Mom and Dad took me and Will out for sushi yesterday. Will had his first taste of white rice – a staple in the Koch household – and he loved it. As for me, I had rice, pot stickers and asparagus sushi. Yummy!

Dad and Uncle Mitch took me, Walker and Quinny on a canoe trip on the Charles River today. We saw an alligator, bull, Indian with an eagle on its’ head, a lizard and a tortoise. All fake of course, but we saw them!

Next up, cooking out and camping in the back yard.

I played my first games of Candyland against Quinn while Ant Suz and Walker played scrabble. After losing the first 2 games to Quinn, Ant Suz had to teach me a lesson about losing.

Dad took Quinn and his giant appetite to the Red Sox game.  2 waters, 2 bags of peanuts, 2 Fenway franks, a pretzel, ice cream w/ m&ms and a souvenir baseball later, they left when the game went to extra innings.  In case you were wondering, the ketchup for his hot dog was free so he loaded up on it and surprisingly didn’t get any on himself or anyone else.

They listened to the game on the way home and the Red Sox ended up winning 3-2 in the 11th inning.

Dad thinks this video is funny.  Mom doesn’t.

Molly’s Birthday was July 9th.  We celebrated by giving her lots of doggy ice cream in our new kitchen.  Happy 13th Birthday Molly!

  

The counters are in (as of yesterday) an we’ve wasted no time piling up stuff on them. More pictures of it to come later.

A busy 4th of July weekend.  Parade, beach, cookouts, World Cup and lots of other fun at the cape.  Uncle Mitch and Ant Laine even came down for a bit until they got sick of trying to figure out who is who in the McDonald family.
