I've spent so much time dinking this that I'm just going to make it short and sweet. We had a GREAT time. The weather was hot and humid and a-okay with me because we were always near a pool or the beach! Different from our other Jersey vacations, on this vaca we spent a lot of time with my step-sister's family on various beaches along the Jersey Shore. The girls and I had a great time with Aunt K, Uncle B and their 2 girls. The cousins all had a ton of fun with each other. Here's what we did:
Exploring the Mountain bike trails by my mom's house. We were wishing we had our bikes-it was a pretty tough trail for NJ! I was able to get out most mornings and run it. Very pretty woods-started a lot of deer(so lovely), tried hard to avoid all the tiny froggies jumping about by the river, and got a kick out of turtle "song"!
The cousins and Pops.

Me and Dea's yearly shopping trip to New York City-
Ground Zero
Ferried around the Statue Of Liberty
Seaside Heights-
We all took a trip to Atlantic City-very fun! Here's our suite complete with 4 bathrooms and 2 "Buttwashers"!
Taking a limo costs the same as trying to get us all into 3 cabs. The kids LOVED it!
Trump Marina Casino
The boardwalk
The pool was on the 6th floor!

I always feel SLAMMED into fall after our late summer trips back East. It's cooling off here in Alaska, the blueberries are ripe for pickin' and the colors are just staring to change! Dea is now a freshmen in High School-holy Jeebus! And my baby starts full time Kindergarten in 2 days-I could just crawl into a hole...but that's the next post....

Looks like a ton of hot, hot fun!
Do you get huckleberries up there? We missed them down here this year. Big disappointment.
Wow! what a great vacation:)
That suite looks pretty amazing.
How was the butt washers? I'd love to try that someday:)
It so weird when the pools are on the upper floors!
I hope the girls have a wonderful school year!
All day Kindergarten?, yikes!
OH momma, what are you going to do with all that free time?
Yay! Bliss! Bring on Summer! XXxx.
Your vacation trips are always so fun to see photos of and read about. I lived in NYC for a year a long, long, long time ago and miss it so much.
Ahhh...big wistful sigh...
I so loved reading this post. ;)
