Baseball, Trucks, Allie and Father's Day

Aunt Allie was on break from Dartmouth this past weekend so we headed down to Chatham to see her for a couple days. Although the weather didn't cooperate with our beach plans we did manage to get out in the boat briefly Saturday. The bugs drove us back home pretty quickly and I forgot to bring a camera but it's safe to say that Hannah is going to like the boat - the only trick is going to be keeping her from jumping out of it (no fear!). Sunday we celebrated Father's Day with a delicious lunch out and a long nap/golf watching session - a perfect way to spend a rainy afternoon in my opinion! 

The see-saw is so much fun! 

Serious tower building.... 


Checking out the old fire truck that Papi brought down from CT - it's a hit! 



Practicing on the monkey bars with Dad..... 


Checking out the a couple innings of my first Chatham A's game.... 

Do these look too big?

Fun in Boston Garden

Hannah and I spent a gorgeous Saturday evening in Boston Garden and on the Esplanade with Sarah. So nice to finally have summer-like weather in Boston!

Maine College Girl

We're just back from a fun weekend at Colby celebrating our ten year college reunion. Hannah joined us for the weekend and had a wonderful time wandering around campus, sleeping (sort of) in the dorms, eating in the dining hall, dancing at her first student center dance, watching her first couple beer die games, and of course, getting to know her future Colby classmates. The weather was fantastic - and we had a wonderful weekend - although we're very much looking forward to sleeping in our own beds tonight! 

All smiles with Dad after a big breakfast in Dana dining hall: 
People watching with Molly .... 

Checking out the new turf field.... 

Early (too early!) Sunday morning breakfast on the steps of the library....

Enjoying the view! (and all the stairs!) 

Hanging with Molly by the pond....


On the way home we stopped to visit our good friends the Collins in Maine. Last time we visited the Collins was in Bermuda (they have a rough life!), and this time we missed Doug as he'd unfortunately already headed back to the island, but we got to see Sam whom Hannah had never met - and of course Jane who always has fun things for Hannah to play with! And we got to see their new house which is just beautiful and looks like a perfect spot - we were very sad to get back in the car and continue our drive back home. Thanks again for a great visit ladies! 

We tried giving Hannah rides in the wheelbarrow but she wasn't very interested in it (it was somewhat similar to the carousel experience!).... 

Jane found an old Barbi limo that Sam used to play with. Hannah had quite a time dragging it around the driveway - and ultimately off a stone wall (I hope this isn't indicative of her future driving skills!)....

Peek-a-boo with Sam! (thanks again for chasing after Hannah while we relaxed and enjoyed the view from your new house Sam!)....
