A few weeks back, we made a last minute trip to Boston. Dad had to go on business, and we joined in to see the sights. After we decided to go, we were packed up and gone in less then 24 hours. The timing of it worked great in giving us a much needed break from the renovation. We were ready for a fun road trip, lots of adventure and quality time spent with the kids!
The Boston Musuem of Science was AMAZING!
He sat and stared at this boat for a LONG time.

We knew Boston would be a bit chillier then what we were used to, but had no idea what we were headed to. The night we got to the New Jersey area, a freak snow storm hit. This snow storm made a few bumps in the road for us, but we sure did enjoy the snow!
We spent a day in Plymouth, MA. This was the coldest I felt the whole trip.
After freezing on the beach, we headed to Plimouth Plantation where the kids got to explore an amazing replica of the a 17th century english plantation, and an indian village. We also got to tour a replica of the Mayflower This was a great educational trip!
Our last day was spent in NYC.
The Twin Towers Memorial was amazing, beautiful, and incredibly sad.
I was brought to tears a few times during the tour.
The 2 pools that represented the 2 towers. They contain the names of all who died.
The missing posters that were left by desperate families looking for loved ones.
Hardest part for me.....the faces of those who perished.
Central park was a nice change. I could not get over how beautiful it was!
On the way home.....quick stop in Virginia
Had a great time!
Took some pictures this afternoon of the girls
