Trip, Summer 2003
Best viewed 600 x 800 or the pictures will be tiny.

This is where we went first.  This is where the kids "lived" until we went to the lake.  

Bottoms Up.

The deck has to be tall because the dog kept jumping into the pool.  He's half Chow and half Golden Retriever.  The Golden Retriever part carries the day and he loves to swim!  He doesn't get to swim in pool, but he got to go to the lake.

But first, there were birthdays to be celebrated.  The older two are both June babies.  There was an outing to shop for presents--new swim suits, swim shoes, and snorkles all around!  Then there was face painting, birthday cake, and balloons.

It was only a "long weekend," but we crammed it joy full.

P.S.  This one missed the trip because of a concert he and his dad couldn't miss.
