surf and turf?

it was a beautiful sunny day here (though windy and chilly) so we decided to have some fun after church today. - first we went to our favorite farm store, hoping to get some of their awesome homemade pickles. they were out of pickles, but Q enjoyed the animals so it was still fun. he really got a kick out of the rabbit. these first few pics are him squealing with glee as the bunny hops in the cage. -

then, because the farm didn't really take too long, we decided to find a beach to let him romp on. we let the GPS guide us, with no real clue where we were going. the first beach it brought us to was hardly a beach, but it did have an awesome view of boston that we enjoyed from the car before trying again. the second beach it took us to was more beach-like, though still very rocky, as is the new england beach style. that didn't bother quentin at all since daddy showed him how fun throwing rocks into the ocean is. Q has a tantrum when we tried to leave the rocky beach so we found another spot with actual sand and let him run wild there for a while. it was freakishly cold, but he did not mind at all, and would probably still be out there if we let him!

and tomorrow is a holiday here in the bay state (patriots day!) we'd love to take him to the children's museum since we have a membership, but school vacation + boston marathon = us not going anywhere near the city. so instead we're heading down to providence to check out the zoo! fun!! i hope!
