Long weekend!!

Happy Memorial Day! We just looove long weekends in our house! Mark doesn't get them all off, but when he does it's like a vacation!! So this weekend we saw that the weather was supposed to be beautiful: hot and sunny, but a tad cooler on the coast. So to the Cape house we went. With the kids. For two nights!! When it was just Cameron we would go down almost every weekend in the summer with no problems. But we definitely weren't sure how it would be with both kids, one just 16 weeks, the other a spazy 2 year old. But you have to try it out!

When we got down on Saturday realized we had the whole upstairs, so that helped our anxiety of keeping family or guests awake all night if things didn't go well! But they did! They both slept perfectly, thank goodness! While we were hanging out at the house on Saturday Avery started doing the best belly laughs!! I just about died at how cute she looked and sounded! That kid can't get any more adorable!


Sunday, we had blueberry pancakes on the patio while we waited for the overcast weather to burn off. It never did! But our friends came down with their girls anyway! We were going to take a little bit of a ride to go to this kid friendly board walk a few towns over, but decided against it because the weather was a bit of a gamble. Wouldn't you know that the weather was perfect everywhere else on the Cape but where we were! Oh well, there was no rain and fairly warm so we still got the boat in the water and brought the kids down to the dock to take a try at fishing. HA! Lesson 1: two year olds don't fish. Lesson 2: never show the said two year olds a huge black crab with scary claws. Ever. There will be screaming.

They were screaming here, you just can't tell!

On Sunday, the weather started out the same, but was beautiful by noon. My sisters and there family's came over, along with one of my brothers. We had fun!! Everyone went out on the boat, except for me and Avery, and did a little fishing. Some how Cameron fell asleep 10 minutes into the ride and ending up sleeping in the cabin the whole time. After, he did a little toddler swimming, or accidentally falling in up to his neck while reaching for a rock to skip. Oh well, he loved it! And so did we! So we had a great weekend, overcast weather and all. I loved being away from the worries of the house and the dog. Didn't even touch my computer or cell phone the whole time. It was a family of four success!!
