Cape Cod

My husband's parents invited us on a trip to Cape Cod! It was our first time to go!

We collected some very cool rocks and shells.

We stayed in an adorable cape house. We went to three different beaches. The boys had a blast. Our favorite part was a homemade ice cream shop called Cape Cod Creamery. I loved the vanilla cinnamon ice cream but their blueberry ice cream was a huge hit with the boys!

Pirates at The Beach!

We went to Long Beach Island for a week of fun and relaxation with the boys and their cousins! Dave had this great idea to have a pirate treasure hunt for all the kids. We got pirate party favors and candy and put them in a huge chest. Dave mapped out a plan and buried clues along the beach for the kids. Uncle Tom ran in to tell us that a pirate was sited out on the beach and the fun began! (My husband is in charge of planning Landon's next birthday party! He has some seriously creative party planning skills!)

"Hey Everyone, There Are Pirates Outside!"


Let's look for clues!


There's a clue here, Logan!


All the clues taped together made a huge key with a treasure map on the back!


We found the treasure! DIG! DIG!


Is There Treasure Inside?


"Wow the pirates knew each of our names and left everyone a bag of goodies!"
