MEMORIAL DAY 2008!

"Mom I'm trying to help you pack!"

"Robert, I LOVE your car. Can I borrow it?"

LAZY DAYS!

Fun in the sun!

"Do we really have to wear these hats all day?"

What a weekend! We started out Friday night hanging out with Siobhan, Johnny, John and Liam. We barbecued and had some good laughs. Unfortunately, I forgot the camera, but the kids had a fun time playing together. John is trying to teach Nola about all the different trucks and how to do puzzles.

We woke up early Saturday morning to pack the car for THE SHORE (NJ slang!) Caitlin and Ryan invited us for the weekend to his parent's shore house. The weather was Gorgeous! 75-80 with no humidity. The house was BEAUTIFUL and right on the lagoon. Since the water was dirty and cold, they set up a little kiddie pool for Nola. It was her first time in the pool and she Loved it. We all had such a great time. We even ventured to the boardwalk.
Okay, so I knew I packed the camera, but we couldn't find it anywhere, so we used Caitlin's camera. And of course when we got home Sunday we found our camera in the trunk. HAHA! So we have to wait for Caitlin to send us those pics.

Jay, Nola & I crashed Sunday night so we could wake up early and head to Brian and Dawn's for another BBQ and day in the water. We couldn't have asked for better weather! Jay threw Nola to me in the pool, her first time in a big girl pool, and she didn't really like going under water much. She did love swimming. She kept kicking her legs and she was a little fish. She also LOVED Robert's little car so much that we are heading to Target to get one today. Thanks Liz! All the kids had so much fun playing together and we can't wait to do it again. Maybe it will be at our house next time if we ever fill our pool! And don't worry, I finally made sure I had my camera so you can see Nola!

Luckily I have off one more day so we can catch our breath. Nola is soooo exhausted. She has already been sleeping over an hour and I expect her to take two long naps today so I can get my school work done. Ughhh! Only 3 weeks left...I'm making a chain!
