We got home on Wednesday night from a long weekend at the cabin, this time Mom and Dad were there and almost all of the boys' cousins were there at some point, less Ariana who is in NYC this summer. We celebrated the fourth of July together. Here is a shot of the whole clan on the fourth after dinner.
And just because I am a picture nut I am including a bunch of others from the weekend....
Alice and Max driving in the jeep
Alice showing Tommy her favorite game on her ipad
Tommy was invited to play Deacon's Lodge golf course for the first time with the "guys"...14 is the magical age. Tommy, Poppy, Scott and Mike went. Tommy more than held his own with his score which made him very proud.
Max and Alice enjoying the morning sunshine

Max tried out the tube for the first time with Momma...loved it for 5 minutes then he was done.
...Max took his naps like this every day by the beach
The fishermen

My parents LOVE the fourth of July, they are about to celebrate their 48th Anniversary next week
the neighbors grandkids were up to their cabin too so we had a couple of BIG whiffle ball games
One of my very good friends from jr high and high school stopped over. Stacey...she lives in California now so don't see her much. It was fun to spend the afternoon with her and her kids...

I love all the pictures. I love the snacks. I love the napping baby. I love the long swim trunks. And I had tears in my eyes with the last family picture. It is a great picture of everyone. I just love it.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a wonderful time! Love the pictures of Max napping...and kudos to Tommy for the snack. I am impressed! I'll have to give him a few of my recipes to cook for you!
