Shaz by the Sea

I LOVE MY COUSINS! We went to Honey Pot in Stowe this past weekend with Jim's sister, Mark, and the boys. It was such a great spot. They had apple picking, hay rides, hard cider, petting zoo and so much more. And the best part was that it was like 2 minutes from Auntie T's house! After apple picking, we went on a fun little hike through the neighborhood and wooded areas - it was so fun. The kids loved it. I made an apple pie at Theresa's house - yet when I got home, it fell out of my car and smashed on my driveway. My plate plate broke and the pie was ruined.  The next day, my mom made me a new pie with a smiley face. Nicest thing ever. Then we went to the eye doctor - Spiderman, Batman and Mom....we got a great report. Chrissy, Lindsey, and Charlie came to visit!  Linds and I walked to the boys elementary school to scoop them up, and we all ran home. Great workout, great fun. So many Hancock cousins came by to...

I took a 6 month hiatus from Shazbythesea - but I am back!! To recap the last few months - we spent a ton of time in the Cape - as much as we can with working and such. We went to the Cape for a week over the Fourth of July and again the first week in August, then some random weekends here and there, as well as Labor Day. Here are some pics from those trips! My friend Katie came down and the kids love her - especially Conor ;)  They always look for shells together. Conor actually took this pic! We finished our basement and we are SO excited!! It's great timing with the cooler weather coming up. This gives the kids another space to play. We love it so far. Jim just finished the pool table too! We also went swimming in a friends pool (heated!) and it was awesome. The kids have been so much more comfortable in the water this summer. It's been unbelievably easier and way more fun! ...
