Vacation here we come!

Instead of a beach trip this year we decided to head down to the house in Virginia and to Williamsburg for a few days. We were only at the house for a day, but got to relax and enjoy the lake for a few hours one day. Andrew loves playing with Uncle Mike and Pat and when they were awake he wanted to be with them all the time. 

                      I love the tongue out for concentration here-

Happy Graduation Amy!

We headed to Aunt Linda and Amy's house for Amy's graduation party. We ended up spending most the time in the pool so didn't really get to talk to many people. The boys had a fun time though, and besides me jumping in fully clothed to fish Andrew out from under that bottom float he was stuck under or something, we had fun too!

Pirate Adventure

We bought a groupon back in the spring with our friends the Kelly's to do a Pirate Adventure in the Harbor. We got to ride on a pirate ship and act in the play of trying to capture Mad Dog Mike with the water cannons so we could get the treasure chest back. The kids got to learn how to dance, talk and act dress like pirates. It was a really cute afternoon trip. 

If you are in Baltimore and haven't done this, I really recommend it! Such a cute day!

Fun in Maryland

We went back to Maryland for 10 days while Chris was in Seattle.  We got to spend a lot of time in the pool and sprinklers and the boys had soo much fun. There is not a better way to wear them out! 

 Playing at our friends Kendall and Wyatt's pool.

There are soo many things we miss about Maryland! We had such a fun time!

Hershey Park

As Tracy and Brian were heading out we planned a day trip to Hershey Park for a day o' fun. Dottie drove up to meet me with the boys and it turned out to be a lifesaver.  Andrew enjoyed most the rides he did, although he was a bit too small for a lot of them.  Ryan was perfectly fine sitting with Dottie in the shade most of the time since it was a 100 degree day. 

 That is me and Briana. I got suckered in to riding a few coasters with her since Brian wouldn't and I had to give Tracy a break. I forgot how scary roller coasters can be! Glad Chris likes them!

 After these two pictures, Andrew told me if since I really like taking pictures I should become a photographer when I grow up.

 Ella could have spent all day with the characters

The kids did great overall. No complaining of the heat or walking. We'll see if Disney is in our future or not?!?
