Summer is Just Begining

Ok, here is another long awaited post. So it's nearly the end of June, and the summer has already been a lot of fun. Our most recent fun outing was our day trip to Ocean City yesterday. I took the kids down, with Rachel, Jim, J.t. and Valerie. At first it seemed like it was going to be deja vu from last years visit, as soon as we got there it started to rain. We decided to walk down to the beach anyway, in hopes the rain would pass, which it did. We did all the normal fun stuff, playing in the ocean (far enough out to make Scott mad) and in the sand (getting it in all those "lovely" places), hitting the boardwalk (briefly), and eating a pizza that, for the price, should have been gold plated. At the end of the day we let the kids go on a couple rides, got some ice cream (again, gold plated price) and went home. We got in the car to head home around 10pm, at which point Christian was being quite the nutcase, and went from hysterically laughing in the back seat to fast asleep within 45 seconds. Obviously the sign of a good day.

Last Thursday, the 25th, we took the kids to the St. Mikes fair. Boy, does a fair bring out the weirdos... oops, sorry, went off course there. haha. Seriously though, I love fairs. Even more so, I love bringing my kids to the fairs. I just love to see them have a great time. We went there w/ Scott the kids, me and Allie, Aunt Rachel, Uncle Boo-Boo and J.T., and we met up with Aunt Chelsea and Baby Ow. Even Pop-pop and Mom-mom made their way up there. The kids were, not surprisingly, well behaved for the most part. I actually wanted to yell all the older kids at one point, but only because they weren't running wild through the fair. They seemed a bit too calm, I rather enjoy the over excitement and energy. Christian was super cute, at the end of the night when we were waiting for Courtney and Ryan to finish on their big kids rides, he went on this one ride 6 times in a row. It was a car ride that went around in circles and would go up in the air and drop down. He loved it so much, I think I might get it for him for his birthday. Although we had specified on the ride there that we would NOT be playing the fish game, Christian ending u
p coming home with one, courtesy of Aunt Rachel. But he loves it, and named it Itty, so it's fine.
