Waves in the Sand

Andy and I went over to the Ball Field today so that we could drive around my remote control car. We also brought he Zing Bows and Arrows so that we could shoot them across the field. Andy had fun running after the arrows and chasing around the car. He drove it a few times as well. This new RC car is really fast and with two batteries I can run it for about a half hour before we are done.

On the way back we walked along the beach. It had been quite windy the night before and the sand had these wavy ripples to it. Andy wanted to go take a photo of them but he got too close to see the ripples. I took the one above to show how the wind made the ripples.

Tonight we had my sister Shelby, her husband Tim and her kids over for dinner. Allison and Eva came down today as well. They were home because they had haircuts scheduled for today. It gave me some extra time with Andy. I took Andy to the movies this afternoon, too. He had been waiting for the cousins to arrive and so to take his mind off it and to stop him from constantly asking I figured that we’d go catch a movie and that way he’d be distracted. We saw Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and he really enjoyed it.

A Visit With Grandma and Some Captain Baker’s Donuts

Today Andy, Tara dad and I went to Harwich to visit Grandma Bennett. Along the way we stopped at Marathon sports so dad could get some new sneakers. We also stopped at Captain Baker’s Donuts so that we could get a bunch of Easter themed donuts. We went to Captain Baker’s last Summer and it was an amazing place with fantastic donuts. Today Andy made his own donut a Chocolate cake donut with maple glaze bacon and caramel drizzle. It looked amazing except for maple, I’m not a fan. I got a few of the Glazed and Confused donuts. What I did not know until they were done making them was that the yellow drizzle was banana. I hate banana. Luckily, it was not a overpowering taste and when I ate the donut I could not taste banana at all. I also got a couple of other donuts to bring home and one for Grandma and one for Dad plus some gluten-free ones for Tara and my mom.

Half Dozen Captain Baker Donuts

We took the donuts to Grandma’s house and ate them there. Grandma was so happy to see us. It has been a while since we’ve been able to go for a visit. Grandma could not believe how tall Andy has gotten. He’s nearly taller than her at this point.
