Fun in the backyard -

Luke has always loved animals. This summer he has spent HOURS in the backyard creating habitats for his various (plastic) animals. He makes forests, rain forests, lakes, creeks, mud pits, you name it. He loves it. He will stay out there for hours if you let him, getting good and dirty.
This is just one of his creations. As you can see, he couldn't wait to change into his clothes for the day, he is out there first thing in the morning.

FRR 2011 -

We made it down to Falmouth for the road race. Daddy ran this year, along with Chrissie, Kel and Scott. They all did great. The weather was perfect for the runners and watchers! Bette and I took the kids down to watch. Loved seeing daddy run :)

Logging More Beach Days...

We've been trying to get to the beach as much as possible this summer. So much so that they kids are a little beached out at this point in the summer. It has been a great summer, weather wise. Lots of beach days. The kids favorite activity on the beach is waiting for the ice cream truck to come. They love it. Kids run out of the water faster than if someone yelled "SHARK!".
