Dunked in the Bay...Twice

Finishing off last Saturday.  Ariel found another friend from camp at the shore.  Cecelia.  She lives in Center City Philly but has a shore house right near us.  Ariel calls her CC.  She came over to swim.  

We took the boys to the bay to watch the sunset.  
So pretty!

The fish were jumping out the water.  



I took Ariel and CC to Dairy Bar and of course CC slept over.  
Last Sunday, we had a slow, quiet morning.  
Eli was excited to get started on his ferris wheel lego.  


Ariel did some tumbling for us.  
Then I took Aden and Ariel out on the waverunner.  We met up with Dave and Margot.  

And we are off!
We had fun till it got a little rocky and Aden got unsteady and pushed me to keep himself on and I fell off!
That's me in the water.  
I'm good!
So right after I got back on, it happened again!
We had fun!
Margot came to sit.  The boys, of course, made a fort.  


Amy and I and the two older ones went to Steve and Cookies for dinner.  The kids had never been there before.  It was Team Pink vs. Team Blue.  I think Team Pink won for style!
Dinner was awesome!  We were going to drive home in the morning but they were calling for torrential rain so we went back, packed then drove home.  On the way, I drove over a nail and the pressure started to decrease on one of the tires.  We made it most of the way home before I stopped to refill it.  We thankfully made it home.

Sugar Factory

It's Sunday night.  The first day of school is tomorrow!  That came fast.  So hard to believe.  We had a quiet weekend at the shore but came back early to get the kids ready.  

Last Saturday, Melissa and I went for a 2 1/2 mile run and we didn't stop!  She can't stop or she can't get started again. It's fun to run with someone.  I'm usually by myself.  
We took the kids to the Margate water park.  
We didn't last long.  
They jumped on the trampoline.  



But everything else was too hard and the kids kept falling in the bay.  The twins do not want to fall in the bay.  









Mark made a big jump.

 It was kind of a waste of money.  
Then we all went to the Hard Rock Casino for lunch.  

It was nice to be back.
The Sugar Factory!
We looked outside while we waited for our table.  More rides for the kids!
The drinks and sweets were amazing there.  

This non alcoholic drink was like $42!
Milkshakes!


Look at this milkshake!


Of course Ariel took it from me.  
We should have expected this.  

The boys wore gloves.  Cute.  

Saturday to be continued.
