Our Vacation - Cape Cod 2010

Last week we were on Cape Cod for the whole week. It was nice to have a whole weeks vacation, we had not had one since our honeymoon six years ago. We stayed at a family cottage in Dennisport. We went from Saturday July 10 through Saturday July 17. I love this picture. This was taking on Jeff's phone the last night we were at the beach, Friday. We had just come from going out to dinner.
Ryan hanging out in his pj's watching Mickey Mouse with Mickey toy next to him. We watch a lot of TV down there but we were on vacation.

Our first day at the beach, Sunday. We had nice weather almost the whole time we were there.
Ryan looks like he is going to jump right in.


When I ask him to say "cheese" sometimes, he doesn't look at me.



He did a lot of running on the beach.
We went to the beach about three or four times during the day and about three times at night.


Dad and Ryan swimming.


Ryan watching Dad swim.

More swimming. Ryan didn't want to ever leave the beach.
There was a ton of sea weed on the this beach (watch is located two blocks from the cottage, so we just walked there) Ryan was saying the sea weed was sea monsters or sea creatures. He was throwing them back into the ocean.


Having a snack outside. Scrappy was good for the most part. He only ran out of the yard twice.


The Wave Face. When ever a wave would come close Ryan would do the wave face (this face) to avoid getting water in his eyes nor mouth.


Tuesday
Ryan in a boat getting ready to go on the pedal boats with us.

Ryan and Mama ready for the pedal boats. I think this is the only picture I'm in during our vacation.

Ryan and Dad on the pedal boats. Ryan got really hot wearing the life jacket and wanted to go in. We were on the boat for about 45 minutes. When we turned around to go in we got a breeze and it made it a little bit better. We saw a sea otter, crabs, mussels and claims on our boat ride.


We also saw geese and ducks on our boat ride.

On Tuesday we also went to the Sundae School, which a ice cream restaurant. They have the best ice cream sundaes. I got an ice cream sundae and shared it with Ryan. Ryan and Jeff got ice cream cones.





At the restaurant there is a player piano. If you put a quarter in it, it plays by it self. Ryan is here pretending the play the piano.


On Wednesday, our friends were coming to stay with us for the rest of the week. Dave, Heather and Blake. Jeff's friends from PA.
Before they got there we went to the Kandy Korner store. Where they have an assortment of all types of candy and slushies. Ryan, Jeff and I all got some candy.
It was a sweet day.

Scrappy seem to enjoy vacation too. He got a lot of belly rubs, got to see new people and tons of food.


Thursday
We went to the beach again with our friends. We made many sand castles on the beach.


Thursday night
We went back to the beach to play in the sand and try to fly Ryan's Elmo kite he got for Christmas from Grandpop. It didn't work too well, but Ryan didn't seem to care. Dad, I think had more fun with it then Ryan.


Blake and Ryan on the beach rocks, wet and sandy. Blake is five years old. For the most part the boys got a long well. By Saturday they were acting like brothers.

I wrote Ryan's name in the sand. He can't write his name yet, but tries to. He spells it out and pretends to write it. It is very cute.


I thought it was adorable that the boys had almost the exact same pj's.
Overall, we had a great week. Everyone seem to have a good time.
