Mall Tots

It was our turn to head up Timery's way to visit today. She lives in Ipswich and we take turns hosting since we live 1+ hour apart. Timery suggested meeting at an indoor kids playspace called Mall Tots in Danvers. It was 40 minutes for us and 30 minutes for them, so it was a great midpoint spot to have a Sunday morning meetup.

Mall Tots is huge and is geared toward kids 5 years and under. It costs $8 for the first kid and $3 for siblings, so we had a morning of fun for only $11.


There are tons of cars and riding toys,



Slides and other climbing structures,


There are two bouncy houses,


A "batting cage" for t-ball,


Video games,


And a PIRATE SHIP!!!


The kids had a total blast playing for over 90 minutes. 
Silas was pooped by the time we were packing up to leave!


Everyone needed lunch before driving home, so we decided to be brave and try a sit down meal with all 3 kids at Buffalo Wild Wings. Between the multitude of TV's and sheer exhaustion, they were angels.


It was a super fun day!

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!

Today

Today I went to a yoga class for the first time in far too many years. It felt wonderful and pushed me out of my comfort zone. I can't wait to go back! Today Derek gave Silas his traditional mid-summer haircut. Today the weather was perfect and we enjoyed bike rides (them) / a walk (me) in the park after lunch. Today Zoe chased the cats until they succumbed to her love and adoration. Today I put the garbage on the curb for weekly pickup and realized that we didn't have any! We recycle and compost far more than we throw away. I am grateful to be able to teach Zoe & Silas these habits. Empty trash barrel Countertop compost bin  Backyard compost bin that we bought at Town Hall Food compost, including the hair from Silas' haircut today! Today I checked on the rooftop vegetable patio garden - it's doing great! Today we went school supply shopping so that I can enjoy the last month of summer without worrying abou...

Summer Nights

As we hit the end of July we are relishing the relaxed summer nights around here. Walks to the corner store after work- Kitten snoozes in the window- Playing outside after dinner- And after dinner bike rides in the park aplenty. The best part is when they ride down the "big hill" out of the woods and we make the loop home. These are the days.
