One of the best parts of the Summer so far is that Pat and I have off on Mondays together. I'm starting work next week but I've arranged my schedule so that we can always have a family day on Mondays. We took advantage of that today and took the kids down the shore for a few different things!
The first activity of the day was a Pirate Adventure Cruise! Nicholas and Addison had a BALL! They got dressed up as pirates and then we boarded and started hunting for some treasure. The kids had the opportunity to use a pirate treasure map, utilize the ship's water cannons, blast Pirate Pete and find the buried treasure! They even tried some Grog! The kids really got into it and their grown-ups, as we were called, had a wonderful time watching them and enjoying the day out on the water!!
After the Pirate Ship we headed out for lunch and then over to Aunt Jen and Uncle Geoff's. The kids played outside and cooled off in the sprinkler while we waited for Aunt Jen to come home from work. Once Aunt Jen got home and we had relaxed a bit we headed to the beach!! We had dinner on the beach at the Tiki Bar and it was PERFECT! We ate right on the sand so that the kids could play in the sand while the adults enjoyed each other's company.
Finally, we wrapped up the day on the boardwalk! We played some arcade games and then had some delicious ice cream while we walked the boardwalk just a bit!
We piled into the car and Addison was asleep instantaneously! Nicholas held out the entire way home, watching movies with Daddy. Once we got home he conked right out (Nicholas, not Daddy) from all of the day's activities!!
