Carolina Beach with the Watsons

We spent the week at Carolina Beach with Jay's Parents, Sister and her friend Erin. Everyone had a blast hanging out at the beach, the pool, and doing fun things in the house like playing games and doing puzzles. One day Jay and I took the boys to the Aquarium and then stopped at Fort Fischer on the way back. It was so different at the Aquarium with Jack this year as opposed to last year...he was really into looking at all the different fish and animals. We celebrated the 4th of July at the beach with Jay's Aunt Jill and her 2 girls Emily and Lucy and Emily's Friend. We hung out by the pool and finished the evening off with homemade ice cream while watching the fire works!! It was a great week away and not having to worry about work or anything and just enjoying ourselves. Jack was a daredevil in the ocean and wanted to be out deep with the big guys. He has gotten so brave in the pool and just swims around on his own most of the time with an adult nearby!

Bowling Playdate

With AMF bowling have Kids Bowl for free when u pay for Shoe Rentals we decided for playgroup to check it out. We weren't sure what to expect with a bunch of toddlers and bowling but it was quite entertaining to say the least. They seemed to enjoy it but they weren't too fond of the waiting till it was their turn so luckily we split into 2 lanes so the wait time was shorter.

Jonathan's Highschool Graduation & Party

Uncle Jonathan(ashley's brother) graduated from Sanderson High school so we had dinner appetizers the night of the graduation just as a small family to celebrate after the ceremony.

Jack had a blast seeing all the family and Jonathan's friends who he knows a lot of esp. the church ones!! I think everyone had a great day and I'm so proud of Jonathan's Accomplishments!

Liam's 3rd Birthday Party at Hill Ridge Farms

Jack's Friend Liam celebrated his 3rd birthday with a really fun part at Hill Ridge Farms. Jack had a blast at the party riding in the red caboose on the train, taking a hay ride, having pizza and cake and then playing on the giant slide, in the corn box (like a sandbox but with corn kernels) and checking out the animals. He crashed on the way home after a fun day!
