Adventures of the Big Sister

With all the excitement of Gracie's arrival, Granma and Granpa did a good job of making sure Abby had some "adventures" of her own.

Special thanks to Aunt Annette and Uncle John for the thoughtful and delightful gifts that we were able to give to Abby during the first week of transition. She has about memorized the "big sister" books (and so has Granma) and loves her "puzzuh" too.


"Cows and Cones" is a nearby farm and ice cream stand that has been a favorite this summer. Abby got to look at the cows and pet the sheep and enjoy some "iceaceam" too.

Apple picking started at the local orchard over Labor Day, so Abby and Granpa picked apples and pears and raspberries for us to enjoy.


The last trip of the summer to Eastern Point Beach was a little chilly, but the sand was still fun.
