Dedicated to family travel. This blog used to be about the "girls only" trips, but lately I've decided it'll do nicely for all our travel adventures whether lots of us are going or only one or two of us.

Swimming at Grandpa and Grandma's Hotel


The Graduate

Congratulations Tyson!


A couple of photos from Cara's trip in progress...

She didn't take either of these (I stole them from friends on facebook), but I thought they were cool.  Both were taken last night.

 Yankees game, bases loaded.
Can you say, "Nosebleed"?  :)

NYC skyline.
Beautiful.

Family Photo?

Shelley's got a friend who could take a family photo at the reunion.  We're thinking that might be swell.  We could walk over to the park and get a great background.  We're not 100% positive it'll happen or which day, but just in case it does, please pack something in the white-blue-denim-beige color pallet.  Yee Haw!

The Visit


These are the only photographic proof that Shelley and Becky just visited the Lagges.  I guess it's not proof Shelley was here, but check out the brace on Becky's leg.  She can't drive so someone must have driven her here!  It was a great time.  Lots of eating!  :)  Come back soon, girls!

We have rented the covered pavilion, complete with tables for our afternoon at the pool.  It's all ours from 12:00-3:00 on Tuesday, July 17.  We'll be taking our lunch with us.  Don't forget your sunscreen!  AWESOME!  :)
