Summer Sweetness

Here's a little of what we've been up to the past couple of months: 


Camping at Table Rock....let me just say that I really think you should be able to tell a person's campworthiness by the type of hair they have while camping. I managed to avoid all cameras while on this brief venture but just imagine the biggest/frizziest hair with bangs that you've seen and you may have a glimpse of what took place ; ) The temp was either in or very close to the 100's so it was pretty stinking hot but we found an incredible waterfall that was freezing and wonderful at the same time. 


Tennyson with his 'fire stirring/snake killing' stick. Mr. Chlazy as we often call him was not feeling well (fever, cough, super runny nose....which he had the beginnings of right before the trip and I thought would be resolved by some quality outdoor time...who knew ridiculously/suffocatingly hot weather actually makes these things worse?....lesson learned) 


And here he is again....I'm thinking this was after we had the snake scare (a pretty good sized snake slithering from our campsite to the next) and then said 'ok, time to go night night!' This face says it all.

Our friend Sophia's birthday party was the next stop. She turned the big '3' and had a Toy Story themed bash. Tennyson and I headed down to Myrtle Beach for the night to celebrate with our friends....It was a fantastic time of celebration and catching up with old friends. I'm sad I didn't get any pictures of Tennyson and Sophia together but here's Tennyson dressed up as a pretty fabulous Woody.

(Lisa, Me, Meggan - Sophie's mom hence the fun woody shirt and Christie)


Last but not least Oscar, Tennyson and I took a road trip to Washington DC. It was our homage to the days of being 'just the 3 of us'. We stayed with some friends who lived right outside of DC, took a tram around DC, ate at Uncle Julios and Coastal Platts (best lobster roll and grilled corn I've ever eaten), strolled around Georgetown, walked around the National Cathedral and took in the overall culture of DC (super different place)


What has everyone else been up to? Over and out.
