On Monday afternoon, Penny, Grams and I headed to the Duffy playground.  Things have definitely changed since Karin and I went to elementary school there but I am happy to say that after about 20 years or so, they still have the same swings, everything else has changed.  They’ve updated and expanded.  I have many fond memories of Duffy and hopefully Penny will too!

(I had a hard time getting a picture of her on the swing, this was the best)

On Saturday we headed down to visit Penny’s Great grandma, then Penny and I continued on to Cara, Joel and William’s party.  We had a great time, so great in fact that I never took the camera out!  Penny looked adorable as always in a cute cherry outfit and I did get a picture of her and Grams before we left.   Thanks  Cara and Joel for a great party!  William, I’m sorry we didn’t get to hang out, you slept the whole time!  Can’t wait to see you all soon!

Penny has gotten into a nice routine while we’ve been here.  Almost every morning Penny hangs out with Grandpa Tom before he goes to work and helps him finish his breakfast.  I think it’s one of Penny’s favorite times of the day.

It has been VERY HOT AND HUMID here the past week.  It’s been in the 90’s for a while now, and we all have been using the pool everyday.  I think PEnny is turning into a fish!

For instance, the oldest tree in West Hartford is right down the street from my parent’s house.  Who knew!

And on the way, you can find some beautiful flowers!
