Hanging with the sea creatures....

This past weekend, we went to Cincinnati to the Newport Aquarium and had a great time. This is Buzz and the kids in front of the jellyfish tank. It was really weird because these ones had the legs above them...
This is the kids by the Ohio river. The baseball and football fields were behind them in Ohio. Don't they look like they love one another!!

This was Corey's favorite exhibit. He got to pet the sharks. He could have spent hours here. You had to be careful and make sure their eyes were behind you and no other ones were coming. Buzz almost got bit by one!! Got to be quick!!


The jellyfish were SK's favorite. You could change the colors of the tank so it looked like the fish themselves were changing colors! Very cool!!
It was a great weekend and we enjoyed being together and laughing and checking out all that Newport and Cincy had to offer!!

Happy 4th....

Well friends, another 4th has come and gone. it amazes me that the year is half over and before you know it, we will be looking at holiday lights. We went to target the other day and SK bought her backpack for school. I cannot believe how fast life goes by.

We had a very relaxing 4th. We hung out with the kids all morning..cleaned..I beat Buzz in a game of Rummicube and then Stacie and Nick came over for the evening. Jay stopped by for a litle while and it is always laughs when he is around. The kids did fireworks and we ate a super good BarBQ!

The weather was crappy this year and we took out chairs downtown and watched the fireworks. The kids did their normal DQ run and enjoyed that. it is fun to hang out with friends..enjoy your family..and have downtime on the weekend. Buzz and Corey got up this morning and went golfing. I love it that Corey is into it because he and his dad really share alot these days...and Corey can actually hit the ball well.

I enjoyed this holiday..the next one we will be camping with the Fields!! Who only knows what that will bring!!! good times!!! I am sure......
