On Our Way


This girl has been on my bucket list of things to see for quite some time. We're going to get on a cruise ship with all my siblings, their spouses and my mom and step-dad in just a few minutes. We'll see several spots on our way up to Quebec and then back to NYC. Hopefully the leaves will still be beautiful! No housecleaning, no cooking, no work for 2 weeks. Awesome.

Caleb's Turn

Earlier this summer I took Agnes to Jungle Jim's, so I thought Caleb might enjoy it as well. When we first arrived, there were several people about to ride the roller coaster. Caleb loved the roller coaster at the L.A. County Fair in CA. so I didn't think he'd have a problem with this one. I was wrong. He hated it and started crying. Here he is before the ride started.
It was a little tough to convince him that he was going to have fun after that first ride, but we stuck him on the airplane anyway. Look at this face with a look of "Why are you making me do this?"
This is why we're making you do this! Because it's fun and you'll like it!
After that, he was loving everything.

He REALLY loved the carousel. In fact, he rode it about four or five times non-stop. He just kept saying "I want to go again!" We just left him on the horse and asked the girl to send him around again.
He also went several times on the bumper cars. He needed a co-pilot though because his feet couldn't reach the pedal. Here's Mommy's turn...
Here's Nana's turn (it's not easy getting in or out of those things!)
Eventually, he went back to the roller coaster and tried it again because his daddy went with him. He liked it that time.

I think he had a pretty good time after all.

Cute Kids

Two weeks ago I drove to CA to visit some little angel babies. Let's start with this one!
Three little monkeys jumping on the bed. They had fun!
Then we went to the park...




We came back to the hotel to just put our feet in the swimming pool, but Nora slipped and fell in with all her clothes on! So after she was soaking wet, she changed into her swim suit. They're eating popcorn in my hotel room here.


The following day was Mia's blessing. I'll post that soon!
P.S. Marlene, I don't have your email address.
