We never put up a post about our vacation last month, so here we go. We'll go quick:


Went to the lake

Hung out in the hammock.

Too heavy....

Hit the road for DC: the passengers

The driver

The navigator

Chicago

Indiana

Ohio. Lets never go there again.

Missed Pennsylvania. Here is West Virginia.

Got to Nana and Grandpas (no, we are not related to lobsters, we just ate some and posed them in suggestive positions.)

Hanging with Grandpa.

Dinner with Nana, Gigi, and Grandpa

At the zoo with Gigi

Nice stripes

Met more friends

Pretty exhausted, and there are still three weeks of vacation left!

On to North Carolina. We did stay in Virginia for a night. I was so much fun we forgot to take any pictures, it seems.

And finally to Avon

The view from our beach house

Our favorite thing was to dig holes and get buried in them

This was about as close to the water as we wanted to go.

Got attacked by birds.

Dug some more with mama

And with Uncle J

After a week at the beach, went to Raleigh and played with Meredith

Meredith and her mom

Back in the car....

I see some mountains!!!!

There they are. Hot Springs, NC.

Nice view.

Our cabin.

The blackberries at the farm where we stayed

Mmmmm.....

Walked the width of the Appalachian trail

Hid in the corn

Some more nice views


Mom and dad

Gotta keep moving on.

Nashville

St. Louis to see Uncle Luke



Saw the city museum. Pretty crazy.

First ball pit.

More museum

Saw the arch. Its not actually very big.

After a long drive, back into Minnesota.

And home...whew!




This is our last day of being 2 years old. The celebration has begun and we are really excited to see our Nana, Grandpa, Papa, Grandma, Aunt Ann, Uncle Dan! Last night our Bea came over with a surprise for us.......three new snails!!!
Marigny, Bea, Lucy

Sparkle Shoe Blogging!!

Our Mom took us to Target yesterday to buy rainboots. "Wonder Twin powers, activate!" is all it took and we got new sparkle shoes instead.

Boot Blogging!!

What can we say, we follow in the bootprints of the biggest shoe lovers around, Mama and Great Aunt Karen! We'll have to start saving our dough so we can buy our first pair of cowgirl boots the next time we swing through Nashville.
Marigny, Lucy, and lots of boots
