Copley farmer's market

We went to visit Susan at the Copley Square farmer's market today. We bought some great garlic chutes, fava beans, and rainbow swiss chard. And Ben got to see downtown Boston for the first time!

Work on the fire station has been moving right along while we've been distracted by Mr. Ben's arrival. Windows went in, insulation was installed, we got a new front door, and this week the walls are being put up. If we don't go for a few days, we hardly recognize it!

Meeting grandma and great grandma

Last weekend Ben's grandma Sandy came for a visit from South Carolina to meet him.



We went to the nursing home on Sunday to meet great-grandma Aldea.





Four generations in one place!

Ben-B-Q

We had some friends over to meet Ben on Sunday (June 7). He slept through most of it, but enjoyed meeting everyone nonetheless!
