Domincan Republic











We spent the first week of August with Tutu Phil, Tutu Gail, and Tracy in the Dominican Republic. It was a hot and humid week, but we stayed cool by swimming in the pools and ocean! We had a good time. Enjoy the pictures!

NJ Trip!

Sesame Place











NJ Shore






Please Touch Museum









We spent this past week in PA and NJ. We started out the trip by going to the Please Touch Museum in Philadelphia. The kids had a great time. The highlight of the museum was the music room. It was a new part since the last time we had visited. There was piano on the floor like in the movie "Big". Sean had fun running up and down on it. The next day we took the kids to Sesame Place in Langhorn, PA. The kids really enjoyed it. We saw Elmo's World Live show. Sarah was picked in the audience to pretend she was a fish with Elmo. The kids both loved the show. Sarah went on a roller coaster for the first time and loved it. She went on the roller coaster twice. Also she went down a big water slide with Mark and Aunt Tracy which she also enjoyed. The highlight for Sean was meeting Elmo for the first time in person and playing on mats with big blocks under a pavilion. He also enjoyed the mini wave pool that they had at the park. After Sesame Place, we headed to the NJ shore for the week. Every other day we had rain and every other day we had sun. On the sunny days we spent it on the beach. Both kids loved playing in the sand and water. Sarah met a new friend named Gianna. On one of the rainy days we headed to Great Adventure Theme Park drive through Safari. Both kids enjoyed seeing the animals. On the second rainy day we headed to the Seaside Heights Boardwalk where we ate pizza and played games. Both kids enjoyed the boardwalk! We had a great time on our trip!
