Home from the beach...

This years Myrtle Beach vacation was such a blast!! We liked it so much we booked the same place for 2 weeks next year before we left! There was sooooo much to do, we couldn't fit it all in. Hunter enjoyed the beach and riding his boogie board, ALL DAY LONG!!!! Todd and I enjoyed sitting on the beach and watching everyday. On Thursday we got to see a 3ft. shark swim onto the beach. It was very cool, unfortunately, Hunter was at the movies with his cousin so he missed it. I didn't get back in the water that day either! Hunter climbed his first rock wall and made it much farther than we expected! He is our little monkey boy! Monkey see, monkey do!!! It was great to spend some time with Todd's Aunts, Uncles and cousins. We can't wait to do it again next year!

Ocean City Trip

This past weekend, my sister and I took the kids to OC. My parents were there on vacation, and we couldn't let them have a full week of quiet time without their grandkids! No Way!!!! We went over Wed. and came home Fri. night. The kids had a blast! We went on a Pirate Adventure where they got to fight a mean pirate, pull up treasure and found a message in a bottle. It was about an hour long boat ride in the canal. Very cute! It was the highlight of Hunter's trip! Now we are doing laundry and packing everything up for our family vacation in Myrtle Beach! We leave on Sat. and I can't wait to have my toes in the sand and a drink (of water of course) in my hand!

Independence Day 2008

Hunter had a great time with the sparklers this year!

We celebrated the 4th at Aunt Judy and Uncle Mark's, then went over my friend Keri's on the 5th. She is a friend from work who has a son, Blake, who is the same age as Hunter. They play very well together. As you can see he enjoyed the fireworks too! We had a great time and hope everyone else did too. We are still trying to recuperate from our BUSY weekend!

Orioles vs. Royals with the Girls!

My office took us to the O's game for an outing. It was alot of fun! They reserved a room for us and had it catered w/ food and drinks! A few of the "fun" girls went out to Pickles Pub after. Girls and drinks out on the town...you know that is trouble! We all made it home safely though. I even passed Todd's quiz on who won the game, who we played, what the score was and in what inning did we win! I am not a big baseball fan and he wanted to see if I payed any attention to the game... I showed him! I scored an A+;)

First Crabs of the Season!

It takes muscle to get into these crabs! He did great for his first time picking his own meat!

Just to give you an idea of how big.... Remember Coors Light cans are taller than normal coke or pepsi cans!

This is how we do in in Maryland!!! Today Todd's boss treated us to dinner, we had the best crabs! As the pictures show they were almost as big as Hunter. He also learned how to clean his own crabs today. He's 4, so it's about time he learned! He did a good job, of course we checked them when he was done!
