Beach, Birthday, Back to School

August was a busy month! We started by traveling.  We went to the Poconos to meet up with my dad's side of the family and stayed for one night....because we were headed to the beach!  It was a full 24-hours of fun :)







We arrived at the beach on Saturday afternoon and headed straight to the water!


It was a busy week - but oh so much fun.  Kevin's brother and sister-in-law were there with us and we did "all the things".



Peter got a belated birthday gift (nerf gun!) and Chloe got an early one (karaoke microphone!!)




A highlight for everyone was the Dolphin Cruise that we did.  Look how close we got to the dolphins! They liked swimming in the boat's wake.







When we got back, it was time to celebrate Chloe's 10th birthday with our family!  Look at her blowing out all the candles :)


She got to have a friends part this year too - American Girl Doll themed.  10 sweet girls came to celebrate her and she had a blast (and got a lot of nice gifts!)







Chloe's birthday signals that school is right around the corner.  Our first day was last week.  4th grade and 3rd grade for Chloe and April. Kindergarten for Peter!!

Camping Trips #2 and #3

At the beginning of August, we went on a camping trip with my immediate family. We had great campsites, right next to each other, and had fabulous weather. Chloe had a great time hanging out with her Aunt Laura, Uncle Bill, and Aunt Michelle: She also loved my dad's cell phone ringtone: Who says you can't eat great food while you're camping? Check out our dinner feast on Saturday night....Corn on the cob, cheeseburgers, grilled pineapple: Chloe had her first taste of the "beach" when we went to the lake one day. It was the first time she was in the sand, and I think she really liked it! When looking back at the camping pictures, I realized that Chloe wore a lot of hats on this trip: We got back from a Cousins Camping Trip on Sunday night. (Almost) All my cousins got together for the weekend and we had a great time. Another camping trip with good campsites and this time we just had okay weather. It rained Saturday night so everything was a bit soggy on Sunday ...

I hope he's not moving in....
