Late summer adventures

We took the kids to the Museum of Science on Friday. I thought the museum was rather boring...but they didn't seem to think so. I wished we had gone back to the Children's Museum which is way more fun...

Afterwards, we went over to Faneuil Hall which was way better than the museum. I had ice cream for dinner. It doesn't get much better than that.




We listened to music and watched a street performer...

I bought the kids these cool spinny things. I thought it would be a fun souvenir for the day. Gianna said it "relaxed" her...

Yesterday was a BIG day for Julia...she and her friend got their ears pierced for their upcoming 8th birthdays...


Yes, Julia is a shorty...either that or her friend is really tall...or maybe it's a little bit of both.
I really thought Julia would either back out or freak out and carry on with tears...but she surprised me and did neither!

I was so proud of her! She was so happy!

Gianna at Faneuil Hall...she didn't care if anyone was watching her...she just lives in the moment...
