Vacation at Nana and Grandpa's

Michael, Molly, and Baby Tommy had a wonderful vacation at Nana and Papa's house. They loved being with family and friends, exploring the pond, and running around.

We took a train in to Boston and Michael and Molly both got to wear the conductor's hat. A real treat for their first train ride!





We visited Uncle Sean at work in the Massachusetts State House. It was great to meet his coworkers and see the beautiful building and city.







But our favorite moment was when we got to celebrate Nana's retirement at a party filled with beautiful and hilarious tributes. All of Nana's friends from Hingham and Foster School celebrated her love and the contributions that she has made over the past 33 years. They have been amazing friends and such a supportive and thoughtful community and will clearly miss her presence. Congratulations to Nana. We're excited to have you full-time!

Aunt Joanne and Caroline came to visit, surprising not only Nana, but also Michael, Molly, and Thomas.





We visited the farm and saw all of the animals including hens, roosters, goats, chickens, dogs, and of course horses. Michael and Molly both got to feed the horses treats and loved exploring.

So good to see such great pictures of such special people. How wonderful to celebrate Nana's retirement. Now they can spend more time with your family, something they want to do. Congratulations Betsy on the many years and gifts you have brought to the students at Hingham. Looking forward to seeing all of you soon.
Love and God bless,
