Summer Outing

Saturday was my company's summer picnic. Avery played in the bouncy house. He had no fear - even with the big kids playing in it! The BBQ was delicious. Avery loved the cows, particularly the group mooing loudly. He sat with the big kids for awhile and watched the juggling show. He decided to cop a squat in this chair... I'm still not sure who it belonged to... but A got in and stayed a long time. He's growing so quickly!

Lawn Mowing Enthusiasm

Avery is quite excited to have his own lawn mower, and quite adamant that his Dad recognizes that Avery has a lawnmower. Think he'll be this enthusiastic about it when he's twelve? 

Pemaquid

We all went camping this week. We found a really nice campground called Sherwood Forest Campsite (click here). We were luck enough to be able to borrow Grammah's tent, which was very nice and very spacious. We spent yesterday relaxing at our shady campsite. Avery was feeling a bit under the weather and was running a fever. We thought he'd snap out of it, but he didn't so we cut our trip short by a day and came home so maybe he could sleep more comfortably. We did see a few sights--checking out the lighthouse at Pemaquid Point and the fort as well. It was extremly hot, though, so we tried to stick to the campsite and stay in the shade. Avery got cooled off with a swim and a few popsicles. It was a nice place and we'll definitely go back.
