A Busy Weekend!

This past weekend we stayed pretty busy. Saturday we had nice weather so I decided to clean up the backyard and pull all the weeds. I think I did a pretty good job! Haha. We wish we threw down some dirt and grass seeds before the big rain we had on Sunday. Oh well! Hopefully next week we can put some more work back there. We are more focused on the front yard. We are hoping to somehow put some wood down (sorry no photo) as a deck and then put some chairs out but we will see. We found out that we may be able to get some dirt, mulch, and even wood for free, or a cheap price, through the Coast Guard.

Sunday was a stormy day in Cape May. Greg had the day off so we had a nice lazy morning. We are not ones to sit still for very long, so while Noah was sleeping, we decided to be fun (haha) and put up a tent in our living room. It was entertaining, and when Noah woke up from his nap, he didn't know what to do! Once he warmed up to it he was running all over and banging on the sides. He was pretty entertained for a while!

We FINALLY put child safety locks on the cabinets. Noah LOVES playing under the sink, and it was starting to drive me a little crazy. :) 

 Helping and Encouraging Daddy...

Sunday afternoon we went to a neighbor's 3rd Birthday party. Even though it was pretty windy and raining, the party was great! There was a magic show, pinata, pizza, cupcakes, and so on! Noah enjoyed every bit of it and loved running around with all the kids.

 Noah's "Airplane on a Stick"

Tonight, we were invited over to a friend's house for a BBQ. We were able to meet her husband, who is stationed on the Vigorous as well, and enjoyed some food and watched our kids play together. Very fun and entertaining! 

Hope everyone had a fun weekend. We heard California had some AMAZING weather! We're jealous! The weather here is very sporadic; one day it will be 70 degrees and sunny, and the next day it is windy, rainy, and cold! 

Tomorrow is the first day everyone is back from leave on the Vigorous. Greg will finally get to meet some of his shipmates. He is definitely looking forward to it. It is a good feeling to finally be on the boat he was assigned to! :)
