Our visit to the Mystic, CT Aquarium (April 11)
This truly was a wet day at the aquarium. We really enjoyed the east coast rain as well as the many different animals that were at the Mysitc Aquarium.
Sumpter Family visits us from Delaware (May 16-17)
Phillip's family made the journey north to come and stay with us in our little apartment for a short but fun-filled weekend. We enjoyed cramming into our little apartment and playing games together. We also drove around and visited some of the sites of Avon, Connecticut- including visiting the largest tree in Connecticut!
Our visit to Newport, Rhode Island (May 18th)
We loved traveling up to Rhode Island and seeing the beautiful city of Newport. We went and toured the Vanderbilt mansions which were unbelievable. They were huge and right on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. The scenery was breathtaking.
Robin's mom and sister Becky visit us from Utah (May 22-25)
We had tons of fun with my mom and Becky while they were here with us. We visited the city of Essex where we rode a vintage steam train and went on a ferry boat ride. It was a great way to see the beauty of Connecticut. We also went to Mystic where we shopped at many cute boutiques. We are so grateful that they were willing to make the long journey to come and see us!
Our Many Visits to the Sumpter Family in Delaware
We have had the chance to visit Phillip's family in Delaware about once a month while living here in Connecticut. While on these trips we have had fun riding bikes, going to the beach, celebrating Phillip's 25th birthday, playing tennis in their back yard, and many other fun activities.
Though it's hard to leave, we are extremely excited for our new adventure... law school!! Phillip is starting law school this August at BYU. We start our journey back west this Saturday. We are moving forward with our lives, and looking forward with much hope to the future.
