Cape Cod

At Cape Cod and thoroughly enjoying ourselves! The kids are worn out and I have napped, done a Beth Moore study and still have time to post some pics and write down what we've been up to so I don't forget.

Kate and Grandma snuggling the first night talking about what fun we will have the next day.

 The house we rented is awesome! There was a cancellation, so we got a steal of a deal on an amazing "cottage." All vintage and super cute.

 Going to Chequesset for the first time.

 Father's Day boys shot.

 First time at the beach.

 This little one is a sand monster!

 Wet clothes are not ok. Half-dressed is apparently much better.

 Ditto for this one. Let's say potty-training has derailed.

 Loving the airplane ride.  The special drink was a big highlight for both kids.

 Coloring a picture for Hannah, the girl in front of Katie.  Katie said, "She is going to miss me so much when we get off the plane." (insert Mom eyeroll)

 Zonked after a day of flying and no nap.

 Beach baby

 I was so excited when I found this shirt. Pink, sparkles glitter and it says "Cape Cod Girl" which is a part of a poem we used to say growing up. "Cape Cod girls, they have no combs, they comb their hair with Cod fish bones.  We had t-shirts we made with puffy paint that said that growing up:)

 Another sand monster.  That sand is dropping directly onto his head.

 Fishing with Dad.

 Watching the big boys fish.

 Looking at shells with Grandma.

 S'mores.

It has been so amazing to pass on all the traditions and memories I have from growing up onto my kids.  I remember driving over the Sagamore bridge, finding shells, running down the dunes and roasting s'mores. The kids could not have been better behaved on the trip out.  We had so much luggage and got a lot of hilarious looks.  The kids were so excited to be flying on the plane and were shouting "we're flying!" It felt like we were in a Peter Pan movie.  They listened and played quietly.  Gray napped and slept at all the right times.  We did get totally lost trying to follow our GPS into the cottage.  We ended up driving on a dirt road in someone's driveway and had to stop and ask for help. 

The guys just got back and caught 4 fish...off to hear the tale of adventure!
