Happy Birthday Maura-We Love You

Maura celebrated her 6th birthday at the local ice rink. She had so much fun there with her school a few months prior, so she wanted to go back for her birthday. Her friends brought donations for the Animal Shelter in lieu of gifts & Maura was so proud to drop the items off to all the furry friends who need love! Dad was glad he didn't have to stand outside this year in the heat!

Maura's best friend takes the ice!


Daddy & Meredith wiz around the rink-I think Daddy may need the support more then Meredith!

Our Maiden Voyage...

Here we go...Our first trip in the "vacation home". For Memorial Day weekend we traveled to Chincoteague, VA with our friends. The weather was great & the girls had a blast. Meredith realized that she actually likes the beach, and learned how to ride a "big girl bike" around the campgrounds. Maura thinks our "little house" is really cool, and she had fun playing in the sand.



Meredith, Maura & their friend had fun making sand angels, I did not have fun cleaing them off!




Larry & Scott took the kids out for a boat ride-a first for our girls. They LOVED it! Maura particularly liked "bouncing up & down", I guess she means traveling over the wakes of other boats? Well, more "vacation home" fun to follow...
