FaNtAsTiC!

Today was very exciting... and we got it all on camera:) Preston invited Daddy to a picnic today during his lunch break. While Mommy was getting the lunch together, Daddy showed Preston the pool and his slide.On a side note... notice Preston's Phillie jersey...courtesy of Breezy:)
Daddy and Preston sitting down to lunch (That is a chip sticking out of Preston's mouth... silly kid)The lil stinker kept eating Daddy's chips instead of his sandwichFinally Preston got what he really wanted... Watermelon... yum (He absolutely loves it)

Sorry... I guess I didn't get it all on camera... because we didn't get any of the pool. But hey... 2 out of 3 ain't bad:)

The Fine Art of BODY SLAMMING!

That's right... Daddy has been teaching Preston to body slam. This has been going on for a while now, but Mommy finally got pictures of the boys in action the other day.

Daddy decided to teach Preston to body slam his poor puppy... boys....

Preston decided to follow in his Daddy's footsteps and body slam the unsuspecting animal....

You gotta watch out for Daddy though... because he turned around and body slammed both of them

Kinda a fuzzy picture...but still cute:)

Family Vacation in New Jersey

Here are some pictures of our first little family trip to New Jersey to visit Breezy and Jon.
Preston tried helping me pack by getting into the suitcase himself

We also got to visit the aquarium. Here is Preston looking at some huge lobsters

Checkin out some other fish

He loved getting to walk around the aquarium

A cool pic of the shark tank

Sittin' back and enjoying a soft pretzel

This was outside the aquarium... a good view of the Philadelphia skyline

On Saturday we were able to go down to their Jersey shorehouse to spend the night. Preston was able to see the ocean for the first time. This is a shot of the house as we were walking in.

This is Daddy and Preston in their kitchen when we first arrived.

Outside the house getting ready to see the beach

Daddy showing Preston the ocean.

This is a picture from the beach view of their shorehouse.

So... the question most asked is "What did Preston think of the beach?"... ummm... let's just say this is as close to the sand he would get. He wasn't a big fan... but it was his first time playing with sand.... so I'm sure eventually he'll love it... just not that day:)

He was more than happy to stay on the towels and play though

This is a picture of their pool off one of the balconies. I thought the picture turned out really cool so I wanted to post it.

Here is Daddy and Preston Sunday morning on the second story porch overlooking the beach.

We had such a great time on our trip. We just wanted to thank Breezy and Jon once again for having us out there and keeping us busy with lots of fun stuff. My only regret is that I didn't take pictures at Breezy and Jon's house, so I didn't have pictures to put on here. They have a beautiful home though, and Breezy is awesome at interior design so she has it decorated so neat... I just wish that I could have shown that. Thank you again Breezy and Jon! We already miss you!
