Phase II - The McLaughlin Side

In order to, hopefully, make everyone feel important we divided up our vacation between visiting Sarah's family and my family. On the way to Maine we stopped at Aunt Amanda's and Uncle Jeff's house in PA. It was nice to see trees and rolling hills again instead of the brown, treeless state of TX. (Texas doesn't have trees, they have shrubbrey). Jeff had to work both days but Amanda kept us busy chasing the latest fashions. We were so busy having fun together and enjoy the world famous custard stand that we forgot to take pictures. Luckily Amanda took some for us.

Our next stop was NH. Aunt Emily, Uncle Jon, cousin Cameron and baby Lexi were gracious hosts and let us hang out with them for a couple of days. Abby was able to use her present from Mammie on their front lawn.

Now they didn't have to fight over the lawnmowers. Thanks Mammie!

The next picture would have been both kids crying as Emily and Sarah pulled out of the driveway to go shopping leaving them with Jon and I. We did have a good time with the kids. We took them on a bike ride, ate some pizza, and took them to the lake to splash around while we tried to fish.


We had a great time hanging out with everyone. See some pictures of Abby and Lexi in matching Sunday dresses on the Tuthill's blog: http://familytuthill.blogspot.com/2009/06/everybody-loves-abby.html
We'll have more pics of later.

It's great for the cousins to have time together. Did you catch any fish?
