Mid-July Update

Well...the summer is definately here. Now, it's not that we don't like summer, we just could do with less heat and humidity! It's an official heat wave with the next 5 days all over 90 degrees. Tomorrow it's supposed to be 99 plus the humidity...glad I'm working in the office and not the field tomorrow! So, what have we been up to lately? Well, Ron was so helpful and posted the picture from Surf City over the 4th of July weekend. We had a good time down the shore - yes, the term is "down the shore" any self respecting native New Jerseyan wouldn't say it any other way (which I still do, even though we live in Delaware now). We hit the beach and went out on the boat..some big first for Miss Maddie! Unfortunately I used a disposable waterproof camera for those pictures (the whole digital camera getting wet thing...) and I don't have them back yet. I'll post some when I do. Maddie enjoyed the beach and especially splashing...she fell asleep during the boat ride even with the bouncing about! We've also gone to Baltimore to visit college friends and their families and that was good fun - Maddie of course turned on the charm. This weekend - down to Maryland to visit with Ron's side of the family and meeting some cousins, Aunt and Uncle she hadn't met before..There are still more people to meet but slowly we're checking them off... Ok...here they are...the pictures!
