts after, and Nathanael had a chocolate glazed, and I had a boston cream....mom figured I wouldn't take that one, but all that chocolate glaze on top was irresistible.

MMMM, donuts!!

Adley

Happy Birthday Adley!!

Look who's 4!! I'm getting so big.

We had a fabulous camping weekend. We went to Hammonasset State Park, on the Ocean Beach in CT. We spent 2 nights, had lots of smores, we swam in the ocean, biked on all the cool trails, played in the not so cool playground :), and enjoyed time with family. It was the bomb. We were 3 tents on one site, it was SWEET. Next year we're going to have a cousins tent, that will be extra sweet. So yah we're going back for more.

Dad got us a BIG sweet tent, very fun.

Happy Birthday to me!!

Adley

Thanks for all the SWEET presents, I've been very much enjoying my Transformers, and transfomer game and my own personal back pack, and I showed mom I have space for my pencils and markers, I'm ready for pre-school.

Vacation Bible School!!

We had a fabulous week at Vacation Bible School, Son Quest Rainforest. We enjoyed our jungle adventure. Adley was in the butterfly group and Nathanael bounced between the sugar gliders and the Tree Kangaroos. He's versatile. :) Adley was even doing the motions to the songs at the rehearsal, not singing just motions, it was crazy cute. We had a busy week because we had 2 friends in town our friend Amanda from Cancun we went to her mom's pool one night, and our Ohio friends we went out with them one night. It was a crazy busy week but crazy fun. And we followed it up with our first overnight sleepover without mom & dad. We stayed with our cousins, who are soooo fun to play with. Thanks Grandma & Auntie Brooke.

Adley is going to be 4 years old this Saturday, he's getting soo big. We'll be camping with our cousins this weekend on the ocean. We're very excited!!

Having the BEST summer!!

Love you lots!!

Baseball

Tonight we went to a Spinners baseball game, a minor league team in Lowell. We had sweet seats behind home plate. We enjoyed everything going on, especially all the yummy ball food. It was fun to have lots of church friends with us too. I'm sure Dad has some sweet pics that will be up soon.

Yeah Baseball!!

Happy 4th of July!!

Our July started with a bang, no pun intended. Dad was off work starting on Thursday and boy did we have a blast. See our Pics.

We started our July 1st with a trip to the Boston Aquarium with our friends Caroline & Ellis. We loved seeing all the fishes. Nathanael was a huge penguin fan. Adley enjoyed pretty much everything.

On July 2nd we went to the children's museum in Providence with Grandma. And boy did we have a blast. There was a water room, and outdoor play area, rooms to play in, an area to learn about bones, ships to play on, construction sites to build huge bridges. We had a blast.

Then on the 3rd we went up to VT to see Memere and Papa King. We got to meet our friends from MN Owen, Henry & Violet. We spent lots of time in Memere's pool, they got a bounce house, and I think Adley was in it as much as he could. We went to the park to play. We had a 'bonfire' and cooked smores and sparklers. Daddy & Adley tented out for 2 nights straight. We were pretty pooped come Monday afternoon when we came home. So pooped that we just enjoyed hearing the Lowell fireworks from our beds.

And then on the 9th we went blueberry picking. YUM YUM!!

God Bless America!!

Adley & Nathanael

Happy Birthday Daddy!!

We had a great time decorating the cake, it had Junior mints on it, you can't go wrong. Dad had a lot of help blowing these guys out. Looks like Dad is 13....guess I figured he was a little older.

Love,

The guys
