Today, we had the Acton families down for the annual beach day. We are now dubbed the "five families" because their are - guess - five of us. We are four now as one family is away in Zurich...but will be returning in Sept, just in time for our annual Storyland trip..yeah!
The day started off shaky weather wise but ended up being a fantastic beach day. Kids had a great time. Very busy catching fish with their nets, making all sorts of things in the sand, swimming(of course) and Luke's favorite...having ice cream from the ice cream truck!
Paige and Olivia checking out the fish their brothers caught and put in the bucket..and later back into the ocean -
Making a volcano -
Ice cream time. "I'm not melting, am I?"
Minute rest for some ice cream talk -

Boston Cousin's Day Trip -
Today, was our second annual trip to Boston with the cousins! Last year, we did the swan boats, the garden and Beacon Hill. This year, we opted for the duck tour and lunch at a pizza place by the Pru. We planned this and bought the tickets before we knew it was going to be 100 degrees and the hottest day of the year thus far. This ended up working to our advantage. The kids were so good on the duck (80min tour) I attributed it to the fact that they were too lethargic and drained from the heat to act up....this all changed of course at the restaurant when they got in the AC and downed a milkshake. Yeah to another fun Boston trip.
Ready to go!!
The kids got to drive the duck boat in the charles river...very cool! and we learned a lot of fun facts about the city that i forgot the first 4 times I did the duck tour.
