4th of July

This 4th of July was spent outside of Boston on the south shore. The Cooks rented a huge house in Hull - 15 minutes from Higham where Ben and Lora live. All 6 of the Cook siblings were able to come - including the 8 boy cousins. It was a great location and we loved being so close to the water. We played in the ocean at Plymouth beach, and the boys caught crabs in Nantasket. All the adults ran in the Higham 4.6 mile race and then the children joined us for the famous fourth of July parade.
With all the boys together we played a lot of sports - baseball seems to be the current favorite. It was fun to watch the boys defend their team; the Red Sox or Yankees of course. We even played a game in Hull's baseball park. We also went to the batting cages where there were go-carts to ride. With all the siblings, spouses, and cousins it wasn't hard to take over the race track. It was a great vacation and I can't wait to post some photos. I unfortunately forget the camera at home so I'll have to wait until someone emails me some pictures. Until then . . .
