Gone Crab'n

On their trip to NY, Owen, Rory and mom got to go crab'n with the Hams out on Long Island.


So, their baskets are in the water, but will there be any crab?


Their cousins Mo Mo and Grace also took part in the festivities. Can you spot Uncle Gus and Aunt Shannon in this pic?


Well look at that, Owen admires his catch.


Mmmmm, crab! Uncle Gus cooked these up and we ate 'em. That was good eats!

Like last year, we attended the annual St. Vincent's Family Picnic at Waldameer Park, courtesy of grandma and grandpa.


There were so many rides. This was Rory's first real trip to an amusement park and she made the best of it.


Here's Luke & Rory with their cousins Morgan & Savannah.


Aunt Susie almost broke a rib riding the roller coaster with Owen.


Not to be outdone, Rory got to ride the same coaster with her dad. (You can't really see her, but she is sitting in the last car.)


As usual, the boys had a great time riding the rides and eating the great food!

Berry Pickin'

After a brief hiatus for time spent @ Children's, we're back with some of the highlights from our very eventful summer.


No trip to the "country" is complete without a trip into the woods to pick berries. And yes, hats are required!


After the "hike" into the wild...


JACKPOT!


Grandma has taught the kids well. Here they're examining the berries.


Of course, the best part is eating their bounty!
