Max and Esme

During our family trip in October we participated in two iconic fall activities - the cranberry harvest and scalloping. While not actively involved in the first we attended a harvest festival and got to watch them flood and collect a bog's worth of floating red gems.  Peter took us on a scallop hunt one morning and we (mostly he) collected a large bag of shellfish.  After several hours spent shucking the scallops we enjoyed a very tasty ceviche with our dinner that evening. 

Soccer season started last week, with Esme making her kindergarten debut on Team White  and Max making a strong showing for Team Brazil.  The rain we've had this week may postpone tomorrow's games, but if not we're ready to go with our fashionable pink shin guards and matching ball!
