Childrens Day

Every Year pro Portsmouth hosts "Children's day". It is Max favorite event, since we have Mothers day and Fathers day why not a Children's day?? This year like all the other years before us, we trotted downtown with the dog in tow to attend childrens day! It started at the Isle of Shoals Steamship parking lot. All your favorite characters arrived from "Character Island" via boat. After that we left for some treasure huntng=ing at the Moffat Ladd house, followed by a toy store visits, Icecream pit stop, hugs with Curious George and Max even managed to find Waldo!! Late lunch at Gillies and finally what better to round of this fine day then a movie visit with Gene to see the Avengers! Ahh life is not too bad....

Gardening!

Our friends the Heffron's invited us this year to take part in their gardening project. Ashley loves to garden and realized that her vegetable beds had taken on a life of their own... got It works like this.. every family volunteer some hours every week to weed and tend to the vegetable gardens, then we share whatever crop we get from it! Sounds fun right!! The plan is to meet every friday afternoon for some communal gardening and then afterwards share with some potluck supper. Well Sunday was our first get together. We all met, everyone dove right in,
