The Littlest Visitor


This past weekend we had our littlest visitor come stay with us. My brother and five-year-old niece came to visit from Dallas. At first I was shocked when my brother told me back in September that he was interested in coming to stay a weekend with us--particulary in November, when the weather starts to turn chilly. Then I got so excited that I would finally be able to show them our house and our city.

We spent the weekend within a 1/2-mile radius... never straying from the North End/Waterfront, except for a boat ride over to Charlestown to see the U.S.S. Constitution, and a jaunt Saturday night to the BC/Duke football game in Chestnut Hill. We took three trips to the Aquarium, two to Quincy Market, one to the IMAX theater, and had lots of fun taking digital pictures of our weekend and printing them out for a little photo album for S. to bring home to show her mom, little brother, and friends. When she returned home, her mom asked her if she wanted to go live with Aunt S. and Uncle P.--to which she replied that she couldn't because they were going to have a baby. Eventually. Thanks for the great visit, J. & S. Posted by Picasa

hehe. you know, they say kids can sense stuff. maybe soon... ;)
so glad that you had such a wonderful time with your brother and niece. that's a wonderful idea about making an album for your little visitors. i'll have to keep that in my memory bank, although its capacity is questionable these days. :)
