Semper Paratus
Because we have been so crazy recently, we haven’t had much of a chance to update the blog as much as we would have liked, but we are going to try to catch you up a bit! A few weeks ago, Jamie, Benjamin, and I flew up to visit Tony at the Coast Guard Academy. Little Benjamin was only 6 weeks old, and he was awarded an adorable certificate for his first flight! He was absolutely amazing, and he made it through 4 flights without fussing or crying. In fact, he slept through most of them, and when he was awake, he was all smiles. I think the smiles were all due to his airplane outfit he wore for his first flight. I absolutely love New England, but sadly, we weren’t able to make it to Rhode Island. A weekend just isn’t enough to fit everything in. We went to this awesome restaurant called Iggy’s that has some of the best clam chowder I’ve ever had in Connecticut. They also have these awesome clam cakes that are completely worth the drive! Tony was sailing most of the weekend, so we didn’t get to see him much, but we did get to see the boat and experience the freezing “spring weather” in New England. I think Benjamin prefers warm weather…he is from the Beach after all. Jamie got to see the campus for the first time, and we went to the infamous Mystic Pizza for dinner (though I still haven’t seen the movie.) The pizza is delicious though, and the walls are covered with pictures of Julia Roberts. Really…it’s amazing how good the pizza is, because you would think they would only focus on the movie aspect versus the food. On Saturday, we spent the day sleeping in and getting ready for the dance. Jamie looked absolutely amazing, and Benjamin and I got lots of bonding time! He was wonderful, and then he got a little bit sad when he realized his mommy wasn’t there anymore. But, overall, he was just precious, and I used the opportunity to take tons of pictures of him! Ben is adorable and we had an amazing time on our short trip to New England!
