2nd Grade!

Wow, time - please slow down!!!! Can't believe our baby is starting 2nd grade already! We had another great 1st day. Mama made cookie cake for the bus stop.

 Love how Gia is looking at Jack here....melts my heart.

OBX 2014!

We took our Biennial (look it up, I did :) trip to the Outer Banks with the Mansolillo/McNeece and new this year, Barley families! It was an overall great trip....the weather couldn't have been more perfect!

Jack and Gia both LOVE the water. We couldn't keep them out.  Jack's pal from school Blake and his family were in the OBX so they came to play on the beach one day. All we did was beach, pool, eat, movies, repeat. It was great!

We left at 0430, this was Gia when she woke up at 0730....looks kinda like a purple minion, doesn't she? lol
