Our Trip with the Herrings to Connecticut!

The Creamery

We had the most fabulous week last week!!! We went on vacation, just kids and mommies, with the Herring clan to Connecticut! Our daddy was of course out of town again so it seemed like the perfect thing to do! The Herrings came into town on Monday and we spent some time at our pool, Cannon loved the slide! And then of course every visitor has to make the trip to the Creamery!!! We packed the kids up bright and early Tuesday morning and set out for Easton, PA and the Crayola Crayon Factory. The kids had a ball and no trip there is complete with out the Canal Museum!! LOL.... But Danielle and I both decided that a better name would be the Crayola "Craft Center" been there, done that, don't need to do it again!!

 After lunch we headed for CT. Of course my dear friend felt the need to take me over one of the world's scariest bridges, the GW bridge into Manhattan, and that is where our 2hour trip from Crayola to CT turned into a 4 hour trip!! Yikes!!! The kids were troopers... only had to stop in the Bronx to feed makes. Danielle and I were dying of laughter!!!  Probably not the best part to pull over with a car load full of kids!!

The Workmans, Justin, and the Herrings
Wednesday was a trip to NYC!!! I LOVED it. I am a city girl.  I need to bring Aaron back and really explore. We met up with our good friend from elemtary school and high school team mate, Justin Tarquino. We told the kids that they could call him many things. But once they heard that they could meet Tarq the Shark, that was it. They were sold! We ate on Mars and the kids loved it!! Molly may not have been too sure about the aliens, but that's what Grandma Goetz's lap is for! We then toured Times Square, Toy's R Us, and Rockafeller Center. Molly loved seeing "her girls" at Toys R Us and riding the ferris wheel! She did such a great job and Macon was such a good boy, like always!  To top off a super day the kids went slip n sliding!! They LOVED it!! and if walkign NYC didn't tire them out enough... that sure as heck did!!!

Times Square
Thursday was a relaxing day at Grandma Goetz's beach!! The kids got burried, played in the water, ate ice cream and fought like only brother and sister can!!! They totally have a love hate relationship. One minute they are fighting like cats and dogs the next they are "where's my cannnon?" To reload our tanks we went out for an awesome pizza dinner! Molly ate 4 pieces.. yes 4!!! I ate 2 to put it in perspecitive for you Pap Pap (Danielle's dad) ate 3. The girl loves her pizza!!!
