Back Home

The flight back to Spokane was a little trying at times, but not too bad. There was a lot of walking up and down the aisles. We are home now, the kids miss the extra attention, but they also seem happy to be back with all their toys. Now we prepare for our next adventure.

Time to leave

Unfortunately, after two weeks of fun and visiting we had to leave. All in all, the trip was a great time. The kids were able to spend lots of time with Grandma, Albie and Uncle Chris. We will have these memories forever.

The Cape

We spent a week of our vacation out East in Orleans on Cape Cod. We had so much fun, that the time flew by. We went to the beach several times, played mini golf, went to the ZooQuarium, took a boat ride, rode a trolley, among other things. Skaket Beach was great for the kids. The beach takes two forms depending on the tides. At high tide the water is a good depth to splash and look for crabs. At low tide you can walk out half a mile through tidal pools. Of course the kids enjoyed playing in the sand the most.
Sadly while on the trip, we got news that Papa Gizmo fell off a ladder. He cut his lip and broke a rib, but is doing fine now.

Jack Jack

In case you are wondering, Jack is not being raised as a vegetarian. Jack took his first steps while visiting Grandma and Albie. He can only take a couple steps before falling, but he is learning. He has also learned several words such as: car, cracker, ice, hi, bear, blue bear, ball, daddy, mommy, Albie, uncle, up, pizza, this, thank you, please, cheers, more, book, and all done.

East Coast Vacation part I

We had a great time out East this year. The kids had a lot of fun with Grandma, Albie, Chris and the many others who came to see the kids. It was great to see Jen and Lee for the first time since their wedding last year. We went on the carousel in Hartford. The kids had a great time at JumpZone.
