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.

It was 75 degrees and sunny on the Cape today. That means it’s a beach day…Will’s first!

The Easter bunny was good to Will and me this year – he apparently wants me to play sports as he left me a tennis racket and soccer ball with my Easter basket!   Will got bibs, pacifiers and a chew toy which we expect Molly will destroy within the week.  The annual Egg Hunt at Nana and Papa’s with all the cousins was tons of fun and so nice and sunny, and with the kitchen wall down, Mom and Dad actually sat 18 for Easter dinner!

The day was off with a bang when Dad and I got to lick the mixer after Mom made chocolate chip cookies, and Dad tried to steal mine!  And it only got better from there - 

Ash and Andy over for shamrock Guinness and pizza!

Green eggs and asparagus for dinner!!!

Mom and Dad forgot to post these pictures from when Will and I got to tell Santa what we wanted for Christmas.  All I told him I wanted was a pink scooter and that’s what I got.  Dad’s still not sure why Will still has his pajamas on, but Mom didn’t care.

It’s been a long weekend for everyone and tomorrow is a big day or the family. Will goes to school with me while mom goes back to work. It’s a rainy Sunday and the Pats are on. Nap time!

Will has a growth on his nose so it’s time to go see the doctor. The nice doctor drained it and then antibiotics for the next 10 days. Unplanned trips to the doctor around a holiday is now expected. Lucky for us, the next one isn’t until Easter!
