Gaga and Jimmy's Visit

Last week Gaga and Jimmy came for a visit from monday through saturday morning.  It was super fun, but I have to say the best part for me was going to a hotel tuesday night, just me and Shelby and getting to lay around in bed and watch Ellen the next morning.  Plimouth Plantation was awesome though and I can't wait to go back and spend more time talking with all the knowledgeable people about life in colonial times.  Thanks so much for everything guys!  It was a great visit for all of us Francis folk!

Friday Mia took the day off of school for a "family field trip"  to Plimouth Plantation.  It was really cool and Gaga bought us a membership so now we can go back whenever we want for the whole year!  I'm sure Mia had a much more enriching experience here than she could possibly had that day at school.

Gaga and us sitting in front of Paul Revere's house.  You aren't allowed to take pictures inside.  This was the only shot I got, so it's not the greatest, but it's historical proof that we were there.  :)


Lennon checking out the lobster at Union Oyster House, the oldest continuously operated restaurant in America.


Mia was so brave and held the lobster for this picture.  Notice the menu in the lobsters claw.



Mia chowin' down on some pasta next to Jimmy who was reasonable and got seafood. 


Mia asked question for the first time as we were walking through this holocaust monument and I explained a little bit about it to her.  She's so awesome.


Gaga gave me lots of relief from pushing the stroller around town.
