A busy time lately

We have kept super busy lately. In May we went to the Collingswood Mayfair. Elliot had his first pony ride and he did it without hesitation. At the end of the month we took a trip to Cape May Point for the weekend. The weather was beautiful. Elliot is still not a huge fan of walking on the sand but he did have a blast stomping on sand castles and playing with the water. Strawberry picking was also a May activity. The boys had a great time with Mommom and Poppop and probably ate more strawberries in the field than what we brought home.
The 4th of July brought Aunt Kate, Uncle Paul, John and Jeannie to NJ. Elliot had so much fun playing with his cousin all week. We watched the Haddonfield Parade and Elliot patriotically waved his flag the whole time. After nap we went to Crystal Lake Pool and swam until bedtime. Unfortunately, both boys are in bed way before the fireworks are set off so daddy did his own mini-show for the boys on our street.
Elliot went fishing for the first time and caught 3 fish! He really did enjoy his time (and seeing Kyle fall into the lake was a little funny--and scary--)
