June 5, 2009: Emerson finished up preschool and started his summer break.
June 7: Mommy turned 30 so we went to the shore for the weekend to celebrate!
June 25: I finished kindergarten!
June 26: Mommy took us to Jones Family Farm to go strawberry picking; we had enough to make Strawberry Shortcake, Chocolate Covered strawberries, and 8 jars of strawberry jam!
June 27: We went to RI (across the border from CT) to camp. It rained and hailed so much that we all had to sleep in the car!
July 8: We left for NC with Mommy for 3 weeks! Poppop Suter had us for a while day by himself for BOYS DAY!! He took us to the Waffle House, to play laser tag, to the water slides and then to CiCi's Pizza!! Then we got to spend a weekend with Trey, Aunt Jessy, and Uncle Carl (THANK YOU!). We went to the beach a lot! Mommy and Aunt Jessy even took us to see the USS North Carolina Battleship in Wilmington one day.
July 24-27:We drove from Jacksonville, NC to Chapel Hill, NC to see Aunt Jourdan and have lunch. Then we drove from Chapel Hill to Charlotte to see Aunt Shelly, Uncle Justin, Avery, and baby Henry.
July 27-28: We drove from Charlotte, NC to Woodbridge, VA to see Mommom Lois. She took us to play putt putt and eat ice cream!
July 28: WE FINALLY MADE IT HOME!!! Daddy made and posted a special sign for us in the kitchen that said "Welcome Home!" and had flowers for Mommy and legos and fireworks for me and Em!
July 31: I turned 6!! We invited my best friend Eric and his family, and my Poppop Ladd over for pizza and ice cream cake. This year I picked a "cake batter" flavored ice cream cake from Carvel's that had Harry Potter on top. I picked Harry Potter 3 because we finished reading it over vacation and got to watch the movie that week for family movie night.
August 18 (i think): We went to Lake Compounce for the day with our friends Jasmyn and Jayda Newsom. It was part water park, part amusement park....total fun!
Here are some pictures from the summer!
