Rides with Margot

Last Monday we got a surprise.  Harper has her phone at camp for bat mitzvah lessons.  The girls were able to text me and send a picture!

I ran some errands and ran into an old friend Adam.  There was a time I would see him often when I was living in the city.  

Then I ran into Melissa, Stef and Lauren and a cute dog.  

It was nice to catch up with the girls.  

Aden had 3 friends with him all week.  They did not bother us but they came in late every night making it hard for us to sleep.  They had fun.

Amy and I and the twins ran some errands.  Eli wanted flags for the 4th.  

We had lunch at the taco place.  

Junior's Doughnuts is back!  I'm so excited!

We looked at bikes.  

Then we went for a bike ride.  

We passed by the hot dog place.  I need to try it!

Some fun pics of Ariel.  

This picture was from a few years ago when Margot went with us to Ocean City.  

We took her that night and reenacted the picture!

Amy and I can't go on the rides anymore but Margot loves it.  Of course they had to go on Gale Force first.  Eli has been talking about this coaster all winter.  

There they go!

They are in the middle row.  I love this pic!

Double Shot!

Rope Swings.  

Noah made some sand art.  

Very cool!

Log flume! Look how Eli is hiding behind Margot.  

Pretty sunset that night.  

Another pic of Ariel came in.  She's in the background talking to boys!

 

Bad Golf

Last Sunday, I got up early to play my second round of golf.  7:30 tee time at Hamilton Trials golf club.  I met my neighbor Steve and his cousins Anthony and Vic.  Let's go!  I was a bit nervous.  

I was horrible! I think I was overthinking it.  I had my teacher Matt's voice in my head.  I hit an occaisonal good shot but had many lost balls.  Where do they dissappear to?  

Maybe this chipmunk took them.  

I looked the part at least.  

So after 9, they told us we were going too slow and could not continue.  My friends went nuts and screamed at them.  They play here all the time and felt disrespected.  I was just hoping it wasn't my fault.  I was taking a lot of shots.  Eventually, they refunded us and let us play through.  

It's hard to get action shots.

I ran out of my own balls and used balls I found along the way.  I think this was my best drive.  Over 200 yards right down the middle.  It took like 5 hours to finish the 18 and drive back and forth.  I was exhausted.  

No time for rest when you have a family.  We headed to the beach.  

It was cloudy but warm.

The boys went to work starting on their fortune.  Sadly, they didn't find much.  

Melissa's friends came to say hi.  

Dave and Julia sat with us.  

The boys did well playing and keeping busy.  

Then the pool.  

Some shots from camp.  

Family day.  Ariel with Eva and Gwen and Cece with her sister.
