A Fun Family Weekend

Matt & I decided it would be a great weekend to get some family time is, as the next 3 we will all be different places :(!

So Saturday we headed over to Children's First Day. K seemed to enjoy it for the most part! It is a very busy place and LOTS to see! She got her first tatoo sitting on this blow up crown chair!
Not sure she knew exactly what was going on...but seemed to have a pretty good time there! Maybe next year she will be more into all they offer there!

Sunday afternoon we went to a friend's horse farm to visit and let the kids ride! What a beautiful day! I think all the kids got to ride and enjoyed it!

K didn't make it for a ride yet, but she did manage to get on and sit or a minute with her daddy.... maybe next time she'll go for a ride!

the girls... just playing on the farm! ;)

Family Visits

Matt's family was able to visit us throughout the summer. It was so nice to have them come to us and cut back on our travelling! :) His Mom and Dad and youngest sister and her family made in for a weekend in July. His Oldest Brother and his family made it for a weekend in August and then his Oldest Sister and her family made it for a weekend in August as well.
I'm noticing I really need to take more pictures... i'm getting lazy about it... But, here are a few from the weekends we shared.
Tyler and K trying to figure out how to 'un-crash' the bubble car... they LOVED playing with this car together... so cute!

K and her cousin Ashley... this is about the best picture I got of the two of them, out of like taking a dozen or so! ;) Those little girls m-o-v-e around quickly!

Matt and two of his nephews sporting the Elway jerseys! Matt was soooo impressed they BOTH had Elway jerseys to wear now!

ahhhhh.... the bubble car... all to myself! :)

Nags Head Weekend

Seems like just this past weekend I was in Nags Head with my Brother and Sister...but it must of been like 3 weeks ago now...
Anyways... K and I headed to the beach with my sister and her clan for the weekend. (Matt and his brother were playing in a 2 day golf tournament, so i wouldn't have seen him much anyways... it wasn't like i just abanoneded him or anything- for the record).

It was a great laid back weekend! Just lots of catching up and hanging low. My brother lives on the sound in Kill Devil Hills, back in Colington for those of you who are familiar. So the private beach back there is pretty much always empty....

My two nieces spending the afternoon on the Sound Side Beach.

The girls are totally into paddling now! They are really quite good at it too. It's a bonus that one of the kayaks is pink and one is blue... just perfect for the girls and their favorite colors!

K and her Uncle Mitch just after bath time! She really took to her Uncle Mitch! She would reach for him and want him to hold her! I was glad to see her take to him so quickly and enjoy him... and her Aunt Lyne too... they even babysat for me/ her so i could go run around a bit... what a treat! We had a great weekend visiting and catching up.
