Austen enjoyed her trip to Cape May. On the way there, we stopped at the zoo. We saw lots of animals, ate some food and went on a short train ride.
Afterwards, we went to our motel and coincidentally, everyone was pulling into the parking lot at the same time. We went to eat, where Austen got to meet the gang, including some new people. As usual, she like the “big girls,” Katie & Hannah.
Since we had some new visitors, we had to assign new handles.
Joe (Heather’s friend) — Dirt Dog, ODB, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, Dirt McGirt
Katie (Hannah’s friend) — The Ganj
Stephanie (Zack’s friend)– Bruiser (after the chihuahua from Legally Blonde)
The trip was full of long dinners at various restaurants but Austen forged through them, accompanied by toys, sticker books and singing.
We only made it to the beach one morning. Austen enjoyed it a little but didn’t really want to go in the water this year.
Instead of the beach, Austen went to the pool a few times to play around.
Austen enjoyed eating ice cream. It helped get rid of the crankies and temporarily beat the heat.
