Mom and Gramee, part 1

This post is long overdue.  Back in July, my mom and grandma came out to visit us for a few days.  We had such a great time!  The first night was the Fourth of July, and we all sat on the roof to watch fireworks.  We couldn't really see much, but we all enjoyed ourselves.  The next day, mom, Chris and I headed out to Coney Island to check out the beach!

It was really, really hot.  I mean HOT.  We had to take a shade break on our way to finding a good spot to put our stuff down.

Mom and I swam a little bit while Chris guarded our towels.

 

Usually it is me taking pictures of my feet in the sand, but believe me when I tell you, this is not my foot.

 

On the way home on the subway.  Long trip.

That afternoon, Chris went to work, and mom, gramee and I went to the Met.  It was late and they were almost closed but we wanted to check out the Picasso exhibit. 

It was neat!  They had a headphone tour that you could use for free.

They also had a room with a couple of different videos examining some of Picasso's work, which was very cool.

I had to take this picture - not necessarily of the art on the walls, but of the hat!  Check that thing out!  It could be dangerous if you were too close to her!  But I liked it and thought it was cool that she was wearing it. 

Okay, I guess I'll have to finish up next time, with what I think was the highlight of their trip for mom and Gramee!
