Yesterday was the hottest day yet for us here in Rhode Island - 81 degrees and I loved it! I've been waiting six long months for this. I overdid it a little bit, though, and went on a super long walk and got super sunburned. Wamp. Wamp. (or insert appropriate noise from Charlie Brown for a swing and a miss here)
Today Drew and I went to the Great Chowder Cook-Off here in our hometown. It was extremely, extremely crowded. I would definitely recommend that they limit the number of tickets they sell, but nonetheless, the chowder was very tasty and it was a wonderful kick-off to our New England summer. The best chowder we had was from The Boat House in Tiverton, RI. It was a shirmp, pollack, and corn chowder. Delicious!!
We've been busy again with visitors, which we absolutely love! Drew's best friend, Adam, came out for a visit the week before Memorial Day. Our friends, Tim & Christa, spent a night with us before they left Rhode Island for good, which we are super depressed about. And right now we have a four-legged little houseguest staying with us while her parents are out of town for the weekend. I love dogs and it's kind of nice having one around, but it is also a pretty big commitment. In addition to our dog sitting duties this weekend, Drew and I also did some babysitting last night. We babysat a little dreamboat named Liam, who is indescribably in love with Drew. Or Brew as he calls him. Liam has two older brothers, but last night we just had him all to ourselves and I think he relished in the attention. We played t-ball in the yard, went on some walks around the house, and did lots of laughing.
I think our summer is off to a great start. Hope all of yours are too!

Adam and Drew both learned how to tie a bowtie on his visit.
What gentlemen. |
