Farm House in Princeton, MAThis year we headed back east for a week. It's become somewhat of a tradition to spend a week around the fourth of July. What a great time we had. The girls loved being at grandmas house, new house to explore! Kermit was in heaven...every day 4:30am he was out working in the fields clearing brush and scrub, taking out small trees so that the more mature ones could grow faster. Wow what a process!
A few more highlights
- Kermit and I visited Museum of Fine Arts in Boston to see Edward Hopper exhibit - fun time (and without the kids!!!)
- took the little one's to the Public Garden to see Mr. and Mrs. Mallard from "Make way for Ducklings" Annaliese's favorite bedtime story.
- Chased Sniffs the dog all over the house. (Annaliese is in love with that animal!)
-Played and played with cousins Erin and Adam.
- Picked bowls and bowls of wild blackberries.
- Swam in Uncle Tancred's pool with the cousins AND Grandma King! (Time to get my girls in swimming lessons- Aunt Chau had to jump in the jacuzzi in her clothes to save Annaliese who thought she knew how to swim! Thanks Chau for your good eyes and quick reaction!)
- Avrie spotted a snake in the grass along the house - yikes! Not scared at all, wanted to touch it!
Here are some pics from the Public Garden in Boston. Annaliese had the time of her life climbing up on Mrs. Mallard and naming all of the ducklings...Jack, Kack, Lack, Mack, Nack, Ouack, Pack & Quack! Did I get them all right? She would know.

Here we are in front of the pond with the swan boats. We didn't get to ride in them because they were closed...but we did get to see the "real" Mr. and Mrs. Mallard and some real little ducklings too.
Later the girls had the best time ever chasing squirrels. Yes, we tormented them all. They were glad when we finally left.
