Kevin's first post/Mary, John & Julia's visit :)

Last weekend we had a great visit from Aunt Mary and her two kids, John (7) and Julia (6), and Uncle Kevin. We're really hoping Uncle Kevin will finally visit our blog...he stays away from it and says he just doesn't get it...kinda like how I feel about Myspace (though I have been spying more on Facebook); but I think he's really missing out! So I had to start this post with him:


Here is is sitting on the toilet of a C-12, the plane Michael is flying/instructing on. Yes, that's right, the toilet-right at the top of the entrance...it doesn't get much use, thank goodness! Sick. These planes look a lot fancier from the outside.

Here's Michael in front of the C-12, there's plenty of seats for all of us, wish we could have gone somewhere!

John & Julia were given their first flight lesson and were ready to go!

Mary, J&J returning from their weekend jaunt to Nantucket (we all wish!), I mean flight lesson.

Michael and Kevin early the first morning enjoying coffee and costumes...I took out my "costume" box of Halloween bits and fun jewelry for everyone (Julia) to enjoy. Julia made sure we all had at least one item on.
Here's princess chef Julia and the hunchback of Notre Boston chef John with "Penguini" (one of the many toys they brought Tommy) cooking breakfast. We all learned that everything is more fun in costume!

Tommy smiling and talking with his Auntie early morningUncle Kevin talking to Tommy about the Red Sox and Tommy begging Uncle Kevin to visit his blog.
The cousins...I've heard a lot of people say there's a lot of similarities between Johnny & Tommy
Here's everyone at the end of a frisbee golf round..a little windy and hot, but it was still a lot of fun!
We're so happy that they made the trip down. It was great for all of them to meet Tommy, see our house and just hang out. We cooked a lot of great meals, decorated glitter pumpkins (we're still finding glitter all over, even Tommy!), made caramel apples, went to the aquarium, and of course went to the beach and checked out all of the debris from Ike. Here's a link to see more pics from their visit:

Best Birthday present ever...

Nothing like a smiling Tommy!! Maybe getting older isn't so bad....
The blueberry pancakes Michael made and the walk on the beach helped too!!
Life is pretty good, even as I get further into my thirties :)
