Tourist in my own Home Town

Derrick's aunt and soon to be uncle came to visit us back in July. It was really fun to take the time to do some of the things that we take for granted. We spent one day walking around one of the smaller towns around here and then spent one afternoon in the Stockyards. I had the brilliant idea that we would go watch a cattle drive...I believe that the term was used rather loosely to describe some longhorns who were very "over it" saunterning down the road led by some equally "over it" cowboys.



Waiting for the "Cattle Drive"

Real life tourists! Apparently this doesn't happen often in New Jersey!

So "over it"

But not over this! Thank you Joe T's for some wonderful atmosphere!

We've Been Busy

Oh summer. There are no schedules, no set activities and long, HOT days. Here is a litte peek into some of the happenings of summer!


Impromtu swimming with Aunt J

Hours (and I do mean hours) of fun in a diaper box

Splashing in puddles (a rarity this summer)

and just flat out being silly!

Perhaps the Drought is Over

I haven't posted in a while. A lot has been going on, but I haven't felt like I had much to say. I read this today and wanted to share it. Sometimes it is nice to know other people struggle with the same things you do!
