New England Fall 2013

Because of The Old Man's job change we had the chance to take a few weeks to visit my family on the East Coast. We rented a cabin on the lake that I have fond memories of visiting as a child. Many days family and friends would come up to see us. We did a lot of barbecuing and spent even more time in the water or on the rowboat and kayaks. Of course we also did a lot of touristy things; museums, a theme park, and even a New England Patriots game. Here are some of our favorite pictures.

"a horse of a different color"

too much scifi

We're all sitting around the table playing with Wikki Stix this morning and Medium holds up his creation and asks if it looks like a wormhole.

The only thing that could have made this nerdy mama more proud is if he told us it was an Einstein-Rosen bridge.

Medium: Where are these teams from?
Dad: Well this one's from Kansas City.
Medium: CANDY CITY? That's awesome!

our geocaching find

Medium has been showing a lot of interest in exploring the world with our Barefoot World Atlas app lately so I thought I'd take the opportunity to do a little geography lesson. Since the Cat in the Hat is always a favorite around here, he picked up There's a Map on My Lap! from the library and learned the basics. Then we used our new found knowledge to go on our first Geocaching adventure. 


We brought a little giraffe to leave as a treasure, signed the logbook to show we were there, and came home with a tiny neon green ninja. 

After our treasure hunt we celebrated with some lilikoi sorbet.
