April vacation

We had a nice April vacation! The only negative was that Nana was too sick to see us or have Passover, so we didn't have it.

We went to the Peabody Essex Museum and then walked around Salem.

The next day we met Lindsay, Rosalie and Nolan at Parker's Maple Barn for a delicious breakfast for lunch. I bought some syrup to bring home, too!

Friday we went to the MFA and there were a lot of activities for kids.

One of the projects was for the kids to make a quilt, so I had them look at the quilt exhibit first.
