Beach Break


We were in some need of some fun in the sun, so on the first weekend of August we headed up to Rehoboth. I got to do a little bit of shopping, and we even got to go out for a date night, while Ellie hung out at home. We spent all day Sunday at the beach, it was a beautiful day! Later that afternoon we took Ellie to FunLand and she rode on the little boats and the fire engines all by herself!! We just couldn't bring ourselves to drive home that day...so we left the next morning, and I went straight to work.
Here is Ellie's very first solo ride...

Baltimore


Ted and I decided it might be nice to go away on a little mini staycation, so we packed Ellie up and headed up to Balitmore. Ellie was a little under the weather, but as always she was a trooper. We got a hotel right in the Inner Harbor. After checking in we walked around through the innner harbor and explored the Maryland Science Museum.



We had a great dinner in Little Italy and then headed back to the hotel. On Sunday we hit the Aquarium. We were supposed to go see a Dolphin Show, but that morning one of the dolphins gave birth!




After the Aquarium we had a wonderful meal at The Rusty Scupper. When we are in Maynard, visting our family we eat at "The Scupper" so it reminded me of Ellie's Great Grandpa.
