My niece, Donna, and her son, Connor, came to visit last week. While they were here, it was like a mini-vacation for Motor Man and me. I’ve been trying to decide how to share with you the many adventures we had and have determined that it will take more than one post, regardless of how brief I am. So, here’s the first installment.
One of our outings was a trip to Williamsburg, which involved a ferry ride. I happened to remember a photo, taken in 2009, of Connor and me on the same ferry. So we had fun with a little re-enactment.
When Marshall came to visit with us later in the week, he and Connor indulged me with yet another re-enactment. This before photo was also from 2009.
All this growing on Connor’s part jogged something in Motor Man’s mind, resulting in this:
As you can see, Donna was looking on, while Gypsy couldn’t understand why no one was paying attention to her. But, with Motor Man’s precise measurements, we learned that, since the last time we checked during their visit two years ago, Connor has grown nearly seven (7) inches.
Although we had some true adventures, which I’ll share with you on Friday, we also spent quite a bit of time “just” visiting. Which meant more pictures….
And hugs.
Friday will be the action part of the vacation. Get ready: it’s pretty fast-paced.
