Weekend at Brenden's

We had a great time boating with Brenden and his parents! Sunday morning Colby stayed with Aunt Kari and Uncle Eric while Mom, Dad and Connor went golfing! We finished our weekend with a nice lunch on the water and a stoll along the rocks!!

Playdate with Ms. Alyssa!!

While we were at the lakehouse, we missed Ms. Alyssa's fifth birthday party so we decided to have a playdate and our own party!! The guests in attendance were Alyssa, Connor and Daegan. Laney, Colby, Michele and Amy were there as well! While we had intended to spend the day poolside, the weather was less than agreeable. But, nonetheless we had a fun day together and can't wait to do it again soon!!

Princess Alyssa sporting the birthday hat Michele made. I can't wait to see the one she makes for Ray's birthday! :~)

Lunch at the less than famous "McDonald's". Chips and fruit were used to compliment the PB&J main course.

Alyssa opening her gifts. Good girl - she knew to open the cards first :~)

Big Smile!

School clothes - Yuck! But the game looks fun!!!

Three silly monkeys!

The cutest totem pole ever!!

Pyramids!!

Everyone got a turn!

This pyramid was a bit top heavy! But, everyone was determined!

The infamous "nap".....see Angie - all eyes are open, no blankets and plenty of light!

Okay - so there is a blanket!

Arts and crafts on a minutes time. Making monsters out of macaroni after having heard "Another Monster at the End of this Book! Brilliant idea really.

Off to start planning the next playdate!!!

The Mc and Mo Vacation Show!!

This year, the McDonald and the Morrissey families rented a lakehouse in Wakefield, NH for two weeks. We had a blast! Many friends and family came to visit us. We enjoyed swimming, jet skiing, playing in the sand and visiting the McDonald playplace on rainy days. Delaney celebrated her 13th birthday at the lake as well!!

Colby knocked over the bucket and made a river through the tunnel - it was soo much fun!

Connor's idea of fun was pouring water down the front of his pants!! This will be great for the wedding day!

Geeg and Nice came up for a day. Geeg was fun in the water - she helped Connor "surf".

Nice played Lifeguard.
