We headed East last week - meeting some of my family is Maryland for a week long vacation. As the title of this post implies, only 3 of us Peas were able to go. August's foot injury turned out to be surgery worthy. He had a screw put in the day before we left and then stayed behind to recover in the peace and quiet of an empty house. We missed him a lot - but still managed to see the sights and enjoy ourselves.
Here are some good cousin pictures...by the end of the week Caleb asked me to stop taking pictures...I figure if they just would smile the first time I asked I wouldn't have to take as many. So here are cousin pictures - Anabel and Alice - sweet, but also not really into the photography.
Sam and Caleb hamming it up for the camera.
Best friends - forever.
Caleb in front of the Washington Memorial.
Sam and Caleb resting thier tired feet at the World War II Memorial fountain. Caleb first walked up to this one and immediately started to pull down his pants. I was in such shock it took me a minute to stop him. He said he thought we were going swimming - but then was content to just soak feet.
One of the few pictures of me on the trip - proof that I was present. At least my eyes are open.
Caleb and Grandpa watching the planes. This might have been Caleb's highlight of the day. With these monuments so close to the airport, the planes and helicopters flew by every few minutes. Each fly by got him really excited.
Even on vacation Alice will make the stink face.
Cousins playing.
Girls at the beach! Alice is not a fan of the sand...she wouldn't take her shoes off.
Caleb at the Washington DC zoo.
We stayed in an amazing house on Cheasapeke Bay - Here are a couple boats we could see from the front deck.
Another rare photo - 3 peas at the Air and Space Museum in Virginia.
No one would smile and look at the camera on command - oh well, ended up cuter being an action shot.
Caleb and Sam on the boardwalk.
Caleb and Abe Lincoln
Another good zoo pic!
