Winter on the Cod

Summer ended too soon and Autumn was a no show on the Cape but we have managed to find so much beauty in the off season. Joe and I are finding hidden treasures while daytripping through Falmouth, Dennis, Harwich, Chatham, Eastham, Wellfleet, Turo and Ptown.

LA LA LAND COUNTY FAIR

Wow it was like we were back on the Island where Jaws lived.
The land before time was a favorite of Cooper's. He really wanted to hatch this dino egg.

So unique that all of these creatures are headless! Memere needs to work on framing the photo better, ya think!

Ruby loves the piano

This is something Ruby does at least twice a day. The same song. She love to watch this video too.

HelloTujunga

Oh she is so cute! Ruby likes her gyro bowl and is giving it a real work out. It doesn't work as great as on the commercial but she like to use it like a purse.

It's that time again when the Pumpkins are out of the garage and Memere's in Tujunga! Cooper is so excited he can hardly sit still. I surprised myself by getting this great shot.

Life is good weekend was beautiful. Lots of sunshine and just sitting around enjoying the company.

Joseph and Memere picked a pumpkin.

Jakoby and Joseph became good friends.

The rocking chairs were well used by Joseph. We can't wait till next year!

LAUNDRY DAY FROM HELL!

This is how we spent our 35th wedding anniversary!

You can't even see the three hampers under all this laundry. This was one of or worse days doing laundry. But we got through it together. Look how nice it looks all clean and folded. Ready for tomorrow. It was light out when we started Mt. Laundry and dark when we finished.

Summer Visits

Benjamin and Memere made sweet memories this past 4th of July. Pepere had some quality time with Ben too. Joseph spent a good amount of time swimming in the pool with Mumma and by the end of the stay he was using the kick board like a pro. No pictures of the swimming lessons. Next time I'll have the camera ready.
Joseph and Pepere took Choo Choo all around the property many times a day. The addition of eyes, eyebrows and a smile were a big hit. The horns are a little annoying but Joe and Joseph loved playing them. We had a fun time playing, laughing and just being together. Life is Good!

Benjamin what blue eyes you have!

Spring vacation brought the Fletcher family to Harwich for some Memere and Pepere time. It was Benjamin's first trip from New Jersey to the Cape and he did great. He is use to being held and didn't like sleeping in the car seat on his back but he is a fast learner and a good self soother. Joseph sang to Ben whenever he was crying and the ABC song did it's job. Joseph is a very attentive big brother.
The weather was cold and gray most of the week but we manager to have a great time playing and watching DVD'S. Joseph loves eating Pepere's cheese puffs!
The time went by so fast but Pepere was so happy to have the choo choo fixed for a farewell ride with Joseph around the pool. What a happy time they both had.
We're missing them all and hope the next visit will be soon and sunny.

What happens in Harwich stays in Harwich

The Inn had a very special guest all week.

Maddy made herself right at home. Shaken not stirred. She did some shaking without the shaker too. Spending the first two days under a beautiful king size bed then upgraded to at my feet for the rest of her stay, helping herself to the all inclusive "mini bar" and all you can eat homemade frozen treats. She continues to deny that she was the porn star at Charlie Sheen's last blow out party. Says she has an alibi. Maddy was picked up today by the Walpole authorities and has no comment at this time. WOOF

How cute Ruby is!!!!

Cooper didn't know what to play with first. So he played with everything at the same time.

Ruby and Mommy.

Cooper's improve of Woody with my garden hat and his winter boots. Pretty good!

LOOK AT THOSE EYES!

LOOK AT THAT BLUEBERRY!

Thank you White Family for sharing your vacation with us on Cape Cod.

WELCOME BENJAMIN

I'm so blessed to be able to hold Benjamin and to be here for his entrance into this world.

Here he is!! What a cutie.. Benjamin Bridges Fletcher. Born January 21st. 2011.

He only opens his eyes in the middle of the night when he's suppose to be sleeping.

Joseph helped me put this welcome message on the fridge for Benjamin. He's trying so hard to adjust to sharing Mommy and Daddy with his new brother.
