Those kids...

Grammie picked up the kids and took them to the playground one day when I had to work late...  Love those kids!

Great-Grandma Helen

We got to see Great-grandma Helen a lot last month while she was visiting Connecticut.  We loved spending time with her, even wanted to FaceTime with her when she was just in Hartford!

Town Fireworks

First time we saw REAL fireworks as a family!  Ethan LOVES them, even though it was late and he was tired.  Elodie also got tired and was a bit bothered by the noise, but it was fun and something we hope to make a tradition!

NYC Trip

We finally made it back to NYC for a quick trip to visit done friends and favorite places!!  Elodie has Brooklyn in her blood and immediately felt at home. Ethan was totally overwhelmed with all the stimulation and was quite crabby and needy. We still all had fun!

Here are some highlights:

Tyre Family Fireworks Garage Show

Happy 4th of July!

It was a rainy 4th of July this year but we were able to spend the day with friends and family and lots of lobster! I think we also started a new tradition; Michael and Elodie ran out to walmart at 8:30 to buy some fireworks and set up a show for the kids in the driveway by 9:00!  The kids were MESMERIZED by these little firecrackers!
