School's out!!!

We've been on vacation the past month and a half so we're way behind on our blogging.  Here's part one of the update.

Week before our trip

Carter loves bubbles!!

Little Rascal

Bring on the dirt and worms!
(for those who are unfamiliar with this delicacy, this dish consists of chocolate pudding, crushed oreos and gummy worms.  Yum!)

Carter loved it for a minute until he discovered he was dirty.

Carter: "Daddy had an off day on baby dressing duty."
Craig:  "I blame the baby"

Grammy and Uncle Danny took us to the Wildlife Zoo and Aquarium:

This Boa Constrictor display had no glass separating you from  the snake.  Craig did not like this part.

We can't remember what this is Carter is looking at, but he seems to like it.

Giraffe!

Shhh! The tigers are sleeping.

Racing uncle Danny

Waiting for the train to go.

What a cutie

Carter will be reverent at the zoo, just not church.

Attacked by the killer baby goat!

Hey guys, want to race?

New York, New York.....and Philly

Rebel child

Use your eagle powers Craig!
Craig: "That's what I'm doing"

Practicing for New York.
Taxi!

Craig: "World's worst drinking fountain"
Paige: "World's best photo op"

 Ye Olde Time Yoga
"We call this 'The signer'"

"Do you like my beard?"

"Yes, I am the most interesting man in the world."

The mighty hunter

Paige: "I ran up the Rocky Steps."
Celene: "Ugh.  That's so 90's"

YO ADRIAN!!!

(for you National Treasure fans, the bench Riley was sitting on is no longer there so we  found the closest alternative).

Logan Square.

Temple site.  Wahoo!!!
Currently a big hole in the ground, but it's progress.

She loves me.....

.....She loves me not.

Sorry!

"Craig! Do you think this is a game?"

Philly Cheesesteak.  mmmm

Valley Forge

Craig misses tracting so he thought he'd give it another go.  He was unsuccessful.

Craig, can we afford this house?

Waiting for the train to take us to Grand Central Station.

Grand Central

Times Square, in the rain.

Wicked!
