Cape May

Lighthouses, salt water taffy, and shopping. We kept pretty busy in Cape May.

Helena made it up the 130 steps to the top of the Cape May lighthouse. She quickly ran inside after it got windy. Her legs were sore the next day.

It's good to know that we will not be getting a pet iguana. Jonathan wanted nothing to do with this lizard.

Helena through a penny in the fountain for good luck. It worked for Sara, not for Jeff, in the casinos.

To kill some time before dinner, Helena and Jeff went minature golf. The highlight was Helena getting a hole in one.

Ocean City and more

On Friday, we headed down to Ocean City, NJ to walk the boardwalk. Along the way, we made a stop at a famous cookie store. On the way back, we stopped at a national landmark - Lucy the wooden elephant.

There was only one place to go for cookies in Ocean City, and that was Crazy Susan's.

Jonathan fell asleep on the ride from Ocean City back north, but he quickly woke up once he realized we had reached Lucy the wooden elephant.

We saw this restaurant on the way down and we snapped a shot on the way back. It says on the banner it is Kosher Italian. I forgot that Italy was known for falafel!

Happy 40th Birthday Sara!

May 24th was Sara's 40th birthday. We celebrated the occasion by heading down to the Jersey shore for a long weekend.

Helena definitely enjoyed brunch!

Road Trip!

Helena is obsessed with RV's, so when I heard about a RV show being held locally over the weekend, how could we pass it up?

We're going to the Jersey Shore!

The weather was awesome this past Saturday, so we joined the large number of people who also decided to hit the beach and the boardwalk.










Jonathan wasn't wild about getting on this ride, but once we strapped him in, he had no choice!








We heard about this restaurant from MTV's "Jersey Shore." The portions were huge and the food was good.

Let's Party!!!

We celebrated Jonathan's birthday today with a party at the gym.





Jonathan was unwilling to do the scotter by himself. And the scooter was not made for an adult. And it was not made for an adult with a 3 year old on his lap.




All smiles on the way to the finish line




No birthday party is complete without pizza...





...and cake (Spiderman theme)




Jonathan didn't want to see any icing go to waste!




Twins!
