Spent the evening at Charlotte celebrating Uncle Scott's birthday! Margaret and Elle enjoyed collecting shells and sea glass. Abby enjoyed munching chicken nuggets coated in sand. Craig and Carter made castles and swam and a good time was had by all- followed by ice cream cake and another dip in the pool when we got back to Scott's!
Margaret and Elyse spent a special day at the Strong National Museum of Play. Abby, Grandma Mac and I tagged along. They had a great time with the Berenstain Bears, Clifford and the characters from Sesame Street. They also enjoyed the "Wegman's" grocery store, where they can select food and check it out at a miniture cash register. But the big hit of the day was "history place" room where they played old-fashioned dress up and worked in the kitchen.
We stayed for several nights at Uncle Scott's house too. The kids had a great time playing on the trampoline and swimming in the pool. They also enjoyed sleeping in Carter and Elle's room and having time to hang out, ride bikes, eat pizza and popsicles and just playing, playing, playing! Craig taught Abby how to say "no" more effectively! Thanks Uncle Scott and Aunt Michele for being such wonderful hosts and putting up with three extra kids!
