Jack and Charlie Visit

Jaclyn, Jackie, Japalicious, Swoop Deville are all names Jack will respond to. She has been one of my most bestest friends since college, and is on her way to fulfill one of her life long dreams of traveling all over Europe! For 3 months (maybe longer if they find jobs) she'll be adventuring with her very cute boyfriend Charlie. I was so happy that they were able to stop by and say hello before leaving. Carver and I were on our way to Forbidden Drive for a little walk and they happily joined us.
We came across these beautiful boulders surrounded by green and I asked them to stand by them for a portrait. Charlie decided to climb into the boulder and perch himself on an exterior tree root and Jack joined him.
Carver is not shy at all and has no problem invading her personal space. I'm pretty sure Aunt Jackie didn't mind.
Jackie hanging out with Carver and Cappy while Charlie and I went to the Valley Green Inn for some cold beverages.
Here's Jackie a minute after arriving to our house. They drove to PA from Texas in this old Toyota truck. Charlie bought it for only $200 and fixed it up well enough to make it cross country TWICE!
And here's Jackie with her arm caught in the window. She accidently locked the keys in the truck. She said they never locked the doors in Texas and she got all discombobulated. Thank goodness she left the window cracked!
I posted this photo because Jack thinks theres nothing sexier than seeing a good looking man holding a baby. Whoever Jack has babies with is really going to have his hands full;)
Last but not least... Me, Carver and Jack. When we would go out together, people always thought we were sisters and we never corrected them...
Safe travels Jackie and Charlie!! I can't wait to hear all about your adventures when you return! I love you girl!!

Summer's Over All Ready?

This past weekend was fabulous! Our good friends Luke & Kate got lucky and rented a great house (for a great price) last minute in Ocean City, NJ. We headed down late Saturday morning and met up with Luke, Kate and their adorable 1 1/2 year old son Lowen. Coming in right after us were the Fantastic Four... Shane, Cynthia, cutie pie 4 year old Emma, and her handsome 1 1/2 year old sidekick Sammy! Kyle, Carver and I had such a great time with everyone and it was nice to spend some time with the kids, because we don't see them as often as we would like. I managed to get some time to myself for about a half hour on the beach. It was amazing!! I photographed the families hanging out and playing in the ocean before heading back to the house to feed Carver. After the day at the beach we all took a stroll on the boardwalk and had pizza from Mack and Manco's. Carver and I got up early every morning and checked out the sunrise from the house's roofdeck, and Kyle joined us for an early morning walk on the beach on Sunday. Shane, Cynthia, Emma and Sammy went to the amusement park rides on the boardwalk Sunday, I wish I could have been there to photograph that! Well, between Kyle and myself I think we did a pretty good job at documenting the weekend. I put together a slideshow for all to enjoy!
