Boston Day #1

Well, after a 4:00 am wake up call and a 5 hour flight we made it! Both girls did great. Em slept for 75% of the time and Tay watched tv and ate snacks. I was a bit nervous about Em. Was she going to cry, scream, not want to stay in her seat?? She did great. She's a traveler!!! 

As soon as we got off the plane we grabbed our bags and Mr. A was waiting for us with the AC running in the Suburban. It was nice. A short 20 minute drive or so and we were at our apartment. Such an old building, must be 100 years old or so. We are on the forth floor and the elevator reminds if something in Harry Potter. All four of us in there is a tight squeeze. It's old, it's sketchy, but it's pretty cool at the same time. Tay hates it! I'll make sure I get a picture. 
After we unpacked we were starving so we were on the hunt for pizza. We came across a place called, The Upper Crust. We all ordered a slice and took it over to the park and ate on one of the grassy hills. The breeze was cool but the company was the best! Tay wasn't into the pizza, crust was too thin for her. Diva. We walked around, the park is awesome. Can't wait to go back. 
On the way back to the apartment we found a little market and picked up some snacks and juice for the girls. Only to figure out as soon as we sat down, we forgot cream and sugar:( Should make for a very interesting morning. Cory may have to go out and get some come morning! 
We are all in our pajamas watching a little tv. I can barely keep my eyes open and am off to bed. I'll try to update tomorrow night. Looking forward to the adventures we get into tomorrow! 



Have a good rest of the night!

Catching Up

Hello Friends,
Here to catch you all up on what us Freestones have been up to:

The week of Mother's Day we go to Disneyland and stay at the hotel for a couple nights. Disneyland is not too far from us, but the girls love it and it is nice to be out all day and not have to drive the hour and a half or so home. Here are some of the pictures, some may be out of order.

In the lobby waiting for us to check in.

In front of the window of our room with her signed picture of Mickey Mouse!

Picture perfect view of Downtown Disney!

Club Level snacking!


My husband and Em, loving the pool!

My whole heart right here!

My loves!

Tay, Em and Sam, oh and creeper Cory in the background:)


All our little princesses!


She did not want to get up!







My pretty girl!

This is a great ride!













On our way home!

About a month or so later we went to San Diego for a couple of days. We love San Diego. The weather is always nice and the girls love it! We went to the San Diego Zoo and to Sea World. Both were awesome!











Then before I knew it, it was Taylor's birthday. How did I have her 11 years ago?!?


I have gotten back on a running schedule. It feels good. Tay got some new roller blades, so she skates and I run. It is nice to be active together. We usually go later, since it doesn't really cool off until after 7pm:) After we run/skate we head over to the park and then it is Emily's turn to run around!



I bought her a pool. She only likes it in about 10 minute intervals, she hates the flies that buzz around outside. So, 10 minutes is usually all she can handle!



Have a great rest of the day, Friends!
