Vacation

We took a trip before Chloe's birthday and got to see some dear friends. They have moved to New Jersey and we stayed overnight with them ~ and enjoyed their pool in between raindrops! All the kids enjoyed the unicorn pool float....

Did I get any pictures of our friends? Us? Of course not!







The second part of our trip was a family reunion in the Poconos, and Peter rested up on the drive there.


It was very rainy the first afternoon and evening and night.....but we stayed dry and had good weather for most of the weekend.  Of course, one highlight for the kids was the tractor ride!



The third part of our trip was to see Kevin's side of the family....and Peter rested up on the way there :)



After seeing Grandma's new place, we headed back to Grandpa's house for dinner and birthday celebrations



One happy girl with her gifts from Uncle Mark and Aunt JungMin!

On Monday (part 4?) we went to the beach! It was a wonderful, relaxing day!




On Tuesday we saw Grandma again, had lunch together, and then Chloe got more gifts!


We headed back on Tuesday afternoon.  The next two weeks were busy celebrating, and my next post will be on the scavenger hunt the kids did with their cousins. We are having our "last day of summer" today -- school starts tomorrow!!!

Wedding!

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Martin! :) We attended Natalie and Dallas' wedding on Saturday and had a lovely time. We know both the bride and groom from college....and just happen to be great friends with the bride's parents as well (Hi Bill and Doreen!). Here is the new couple - Natalie looked beautiful, and Dallas looked pretty good too ;) Here I am with the bride - check out her BLUE shoes! No wedding is complete without a little dancing and singing....particularly to Livin on a Prayer....Steve, Jeff, and Kevin sang at the top of their lungs and performed an air guitar solo: even the bride joined in: We had a great time! I'm thinking of the honeymooners.....kind of wishing I was on a tropical island somewhere too! :)

Baby Pool

Want to guess when Baby #2 is going to arrive? Post a comment, or send me an email, with your guess and I'll add you in! As a review, here are the rules to the game (taken from Heather Deterding!): 1. Post your guess for the baby's arrival in the "comment" section. Be sure to specify both date and time of day -- either "am" or "pm". 2. Limit one guess per person, and only one entry per time slot-- no sharing! 3. Winner is determined based on time of birth. For example, if the baby is born on April 20th at 7 AM, a guess of "April 20th, AM" would be the winner. In the event that there is no entry for the correct arrival time, the next closest guess based on actual time of birth would win. 4. We will post entries on the Calendar above. Check prior entries before placing your guess! Dates not displayed on the calendar above are still up for grabs. 5. The winner will receive... bragging rights and a congratulatory post h
