fishy friends

 On Monday, Beth and I took Dayton and Livi to

New England Aquarium in Boston.

The fun started early...they loved the train!! :)

The aquarium is so much fun!!! I'd almost forgotten how great it is!!

And the have a new "Touch Tank."  We got to touch rays and SHARKS!! :)

I think the Touch Tank was our favorite...

we went three times. :)

Dayton said his favorite part of the day 

was when a shark scared me and I screamed and splashed us all!!

Here's some pics from the rest of the day...

We had lunch at Cheers, posed with Red Auberbach

(I was trying to get them to point and say, "We're number one!!

but Dayton had his heart set on stealing his stogie!!)

We also took a carousel ride...

It was a pretty awesome day. :)

Happy kids make for a very happy auntie!! :)

school daze

Dayton has started pre-school!! 

He is loving it! Though, he did tell me,

"We read a lot of books but not as many as at your house."

Bless my heart!! :)

Livi and I pick him up on Tuesdays...

(from Holden Christian Academy where my mom teaches...)

I'm loving the fall and all that is...

I'm going to the Red Sox game tonight with my sister,

and FOOTBALL is in full swing...

ya....that pretty much sums up how we feel about that... ;)

Now, if you don't mind...I will entertain you with a little Livi montage...

oh, and just checking in...

"Hello!" from NemoBlu :)

Here's hoping the Sox can win tonight....
Josh Beckett is pitching, coming off the D.L.
double fingers crossed!!! :) :) :)
