Summer Holiday ~ USA

by Kate

This is the second half of What We Did on Our Summer Vacation. Part one can be found here.

Boston

The Seeleys have landed.
On July 14th we crossed our final border at Logan International Airport and arrived in the States. We spent the next two nights with Grandma and Grandpa Seeley at Karl's childhood home in Newton, Massachusetts, which allowed for a brief visit with Karl's parents, his sisters Mara and Lauren, and Lauren's family. Then we headed off to Lake Sunapee in New Hampshire for a family reunion with my mother's clan. My whole family (parents, my two brothers and their families) were in attendance. Which means within 48 hours of landing in the US, we had a chance to spend time with both sets of grandparents and almost all of the aunts, uncles, and cousins. (And by early August, we finally got to see Karl's brother, Joe, and his family.)

The weekend included lots of eating and family time punctuated with swimming and boating. Here are Ben and Garrett with their cousin Nora demonstrating their slipknot skills while tying my cousin to a dock chair.

Finally, on the 19th, we headed for Oneonta. Home.
