Josh 4th Bday Pool Party!

Josh will celebrate his 4th birthday when we are at the beach on Monday so we had a pool party for him yesterday! We invited some of his friends and we also had the Pickels and Nolans!  It turned out to be a big party with about 34 people!!  Josh loved every second of it!  It was a Spiderman theme so we had everything from plates and napkins to his cake as Spiderman.  He was so excited and had a blast! Tomorrow we leave for the beach and we can not wait!!  We will have another small celebration there for his real birthday on the 24th!  Lots of celebrations for my little guy!!

Busch Gardens and Meme's Birthday!

On Saturday we had a great time at Busch Gardens with the McGuires.  We went later in the afternoon and stayed until 9PM.  We had a blast!  The kids are getting older and all we go on are the bigger rides so it's so much fun!  I hope to get one more trip in before school starts and after the beach!

On Sunday, Meme celebrated her 83rd birthday!  I was working so Kelly took these great pics at the party!  Happy Birthday Meme!!

Water Country USA!

Kelly and I made our annual Water Country trip this past Thursday.  The Meehans also came along for the fun!  It was an exhausting day but we had a blast.  The kids are getting older so we can go on more fun rides.  It was a LONG day but we had a fun time together!  See ya next year Water Country!
Here are some random pics of us at the pool last week!  We had a fun playdate with the Mayers and got an autograph from Townley Haas who will hopefully be going to the next summer Olympics for swimming!

Cora got to meet Townley Haas, the next Olympian!

Lunch at the pool with the McGuire's and Mayers!

Swimming is more fun in the rain:)

Swim Team Awards!

Last week we went to Church Run's swim team award ceremony at Christ's Church.  Cora was so excited to get her trophy!  She did just an awesome job this summer and really put her heart into it. She never missed a practice and always worked her hardest.  Only 20 swimmers or so get the 110% award on the team.  We are so proud that Cora was one of those swimmers!! Madelyn also got the award..so exciting!  They both got a medal for this award and they were so cute standing there with all of these older swimmers.  They should be so proud of themselves! Words can not describe how proud I am of her.  She had an awesome swim team year and we can't wait for another season next year!

So proud of these girls!

Loved her little trophy
