This was the gorgeous sunset we had when coming home from Long Island during our weekend adventure in July.  The boat rides were really fun (and exhausting) because Bobo was having a blast.  We distracted him for a while by taking silly pictures.  I love how these came out because you can see the deep red glow from the sunset.  Such a perfect evening!

Bobo had a great time on the ferry boat down to Long Island in July.  It was really hot the whole weekend, except when we were on the boat.  I was freezing since I forgot a sweater, but luckily I remembered to bring a hoodie for Bobo, one that Julie bought him in England.  I love all his teeth (anyone seen that commercial?).  

These are passport photos.  They were REJECTED because they were no where near the correct size necessary to obtain a legal United States of America Passport.  But, I still liked them so I took a picture before going back to get ones of an appropriate and acceptable format.  So, long story short – soon (hopefully) we will have our passports in hand and Bobo will be introduced to the wonderful world of international travel! Now, where to first…

Yesterday there was a Circus in town.  I wanted to take Bobo to see the acrobats, but my idea was vetoed.  There were no ‘animal’ acts listed, so I agreed that Bobo might not make it through it, or worse, might try to jump into the ring like he kept asking!  The “midway” was open before the show though, so we went there, lured by the pony ride. Sadly, the pony ride did not translate into reality.  We bought the ticket, stood in line and then as soon as it was Bobo’s turn to get in the saddle… no way. …

Just got home from Long Island after a long but exciting weekend.  Bobo got to hang out with his great-grandparents, Zsa Zsa and Gramps, at Paradise Point as well as visit the family homestead, Howell Holme where Grampy and Kathy were staying.  We  soaked up some sun and waves on the beach at Founder’s Landing where we also got to go for a great Lobster Fest for Saturday dinner.  The round trip ferry boat rides were a great hit, and so was playing with Rocky, the one-eyed kitty.  We rounded off the weekend with lots of delicious food, shopping at…

So happy to be at the beach!  That’s more like it, what a sweetie   Fake smile!  Look at his scar/fake dimple 🙁 Bobo LOVES being at the beach!

My sister saw me editing this picture and told me I make the same face!  I don’t think I do, I’ve never seen me make this face…. have you?? In other news, we’re trying to get him to be more ‘British’ by saying this like ‘knickers’, ‘brillo’ and ‘well-chuffed!’  Dual citizenship is right around the bend! 🙂

I love this, perfect summer memory!  Nothing like a breakfast of a rich chocolate muffin while the warm air beckons for a day of playing outside.  Fresh flowers from the garden help too.  I’m starting a new ‘starred’ label for my favorite single pictures.  This way I can eventually organize them into sections that are easily clickable and findable, and all my favorites will be right there!

Here are some from a few months ago… look at that snow on the ground!  Taking the first thaw opportunity to hike around through the path in the woods and ‘sunbathe’ in the yard.
