Friends at the Farm

Derek & I have wanted to go back to Drumlin Farm since becoming Mass Audobon members this summer. The forecast looked good for this weekend so we made plans to go this morning. We love this place so much that I decided to invite a couple of friends who have never been there. Timery & Jason (15 months old) made the drive over from Ipswich and Iris, Steve & Peter (13 months old) came from Cambridge. I had a playdate with Wendy, Sydney & Ivy yesterday and they decided to join us too!

I have worked really hard to create a great circle of mom friends, but unfortunately most of them don't know each other. I have often thought that Timery & Iris would get along, and Wendy has been a close friend since the kids were born, so I was excited to finally get them all together!

L-R: Steve, Iris & Peter (in arms); Dave, Ivy (in arms), Wendy & Sydney (in arms);
me, Zoe & Silas (in stroller); Timery & Jason (in stroller)

In total, there were 7 adults and 6 kids, so we were quite the crew!





This is such a great spot for kids this age! They all LOVED it!








Last time we visited it was raining, so it was great to see what else the farm has to offer outside of the barns.


We enjoyed a picnic before heading back to Boston. What a wonderful day with friends!!!

Silas' Blog

Well it's been a busy 3 years since I last posted! Stay tuned as we may have more posts coming now that it looks like I have a new contributor... Silas recently read a book called "Starting Your Own Blog", and now he is bound and determined for us to let him start his own blog! We convinced him that he should start out by drafting content and a posting calendar. We made templates this morning and he wrote his first "post" today!

Auntie Tracy's Visit

Tracy is one of my best friends, but I haven't seen her in person in two years ! This means that I hadn't met her daughter, Brynn, who turns 2 in June. I was sooooooooo excited when I found out that Tracy and Brynn would be visiting Tracy's sister, Timery this weekend. We decided to meet at Mall Tots  again so that the kids could run around and we could catch up. It's a 45 minute drive and it was a beautiful day, so the kids were hunkered down with sunglasses, snack and stuffed animals on the ride up. Zoe and Brynn initially got acquainted in the bouncy house, And then Zoe pushed her around in a car.   Of course my kids (and husband!) had plenty of distraction with the video games too. We packed up the kids and then had lunch at Buffalo Wild Wings before heading back home. Timery and Tracy are like sisters to me. What a fantastic day!!!  

The Best of Project 366

2012 is coming to a close and I have officially completed Project 366 ! I managed to take and post and keep track of 365 photos out of 366 total days this year. I only missed one day and it was for a pretty good cause . Believe me, these pictures don't take themselves. I shot just under 7000 pictures this year. Once I got an iPhone in March all of the pictures were taken with my phone (~ 5500 pictures!). The camera on the iPhone is really good, I always have it with me, and I like playing around with the filters and other editing tools available in photography apps like Instagram, Camera+, Diptic, and Gridditor. Since I have put so much time, love and energy into Project 366 I thought I should select a few "Best Of's". I had a great time putting this together, and I hope you enjoy these highlights as well!
