Welcome Home, Daniel!

Daniel went off on a trip to Aunt Whoop's house this summer! She and Anika and Nadeem took him all over the place down by Hampton, VA. He was looking at dinosaurs and sea turtles in a museum one day, then playing badminton and catching jellyfish on the beach the next. All the while, I was back at home wondering how old/young this kid will be before he gets a passport... He jumped at the opportunity to go with Wendy and didn't look back!

I was kindly informed, though, that upon his arrival he was expecting some sort of party. Perhaps cake and a pizza? Well, how could I resist a celebration? My Danny Boy was back!

Tom was busy while we were gone, but still had time to build this for mudroom! :)

Covered Bridge Heaven

We were in covered bridge heaven. Sigh. :)

Kids with Abraham Lincoln in Gettysburg

The three older kids sat on a bench with a statue of Honest Abe at the Gettysburg National Park Visitor's Center.

The Battle of Gettysburg, standing on Little Round Top and pointing down at Devil's Den.

Dylan's masterpiece

Dylan worked on this for a LONG time yesterday, and is still adding and adjusting certain aspects as I type.  It's really quite a display.  Here a just a couple pictures:

Lincoln Logs + Army Guys = FUN
