july 3rd - vacation in exotic millersville

We took the kids to Millersville last night so they could wake up on a mini-getaway to celebrate the birth of the USA with Gramps and Grandmum.  Alex was really excited to swim in the pool and talked about it all week.

Alex had plenty of sticky buns, put enough hours in behind the wheel to drive across country, rode his bicycle with both Gramps and Grandmum, slept on an air mattress with daddy, helped mommy make handmade burgers, and came close to needing CPR.

Gemma had her first experience swimming in a pool, took a nice afternoon nap under the willow tree, stood up all by herself against the ottoman, managed twelve wardrobe changes in three days, and wore the hell out of as many hats.
