Cousins in the Fall


Photo-A-Day #3483

Today, Andrew and I took a ride up to visit my sister Shelby and her kids. She just had a beautiful baby girl and I wanted to go up and see if I could help out and play with her son for a little while so she could take care of things. I know how tough it is to get things done while a little one is underfoot. Having two little ones who need your help constantly is really tough. So, We went up for the visit. Also, I couldn’t resist holding my new baby niece, she is so cute.

On the way up Andrew and I stopped at Snappy Dogs for Lunch. Snappy Dogs is a great little hot dog cart in Hopkinton and they serve Pearl hot dogs that are grilled on fresh baked rolls from Colella’s. They just happen to be in the parting lot of Colella’s so that makes it even better. There is such charm and character to Snappy Dogs. I just love visiting Teresa and Lisa. They are so sweet and they recognized me right away and were taken with Andrew and his antics. I got a Great Dane and Andrew got a small dog. They were both very delicious.

Hot Dog Time

Then we headed to Shelby’s. It was nice for the boys to play together. Andrew is a bit handsy with Dylan but they managed okay. Shelby went in with the baby and Andrew, Dylan and I played in the yard. I also took the time to shoot the photo of the boys above. Out of about 70 photos this one was the best. The rest are of them doing silly things, or mostly Andrew doing silly things, Dylan sat nicely for me. Here is a sequence of images that didn’t make the cut.
