This was not easy to motivate on day #2!

From Griffin's teacher...

Jet Skiing

Despite rainy weather, Tim took the kids out to ride ( and drive ) jet skis!  Griffin is a pro!

The crazy fun we have!

It just goes on and on and on!

Cooking night! ( and day).

Always a bit tense...the annual cooking day...shopping, cutting, baking, melting, cooking food for almost 40 people!  We pulled it off!

At the beach!

We had some really gorgeous days ( and a few rainy ones too).

My morning view

Not too bad  with a cup of coffee!

Road trip to NC

Not a bad trip...Sydney drove and we bought twinkies!!!

D'Antonios

We ditched the food trucks and enjoyed a nice dinner at D'Antonios!

RIP Mittens

Our fatty cat, Mittens didn't have a good outcome after an interaction with some raccoons went bad.  Poor not so little guy suffered. Sad...and not the same without him.

Surprise!

Katie, Sofie, Hannah and Isabelle surprised Josie at the airport.  Boy was she surprised.  The pictures say it all!

Lee and Josie meet up!

First moments being reunited with Josie!

Happy Early Birthday Sharon!

Such good friends...Sydney wasn't in town for her birthday so she surprised Sharon with cupcake cones!

Goodbyes til next summer

All good things must come to an end....see ya next summer
