bonus pictures from cape cod in some sort of random order

Alex had swim lessons at Oyster pond with the lifeguards over the summer- two week sessions- at the end of the two weeks they would have a party. Tug of war was one of the games- Alex likes to talk about the very strong kids who could pull over the lifeguards...

Chatham Band concert- of course!

(that's Allan in the back)

"Light sticks"

Alex's birthday party at the cape- with his friend Alden from NCRC. Alden and his family spend their summers on the cape so we enjoyed getting together with them!

Rory wanted to take swimming- she would want to do everything Alex and his class did- here she is kicking in the water. Now she likes to lie down in the tub, kick her feet and say, "I swimming"

Reading with grandma Jill

Alex and Rory made drippy castles together (funnel courtesy of Tamra and Tess who showed us how to use the funnel to make drippy castles last summer!)

Lifeguarding at Nauset Beach... hey- where's your whistle?

Heading to the sailboat

Hey, look! A picture of someone that is not our kid(s)! In this case, it's Paul:

Outer Bar

Fun craft with cousin Debbie- everyone painted and decorated wooden fish. Here they are after drying. Alex and Rory STILL love their wooden fish and play with them.

Band Night!
