The Jersey Shore!

Thanks to Joe's parents we were able to get away on vacation at the Jersey shore. The whole family was there and it was a great time. Thanks to grandma and grandpa for Sam's beach chair, there are a million pictures of him in it because he just looks so darn cute! Aunt Karen gets lots of smiles from Sammy, he's a little flirt. I got plenty of beach time, thanks to grandma who was willing to occupy Sam, who didn't get to go down to the beach. It was either too hot or too windy for our little man. That didn't stop Sammy from sporting his many bathing suits, I couldn't help myself, he looked adorable. We look forward to going down to the shore again next year.

Chicken Barbeque!!

Thankfully we were able to attend the annual family chicken barbeque on my father's side. We were so excited for everyone to meet Sam. Sam just turned 11 weeks on the day of the chicken barbeque, so I did have my hands full that day....and therefore did not get any photos of Sam with the family other than with his cousins!! So much for the tradition of getting pictures of each family....we'll have to remember next year. Taylor and Jacob just love their cousin "baby Sammy", as they call him, and do a great job entertaining him. We had a nice time at the barbeque and it was great to see the family!
