Mom-Mom and Aunt Molly arrived on Friday, 5/4, to visit for the weekend.  They arrived just in time to visit Sarah’s school for Shabbat.

That afternoon we relaxed at home and Mom-Mom even dressed up as a pirate!  We had a nice dinner at home and took it easy.

The next morning we got ready for a trip to the Norwalk Aquarium.

The kids loved the baby sea turtle, “Squirt”.

Then we had some snack and played at the outdoor sandbox at the aquarium, before heading back in to see the Pandas Imax movie.

After the movie we went across the street for some tacos at El Segundo.  After all, it was Cinco de Mayo!

Then we drove back to Larchmont for the kids’ swimming lesson.  Aunt Molly had decided she didn’t want to go swimming, but then once she saw how great it looked she changed her mind and dove in!  Fully clothed!  We had a moment where everyone in the pool looked totally surprised/nervous, but then Aunt Molly showed off her swimming skills and everyone relaxed.  And laughed.  Luckily, I had a bag full of clothes headed to Goodwill in the trunk, so Aunt Molly was able to change into an old maternity top and some jeans with holes in the them.  🙂

That night we had some yummy dinner on the patio and then headed inside to see Justify win the Kentucky Derby.

Sunday morning Mom-Mom and Aunt Molly were up so early we didn’t even see them before they left!  Thanks for visiting, we had a wonderful time!!

Here’s Blaine showing off his new skill at the playground — tall enough to reach the bar!

That afternoon we drove over to Tarrytown for lunch at the Bridgeview Tavern (with a view of the Tappan Zee bridge).  After lunch we found an actual fire boat docked on the river and stopped to have a look.

On our drive back we passed by a New Balance store and stopped to get Sarah a new pair of shoes (since her not-so-old sparkly light-up Twinkle Toes pair turned out to be pretty uncomfortable!).
