Birthday Celebrations



Daniel took the day off work for Abby's birthday.  We had a wonderful day together!  We took Abby into Boston to the New England Aquarium.  She loved looking at all the fish, penguins, and other sea creatures.  She also enjoyed riding the subway and visiting Daniel's office.  After lunch we headed home for a short nap before going for swimming lessons.  Abby loved showing off her swimming skills for Daddy!   

We ordered Chinese take-out for birthday dinner and celebrated Abby's birthday with a little chocolate cake.  To end the fun filled day we walked the gardens at the Long Hill Reserve here in Beverly.  It was a great day celebrating the life of our sweet Abby!

My sister, Tara, flew out from Minnesota for a few days to celebrate Abby's birthday.  Abby and I had a lot fun showing her the sights.  We visited our favorite park, explored historic Rockport, and enjoyed a beautiful afternoon on the beach at Plum Island.  Abby had a great time playing with Auntie Tara in the sand!

 

Daniel and I planned a birthday party for Abby with some of our close friends on Saturday.  It was a fun afternoon of food, cake, opening gifts and visiting with good friends.
