Summer pictures of our home

Just took a few pictures outside our home. My plants are a bit wilty, thanks to the heat and humidity here. It is really amazing to see the change in seasons on a farm.

Delaware Children's Museum

To get out of the heat, as we don't have central air conditioning, Peter and I went to eh Delaware Children's Museum on the waterfront in Wilmington. This is a new museum and I think they are still developing programs, it cannot compare to the museum we went to Pittsburgh, but it is in keeping with the science theme. Peter did love the place. He grew vegetables and harvested them, he learned about the water process, and changed tires and a muffler on a race car. You can certainly tell Peter's mom is a librarian as he grabs a book (about farm equipment) and sits in a bean bag to look at the pictures!

Fourth of July

This is the first time in Peter's life that we didn't participate in a patriotic day. Instead we used some really great coupons to go to the waterpark at Morey's Pier in Wildwood. We went to my mom's in Cape May on Thursday night, we went to the lighthouse, Cape May Point Nature Center, the beach, the boardwalk in Wildwood and the waterpark in the stretch of the 4th of July weekend. Jeff and I have agreed that Peter will not be unaccompanied to the boardwalk until he is 18 years old. Things have certainly changed at the Jersey shore! Peter went on some really big water slides, and of course splashed around the kids area.
