Mom's Visit

We had a great few days with my Mom. She flew up on September 25th (her birthday) and stayed for 5 days. We enjoyed having her here. We crammed a lot into a short trip. She was able to see Ava do gymnastics and Emet do his sports class. She had lunch with Ava at school one day and then we went into Boston for a Duck Boat ride. But, I must say, the highlight of Mom's time here was a girls' night out. Jon kept the kids and Mom treated Abbey and I to dinner and a show. We went to see So You Think You Can Dance, the tour. We rode the train in and had dinner at the Sunset Cantina (highly recommend this place) across from Boston University. After dinner we walked across the street to the arena for the show. It was amazing! We had fun being out and loved seeing the incredibly, talented dancers. Thanks Mom for such a wonderful treat! Thanks for coming...we loved having you here! Can't wait to see you soon!

The driver obviously doesn't know my son! :)
Oh, we also made a couple of trips to Costco. Mom also bought the kids their Halloween costumes! Thanks Granna! We will have Belle (from Beauty and the Beast) and Bumblebee (the transformer). Owen is going to be a lobster. Allyson brought her boys' baby costume for me to use for him...thanks to Allyson for Owen's very appropriate for New England, costume!
