Before heading to the work event, my coworker and I walked around downtown checking out the city.

I’m staying in this hotel on the golf course... Too bad, Andrew would appreciate this much more than me.

I appreciate the nice walking closet. 🙂

I’m leaving for a business trip for the next couple of days and when I told the kids here’s how they responded:

Chloe: Don’t worry Mommy, I’ll take good care of Shane.

Shane:

So…no rules for two days?

We had a such wonderful day with the Lee’s family!!

Today we headed down to the shores with our friend’s family for a beach day.

Shane enjoyed throwing balls around with the boys then later I found him playing baseball with some other kids he just met. Cool Kid.

Kids saw a baby turtle.

Lobster rolls from Daily Bread. Look at that portions!

Chloe’s using Andrew’s body to hold the map. Clever kid.

My beautiful aunt is visiting us from L.A. and we have been enjoying her stay with us for two weeks. Today I took her and my parents to the city for some shopping and fun food on this east coast muggy hot humid day.

Lunch @ Fatty Crabs

hot panini gelato to cool off.

After breakfast,

my cute assistant/sous chef Chloe did dishes again. 🙂

Bon Apétite!

We had an amazing time with friends, ate awesome food and made great new friends today. It was so fun to watch my kids interact with older kids. It was especially entertaining to watch Shane. 🙂 He was sitting with college kids and were having long conversations during dinner. I wonder what they were talking about!

Thank you Kwan family so much for having us at your beautiful home and feeding us!
