You didn't think that I was crazy enough to blog about a new microwave, did you? The boys are loving the empty space where the old microwave sat. They call it their "oven house". Turns out, they'll be able to play in their oven house for a while longer, since the new microwave didn't fit into the built in. Argh!

Introducing...............Our New Microwave!
Our microwave died a couple of weeks ago, and the new one finally arrived!
Huckleberry Hill School
The boys are finally of an age when they can have fun at the playground behind our house at the Huckleberry Hill School. Last weekend, we took the kids up the hill to play and ride bikes. It was soooo windy that we didn't do much bike riding; but we still had fun.
our little climber
love that one!
Zach liked hiding from the wind under this slide
Our First Playdate With Baby Lukas!
Our friends, Evelyn & Hendrik, came over to play last week with their new baby brother, Lukas. The kids all had a great time. We never heard from Hendrik, who played silently in the playroom with the toy cars the entire playdate. Gabe, Evelyn & Zach enjoyed playing "super heroes" and dress up with the capes and costumes that my mom made for the boys. Thanks again, Mom!
Funny story. At lunch, Evelyn turned to Gabe and said, "Gabe, I love you. When I'm older, I'm going to marry you." In reply, Gabe said, "I love you, too; but I'm not going to marry you. I'm going to marry Joseph because I love him more." Gah!!!!

we only have 2 capes, so I had to put together a third cape from a towel for Zach

Evelyn & Gabe are plugging their ears as Hendrik & Zach scream at the top of their lungs; good times
Holly Hill Farm In Cohasset
We went down to visit my parents last week over school vacation. We visited two farms; the better of the two was Holly Hill Farm, right down the street from my parents' house. What fun it was! There were two ponies, goats, bunnies, chickens, etc. The farm is open all day and free to visitors. In fact, the owners leave everything open, including their supply barns; everything is on your honor. Pumpkin the pony was the big hit. Both Gabe and Zach enjoyed petting him, feeding him hay from the ground, and just watching him. Here are the cute pics:
playing with my parents' miner's light before heading to the farms
Zach's beloved train
crawling in the attic dormer, trying to find some "dark spaces" for the miner's light

and here's Zach
Zach found some fall decorations in the attic and said, "Oh my goodnethhhh"
walking at Weir Farm in Hingham
walking up the hill at Weir Farm
here we are at the top of the hill
the view from the top - you can see Boston and the ocean
then we took a walk in the "deep, dark woods" behind Weir Farm. Gabe saw a log and wanted to sit on it. it became the perfect photo op.
cute pic!
here's Pumpkin the pony
two little tomatoes
Gabe couldn't get his (big) head out of the hole. in this shot, my mom's behind the tomato wall, helping him.
Pumpkin liked to bite the fence
they were fascinated
we took another walk behind Holly Hill Farm
and we saw some men who were deconstructing an old saw mill
great day in Cohasset!
