Canobe Lake, Kimball Farm, water slide..

We had a busy week!  Charlotte had girls scout camp all week.  She got on a bus in south boston and went to Waltham everyday.  I had an anxiety attack the first day letting her go, but she just waved me off "bye mom, I am fine!"  She loved it.   Catherine had art camp, which she has done for the past 3 summers, she had fun!  We spent an afternoon at the Bridges on their water slide!   Cory's work had an event at Kimball Farm which we thought was going to get rained out but it ended up being a nice day.  The girls did bumper boats, miniature golf, jumpy houses, petting zoo, face painting and hit a few golf balls with Cory.   We went to Canobe Lake Park for the first time on Monday.  I haven't been to an amusement park in forever.  I used to love the rides but now they just make me sick!   It was a good park because they had lots of rides for Catherine and Emma to go on since they were not big enough to go on the other rides alone.  It was a LONG day but they had a blast.  Charlotte keeps asking when we are going back.  Catherine and Emma of course ended up in strollers... Those 2 will be 10 and being pushed around!

So Dawn's daughter Ella wanted to go to the AG store in Boston.  Charlotte & Catherine were so excited as we don't usually go here only for special treats!   A paycheck later and they were all so happy!  HA!  That store just lures you in. I have to say I was getting excited over all the stuff!  They got their dolls hair done, we had lunch and we bought some accessories.  They already have their Christmas lists and Birthday lists made out!

We went up to visit the Bennetts in York, Maine last weekend.  So much fun, despite it being a bit chilly.  The girls then went to stay with Grammy and Granpa in their new camper.  They were thrilled, loved camping.   Cory and I got to enjoy a night out and a hotel in Portland.  I am very happy the girls have G&G to camp with!!!

My friend Dawn from Fairfield came for a visit with 2 of her kids.  Ella is 5 and the girls loved hanging out with her.  We did some of the touristy stuff which the girls were so excited about!

Oh and lastly, we stayed with our friends Andy and Anne on Friday night.  They have 2 huge dogs.  When we got there you would have thought we threw the girls to the wolves (especially Catherine).  The screaming was ridiculous.  But by Saturday morning you can see Catherine was petting Libby.  As we were riding home, she said I want a dog!

More Summer Fun!

We spent the weekend at the Irish village!  As usual the girls had a blast.  Riding the cars, swimming and just running free all around the colony.  They watched a movie under the stars, which they loved.  And of course the sparklers were a huge hit!
