Our trip to Boston

Right after my birthday in April, the kids and I took a mini-vacation to Boston to visit with some of my college friends.  What a trip!  We stayed in a condo with Kristin and her family only a few miles away from Janinne and her family. It was just like old times with my two freshman year roommates.

Janinne bought the kids matching pajamas -how adorable is this?

Evie (Kristin's daughter), Katie, James (Janinne's son) and Drew

We had lots of dinner parties with friends and did lots of hanging out ( with Laura and her boyfriend, Katie and her fiance, and Chris) and we all agreed it was just like college....except there were crazy kids running around.

The kids all got along great and Drew has been asking when he is going to see Evie again, while Katie has been asking to hold baby James!

Katie wanted to hold James all the time!

We went to downtown Boston and visited the Boston Children's Museum.  The kids loved it!

Another fun morning we went to the Boston suburbs to visit my friend Jes and her three children. Jes had set up a massive playdate with a bunch of Amherst friends since I was in town and we had a blast!  It was so nice to hang out with all the moms while the kids ran around inside and outside.

This was just the big kids---there was another group of under 1 babies! Katie, Will, Emily, Drew, Caroline and Lily. 

Drew loved the play room and all of the toys! Lily, Drew and Emily playing.

The kids and I had so much fun on our trip to visit with friends in Boston. I really enjoyed hanging out with Kristin and her husband Eric, and getting to know their adorable daughter Evie. I gave Evie her first "girly" present of play makeup and she was obsessed with it the entire week!  It was fun to watch Drew and Katie play with her and to see their little personalities.  Also, Janinne cooked us the best meal of the week at her and her husband Mike's house....the food was so good!!!  We are all looking forward to getting together in September again at Katie's wedding.
