August Staycation

Kurt just finished up a glorious week off from work.  The weather was great (not counting Tropical Storm Irene on our final day) and we had lots of fabulous adventures together.  

Here we are at WWI Park in North Attleboro.  Not only is it a playground, but they have the largest FREE petting zoo I've ever come across.  This photo would have been great if Maddie wasn't petrified she was going to fall off!



Aidan pretending he's Humpty Dumpty:








Mimi's friend, Mrs. Rogalski, has horses and was kind enough to let M&A take a ride.  I don't think I've ever seen Aidan as happy as he was when the horse trotted and the ride got exciting.









No summer would be complete w/out a trip to Davis Farmland in Sterling with cousins Morgan & Vivie.  Here's Maddie milking a plastic cow.  It got a little gross when Aidan tried to drink from the "udders"...



Here's Aidan ensuring we had a very uncrowded hayride:




This photo makes me wonder who the real twins are in our family :)





Davis Farmland has this great splash park and their new addition this year was a "bubble blast" area.  Here's Aidan covered from head to toe in bubbles.  He LOVED this!  (Until the bubbles became taller than he and began to smother him)...




Our sweet little girl...



This was a great vacation that included trips to the beach, the wading pool and so much more.  Such a great way to end the summer!  Of course we are sad that Daddy is now back to work (no one more so than Daddy); but have the excitement of school starting on the horizon!!!!!  Besides, Fall really is my favorite time of year.
