Montauk with the boys










































































































Pete and I took the boys to Montauk this past weekend. It was Pete's vacation and we decided to take the boys out of school Thursday and Friday and then spend the rest of the week alone out in Montauk. Well, unfortunately, the weather didn't exactly cooperate on the days we had the boys out. It was cold, cloudy, nasty and even rained :( bummer.....there's not much to do in Montauk when it rains. So....we watched some TV, came up with creative games to play etc...On Thursday, the boys did get to play out on the beach. Pete helped them dig huge holes and took long walks together. On Thursday, there was a glimmer of 'sun' at the very end of the day and we actually dug our hole on the beach and Pete and the boys set up the bon-fire. We all sat together and toasted marshmallows and made our Smores - YUM!!! Nothing like melted chocolate on a crispy graham cracker with toasted marshmallows....it was a magical night...the boys all sat around with their big sticks giggling at how burnt they could get their marshmallows. I sat back in silence and watched my boys enjoy themselves, having fun and actually 'talking' with each other. It was an awesome night! The boys went home and then Pete and I enjoyed the rest of the weekend together. We spent all day Saturday on the beach enjoying the sun that finally decided to show it's face. Had dinner at Gosman's which I think is a bit over rated. Nevertheless, we just enjoyed being in the moment and being together. Thanks Pete for an amazing weekend. You mean everything to me!!
