Vacation, Part II
During our stay in PA we were house guests of my Aunt Diane and Uncle Rick. We shared the place with Jennifer, Dave, Griffin and Addison (my cousin Jennifer's family). It was a full house, but tons of fun. Sadly we didn't take any group pics, but here are some action shots. Most are from around the pool. Griffin and Addison are little fish. This was Em's first time in a pool, and she did really well!
Warming up to the water.
She got comfortable playing on the stairs.
Hanging with Daddy, Grandpa and Aunt Beca.
Addison (who is fearless) and Griffin swimming up a storm.
Addison in goggles for her underwater swims.
Emily was spooked of the grass (that's our city girl), so Great Pop-Pop tried to coax her onto it with a shoe, one of her favorite things.
Hanging out.
Griffin and Emily's "posed" pic.
Addison wanted to try on her Grandma's shoes.
And hat!
Playing peek-a-boo with Grandma.
Griffin showing Em that her key chain can be use for so much more.
Looks perfect for double dutch. Now they just need a willing participant.
Here's one!
Trying to get the rhythm :)

Vacation, Part I
Faced with the daunting task of sorting through all our July pics, we’ve decided to go through them bit by bit. This is the first in a 3 (or 4 or 5) part series of vacation photos.
Yay - we arrived safely in PA and Em gets to meet the Pepperling family! Here she is with her Great Babci. (I think Em's admiring her pretty bracelets.)
Hanging out with cousin Juliana the Banana.
Laughing it up with Uncle Tom!
Continuing the laughter with cousin Mel and Uncle Kevin.
(They were a riot - and Em couldn't stop giggling!)
And she grabbed onto her favorite burp cloth to cuddle with Mel the Bell.

Here's Em trying to charm her way into the "grown-up" table. 
Eating cheerios with Great Grampy.
After a long day (and jet lag) Em wound down while Julie read her a book.

It was a fun-fun day, and before heading to bed we managed to get a pic of Em with her great grandparents!
