Mimi and Papa Jack's visit: Part II

Here we are again, with the second "catch-up" post from my parents' visit. Once of Lucy's favorite places is the site of Thoreau's house at Walden Pond. Over the years visitors have stacked up rocks; a dream come true for ambitious toddlers!

One of the highlights of our time with Mimi and Papa Jack was our visit to the swan boats and the Boston Gardens. Here is a view of another boat.

And a very creative shot from my mom of our own boat.

Lucy enjoyed looking at the ducks and the other boats.

On the common afterwards, Lucy discovered the joys of chasing pigeons.

And we had a lovely picnic.In the afternoon Papa Jack and Matt took Lucy home, and mom and I went to the Isabella Stuart Gardner museum, one of my favorite museums. Visiting it with my mom is becoming a special tradition.

Another day we went on an adventure to Harvard Sq. Lucy loves going "wheee" (as she calls it) with her Mama and Papa.

Papa and Lucy bouncing on the trampoline.

On a hike in woods near us. Papa Jack and Lucy kept hiding and then jumping out and surprising us. And Lucy learned a lot about the woods from her Papa Jack.

Lucy loves playing the piano at my grandparents' house, and has started to play with one finger at a time.

Grandma, me and Lucy, Grandpa, and Mimi!
