Slacker!

So we have been checking out the sites here in the Rochester, NY area. The kids have loved it and have already made a few friends in our neighborhood too. MJ, LL and Claire at the Zoo

We are New Yorkers now!

It's official we are here. And loving it! We live in a nice quiet neighborhood and we have a big farm across the street. We had our friends over for dinner and the kids all played in the front yard then yesterday we went to the Lilac Festival. I have never see that many Lilac trees in my life and they were huge.
yummy corn dogs too!

we stopped to smell almost all the flowers

Thanks everyone for letting me take your pictures and have fun with your families.

Saying Goodbye, Again...

It's hard having to say good-bye to friends so soon after moving here. But off to another job and another town. So good-bye to all our friends in the Salem area we are going to miss you... but you can come visit:) Oh and check out some more pictures here. Picnic in the park (because the beach was too cold)
Tessa coming to play for the day
dinner with our Cambridge friends before they head to Virginia and we head to New York
dinner with friends/former co-workers of Matt's

And of course we had to go to the aquarium before we left too, the only thing the girls wanted to see was the shark, and then MJ wouldn't go near the glass when we finally found it.

LL loved the jelly fish

one more good-bye for our beloved Richardson's Ice Cream (Yum!)

and a stop in Toppsfield at the homestead of Joseph Smith Sr

The Invisible Wall

I just finished this book. I thought it was good, it takes place in London and it's a story about how Jewish and Christian people didn't interact. But how a marriage breaks down their invisible wall between faiths.

Crazy Weeks

So we have had a lot of fun visitors in the last couple of weeks. We got to take a lot of tours and saw our beloved Boston before we move. Yes there it is we are moving outside of Boston. Actually to Rochester, NY. Here are a couple of our fun pictures. Mark and Natalie on Beacon Hill (congrats on the engagement!)
