We had beautiful weather during this trip – sometimes just cool enough to grab an extra layer but rarely downright hot or cold. Wednesday night we joined Dan’s parents and sisters (and significant others) for a concert on the common in the town where they grew up.

What’s better than a concert on the common? A Beatles Tribute Night Concert on the Common.

Sprawled out on blankets, benches and beach chairs we listened to some amazing covers of Beatles songs – the famous ones and some lesser known (to me) songs as well. The kids were able to run around with cousins and dance on the lawn with aunties and listen to some of the best music ever written. It was a perfect night.

Afterwards we took the kids to the drive in to see Smurfs 2 – it was a little buggy but everyone had a really good time and the movie was the perfect blend of cute and funny but not complex or difficult to follow – which is good because the kids distracted me a LOT and I’m sure I missed 1/4 of the movie.

All in all, it was a beautiful night and a lot of fun, too!
