Three Weeks Blew by Before I Could Get Up a Post

Yes, we've been on a bit of a hiatus (both from posting, as well as a trip to Florida which Laura & Summer enjoy above).


Before we get to that we have important highlights to share from the Manhattan Beach Old Hometown Fair. There we rode a pony...


and a Police Motorcycle.


Carson also took a trip to the Zimmer Children's Museum.


Summer's swinging right along with all the activity happening here.


Dr. Meurer joined me for an extremely brief trip to Vegas, and also got to meet Summer.


He wasn't the only visitor, the Bailey's also made it down. Here Vivian and Summer show what Laura has always claimed about second borns having it rough.


Carson can definitely get a job dressing up and standing still out in Hollywood to impersonate a statue.


As if all the excitement in California wasn't enough, we also fit in a trip to Florida to visit Grandma and Grampa.


Summer definitely thought the Florida weather rocked.


Grandma wasn't the only person she was happy to hang out with.


Summer also got to meet her Great Aunt Peg and Great Uncle Tom for the first time.


Carson piloted a variety of craft while in town, including a big wheel...


Boat...


and golf cart. As you can see, he started to develop a bit of an attitude behind the wheel.


We took in a parade while in town, seeing local luminaries such as Gunther Gable Williams' widow (sadly sans lions, tigers or cheetahs).


We also got some fancy citrus themed ice cream that had Summer and I happy, and Carson lunging for more.


It wouldn't be a trip to Florida without plenty of time in the water.


Carson thoroughly enjoyed both the pool...


And the ocean.


I have to imagine we'll be back in October next year.
