The Klein's come to BOSTON!!

Wow, I was about to say last weekend, until I realized this has now been 3 weeks ago. . .  I'm really behind, and time is going by too quickly!  3 weekends ago, my sister Angi made a quick trip to Boston with her husband and two oldest kids.  They were only going to be in town for 24 hours starting Thursday night, so we picked the kids up from school, got everything ready and left as soon as Brad got home from work.  We met them in a cute little town called Rockport.  Home of a red building that is speculated to be in the most paintings/works of art ever.  In the morning we took a quick trip around the little fishing village and then the mandatory trip to the beach to collect seashells.  {I always know how to entertain my family. . .I just take them somewhere to collect cool rocks or shells.  Its always a hit with us. . .we come from a long line of collectors =0).  Angi is no exception.}

 Then we drove to Boston to walk the freedom trail.  On the way there, I drove with Angi and the girls, Lauryn, Olivia and Gwen and Brad drove with Grant.  Angi told me stories of funny things she has done the entire way there.  Angi's stories are my favorite ever.  I cried laughing most of the 45 minute drive.

Some of the highlights of the freedom trail were Mikes Pastries and Gwen's participation in the street act.  I will post a video as soon as I can figure it out.   She was really brave!
