Pre-Vacation Photo Dump

We are packing up & taking off for 6 days of lobster and beaches and low(er) humidity, but before we strap everyone in the car & go, here are some catch-up pictures to tide everyone (Grammy) over in our absence.

Awww, friends
Oh, but Harper is honing her little sister skills
 Matching firefighter jams!  [Luke picked them out]
 A little picnic waiting for the splashpark to open
 SPLASHPARK!
Harper is not afraid
 Of anything



 A meeting of the Mutual Admiration Society convenes over Crocs
 Prettyprettyprettyprettyprettypretty
 Luke, wearing Crocs that were handed down to us for future use by Harper...
"Luke's Clubhouse" was busted out during a rainy streak. 
Harper was undeterred by the sign
Success!  PWN!
 Story time in the accompanying set of matching firefighter jams

 Harper, hanging out with Maggie at Aunt Sharren's house, post sprinkler fun

 Do you think Harper was tired & ready to go home?
 Luke and his friend Genna (of the hand-me-down Crocs above) enjoy hippie ice pops at the Ramsey, NJ farmer's market.  They really were having fun, despite their faces here
 What did Luke & Harper think was the MOST FUN EVER?  Why, sitting in the crib eating apples, of course.  Lukey loves Harper.
 Harper loves Lukey.
 Luke is a ham
 Luke is done with the paparazzi

 Hugs!

"Look, Harper," said Luke, in his most learned tone, "this is where Fig Newtons come from."
 Wearing Uncle Joe's "construction worker hat" to the Italian Festival
 Harper enjoyed the cannolis, thank you very much
The other night, after a good 15 minutes of clinking, clanking, and general rustling in the kids' room after lights out, Luke appeared at the top of the stairs.  "I accidentally thought we were going on vacation tomorrow so I packed my little suitcase with some things and 100 coins."  We were dying to find out what that meant, but had to wait for the next morning.  Sure enough...
 Luke put this ensemble together for a pre-vacation book retrieval trip to the library.  Very early-to-mid 90s grunge

Harper Takes Grammy's

Harper, while a very worldly girl, had yet to visit her Grammy & Grandpap Rosella's house in Pittsburgh.  Nor had she met the "Rosella Cousins."  So off we went to Pittsburgh, stomach flu that decimated the family in the days preceding our departure be damned!

Luke and Harper made themselves right at home.

Harper spent much of her time pushing this chair ALL OVER THE HOUSE










Luke loves Grandpap.
 

He especially loved flying Uncle Joe's helicopter with Grandpap (rated "best part of the trip")
Luke, Simon, and Chloe had a blast together and were generally noisy


Harper and Chloe took care of the baby


 We did our best to get a picture of "all 4 grandkids" for Grammy
It started out well enough...

Harper Casey: 24 lbs of Attitude
Devolving quickly


Harper's all "Whatever, I'm outtie. I'm going to go and touch all of their toys."
 
Grammy was surprised with a birthday cake and a serenade from the kids
...and she cried
 
 Sure am sad we left that megaphone at Grammy's...
 

LOVE.
 

Harper's "bunny face"


Harper ate A LOT
 

Which made Grandpap proud
