A New School Year is Upon Us!

Second Grade for Bobby - Here's how his day started...

Breakfast to fill his belly (ok, it's a Pop Tart, but the milk is real!)





















He's on his way...









The obligatory "In Front of the Building" picture!
















And signing in at Latchkey. After that, I couldn't keep track of which friends he was talking to - and he waved me on my way.
Hmmm.

'Twas the night before Second Grade....

Bobby is entering Second Grade this year, and he couldn't be more excited!!! After a power shower, tooth brushing (even the loose one!) and hug for Snoopy, he's all ready for a good night's sleep.

Last Trip to the Beach

We had one last "hurrah" before school started and took a day at the beach with Aunt Karen and John. The weather wasn't that good, but the boys had fun regardless.

And what trip would be complete without the corny pictures at the boardwalk...?

Swimming at Aunt Nita's

We made our annual swimming visit at Aunt Nita's right before school started, and boy, what fun! Both boys had a ball and Bobby ventured up onto the diving board all by himself! He's becoming quite the little daredevil!

To the Beach Again!!!

We just can't stay away! This time we headed to Seaside with the Wilsons - and had another amazing week!

Bobby and Grandmom both with full bellies after dinner one night - seafood - mmmmmm good!Bobby and his cousin Danny on their way to the boardwalk....

Of course, the rides again!

Motorcycle Baby?

Should Mommy be worried? Not really, Bobby's just getting a feel for it, and Mr. Jim has offered Bobby a ride when he gets MUCH bigger.....

A Week at the Beach!

This year Bobby, Mommy and Mr. Jim took off for a whole week to go to the beach! We've never done that before, and it was well worth it! Most of the time we just relaxed - read books (Mommy read 2!), went to the beach, fished, went out to eat, and just plain hung out. It was the vacation we all needed. We did do some sightseeing in neighboring towns...

Believe it or not, Bobby's a pretty good miniature golfer! He got really close alot of times and actually got a hole in one!

Bobby tried his hand at boogie boarding - and really got the hang of it! He looks like a pro already!

We spent quite a bit of time practicing our fishing skills - ok, mainly casting. Bobby did great! He's a real natural!

Of course, it wouldn't be a trip to the beach without a morning at the boardwalk! Bobby got a wristband for unlimited riding power and surely got his money's worth!

We had amazing weather all week - and plenty of wind for some kite-flying!

We can't wait to go back next year!
