Our first (and honestly ONLY trip planned for this very short summer we have this year!)... a trip to Boston to finally getting to see our family and loved ones we have missed so very, very much! The last times we have been able to squeeze them and give smooches was way back in January 2020 when we took an epic trip to Disney to celebrate the end of Christmas and New Years together. Now that seems a LIFETIME ago. So this was a much- anticipated trip for sure. And we certainly made the most of it. We spent so much time laughing and eating and playing and laughing and eating some more and then laughing about it all over again! What a fun week and we can't WAIT to have our cousins come down and visit us here soon!! We love our Band of Burkes!!!
| And we're off! |
| When traffic is at a complete standstill.... |
| ...you get out and stretch your legs! |
| These two. |
| Are just too much. |
| And so are these two. |
| Teddy did A LOT of sleeping on this trip! |
| Mikey took the inaugural dip into Papi's pool this year! |
| We missed these girls soooo much! |
| Teddy is ready for a little walk, even if it's raining. |
| Kaitlyn helping Danny build |
| And showing the pups her jumping skills |
| While Mikey and John row away |
| We ate delicious food! |
| And played fun games at Ryan's Arcade |
| Who can resist a 'claw'?!!! |
| Kaitlyn learned that it's a little chilly and windy in Plymouth :) |
| The girls got to have sleepovers |
| And facetimes were the cutest! |
| Breakfasts of Champions! |
| All while Teddy slept... |
| And slept.... |
| We celebrated the best 4th of July |
| Teddy even woke up to celebrate some too |
| Pool party fun |
| And you know the SC Burke Band brought some fireworks from down south for some fun! |
| Just make yourself comfy Teddy |
| Yep- that looks like a good spot |
| Oh- the 'tweenage' life |
| Then we went to Brookes pool for more swimming fun |
| And we got to watch a real firework display on the Cape |
| Teddy and Nike are the absolute BEST of friends |
| Well.... second best of friends <3 |
| Uncle Matt has a great yard to 'zoom' in |
| And Teddy loves to swim in their pool too |
| The girls had a sleepover with Molly |
| While mom and dad had a date night and celebrated their 'anniversary' |
| Did I mention that Teddy did a lot of sleeping?? |
| The girls made a few bracelets |
| Mikey did a few more jumps |
| And even got to eat a turkey leg! |
| And then it was time for the ride home |
