Mystic Seaport

An afternoon at Mystic Seaport.  Time to explore history and boating.


 I love this picture of Bryan and Eli....and the stoller.  Eli has gotten to the point that he doesn't want to be in the stroller.  Bryan let him out and he was very unsure of walking on the boards on this boardwalk.  Just a precious moment to capture.

Mystic Seaport had some great activities for the kids to do.  Unfortunately, all activities were 5.00 extra.  When Owen saw the boat building he begged to do it.  So, Bryan took Amaya, Gabe, and Owen over to the workshop.  The second unfortunate part was that it was packed!  There was little room to squeeze in and build a boat.  Bryan and I tried to explain that it was to crowded and cost extra money.   Gabe and Amaya were happy to comply and went to another activity.  Owen dug in his heals.   OWEN WAS GOING TO BUILD A BOAT NO MATTER WHAT!  I looked at Bryan and knew it was one of those moments to give in.  So, Bryan and Owen went in the chaos and built a really, really special boat and Owen just loved it!
 Everyone had a great time learning something new and exploring an old New England Seaport.
