Another Year Older....

This year to celebrate my birthday, I got the opportunity to go home for a few days and visit with family!!  It was a wonderful visit: lots of great food, good fun, and HEAT!!!!




Someone was all set and ready to go the night before ;)... rolling her around her penguin suitcase!


Thank goodness for Violet on the car ride- Harper LOVES her and she's kinda like a make-shift babysitter... her paws are filled with MANY activities!!!


Harper used her blanket to help "turn out the lights" at bedtime- ha!


Nana gave a great gift for a child who loves to pack things, and unpack things, and pack things, and unpack things... oh yes- it is CONSTANT- the shopping cart has been a dream!


Little snuggle time with Aunt Abby :)


Pete's first attempt at the tightrope... yes, it is touching the ground- ha!  In his defense, it was happening to all the guys- little readjustment and it was good to go!


Baby was a HOT.... Aunt Anna came to the rescue with a cool washcloth and headband- hehe


Mom risking the tight rope!!


A visit from her God Mother!  Thank you, Kessha for making the drive with Kohen!!!  We SO appreciate it!!!


The kids were PRECIOUS!!!!!



Oh yes... in this heat we were NEVER far from the pool!!!


My little animal lover ;)... Loved feeding the horses with Nana


Swinging with Nana and Uncle Aaron





More fun in the pool!!


Yaaaaa for a trip to Cambridge City :).... relaxing day of yummy food, fun in the sun, and a GREAT time with wonderful people :)


someone had TOO much fun in the sun!



Love you, Grandpa!

A fun day at The Creamery Farm!!



Happy 18th Birthday, Lil Sis!!!!


The child won't go NEAR her sunglasses :(, but leave it to Uncle Aaron to let her wear his Ray Ban's to make sunglass wearing more desirable- ha!  I think this baby has expensive taste- oh this is going to be a long 18 years ;).


An attempt at a birthday train ride to dinner.... up until we learned that the AC was broken- on a 104 degree day?!?!?!  Ya, we decided to take a raincheck and do dinner indoors- but we took a pic for keepsake purposes!


YAAAAAA FOR THE BIRTHDAY GIRL!!!!  So, glad we could be a part of celebrating with Anna!

THANK YOU, EVERYONE for a wonderful birthday week!  I love you all soooooo much and as always I cannot wait for another visit!!
