I know I said that I would post more pics after I visited my family on vacation, but being the slacker that I am - I still haven't gotten around to it. Until now!! We really did have a great time visiting my family!
As a short narrative to the pictures - here is our vacation in a nutshell:
We got on the road early for the LONG (12 hour) drive, but my Munchkin brought along his distraction - which helped pass the time (for him anyways). We got to our destination and I got to meet my new niece for the first time! Such a cutie!!! We took my Grandmother out for an early breakfast one morning so she got a chance to be with both of her GREAT-Grandkids at the same time! Then we made another short trip up to the cabin where we went for walks and fed the fish in the pond. We got to play with Papa's toy too!! We finally got all of the cousins together for the first time since the baby was born. I had such a good time. I just wished that we all lived closer together and could do this more often.
That was the vacation part of the summer (one week in June).
July was spent at home. My Munchkin got to spend time with his friends and goof off just like kids are supposed to. I worked as usual. I would love to have summers and holidays off again like I did as a child.
August was spent (so far) pretty much the same way. Not much happening this month.
Now it is time for back to school, and fall. Here, though, our "Fall" doesn't mean cooler temperatures until mid-October usually.
The after that - comes winter and the new baby!!!! We are working on getting ready for that!
and that's all - for now...
