Annual family pictures

While in Boston, we took a trip to Crane Beach. It is our favorite beach to visit. We stopped on the way at Russell Orchards to look at the animals and pumpkins but it was Saturday. Everyone was there to pick apples. We didn't stay long because it was so crazy.

We forget every year that when we get to the beach we have to walk pretty far down to get to the spot where we like to take pictures. There was also a problem with a lot of the beach being roped off to preserve nature. AND it didn't help that Elinor was a serious grump! She kept doing her fake cry and meltdowns. I didn't think it was going to work at all until we finally set the camera up and started. She thinks the beeping of the timer and us running from around the camera is hilarious. I was convinced we didn't get even one good picture until we got home and looked at the on the computer. Whew! It's not like we could go back another day.

Here is a serious overload of family pictures...

 She found a little shell, broke it apart and then was bummed

 She wanted to run into the water and walk by herself...we are so mean

 Finally made it and she could explore
