Chesapeake

We had the chance to go over to Chesapeake for a long weekend and had a great time watching the kids play, going to Busch Gardens (post to come), spending time together and helping mom celebrate her birthday! I think we got in the pool a few times, but the weather didn't cooperate very well. It wasn't cold, but it wasn't hot, so the water was only 84 degrees, and that is just not acceptable for us adults!

Look! All three kids sitting-at one time-in the same place! So glad we got this picture! I know I'm a little biased, but they are the cutest kids I think I've ever seen.

Alli and Rachel with their matching Build-a-Bears! I'm sure they were talking about something, just not sure what.

These two had so much fun with each other! They hid under blankets, pushed each other on a fire truck riding toy, but my favorite memory we didn't see right away. All the adults were downstairs and we noticed that the kids weren't around. We did hear the biggest belly laughs coming from the monitor that was in Rachel's room though. They had snuck upstairs and I'm not even sure what they were doing, but they were having a great time! Makes me smile just thinking about it. :)

Love this little one's smile!

Rachel was trying to find a bow to put in Poppy's hair!

Like Mother, Like Daughter

Everyone has recently gotten smart phones... still trying to figure all the apps out- or maybe they were playing games- or checking the weather- or planning bike routes!

I love that we were able to be there for Mom's birthday. I think she was happy, too!

Helping Mimi blow out her candles. Good thing we all love the kids and didn't mind the fact that the kids had a little "extra" with their air!

Sharing Cheerios!
