Back-To-School shopping...a sneak peek:

It all started with Shaye falling in love with this sweater...

then I saw these...

Shaye's favorite food! As earrings!

Tiny, little grilled cheese sandwiches. As earrings!

How could I resist?

I bought them HERE.

Happy Birthday to you

And who is you?

Gianna, my oldest.

She turned 14(!) on the 4th,

but didn't want her own special post.

I can respect that but couldn't resist a shout out.

Happy Birthday Gianna-

we LOVE you!

We're back.

You didn't even notice we were gone, did ya?

You did?!??

How sweet.

Last weekend, Gianna and Brielle spent the weekend beach hopping (New Hampshire on Saturday and Rhode Island on Sunday) with my sister and friends. While they were off sunning and funning, John, the littles, and I spent the weekend in Boston with my in-laws (up from FL with tickets to a Red Sox game!). Since I stayed at the hotel pool with the girlies, I don't have any pics from Fenway, but I do have some other shots of our weekend I would like to share.

First up, the view from our hotel room...

The girls could watch the planes and the boats in the bay.

It was an amazing view.

(And here's a link to the view of our room.)

The girls also enjoyed the hotel's skybridge

as well as the indoor pool.

Now,

out and about Boston...
