Mom & Dad's Visit November 2011

Mom, Dad and MacTavish came for a New Jersey visit in November. The kids had only two days of school that week due to teacher convention week (which is like a state holiday for the kids). We spent the time not only hanging out, but breaking in the new pool/air hockey table and a few day trips as well. Grammy, Papa and Nick went to the Adventure Aquarium for a special penguin day. We went into Philadelphia for a tour of the US Mint and lunch at a local restauraunt that has incredible cheesesteaks. We took a day trip to Cape May to see the zoo and ocean shore; it was way to cold to swim but the weather was unseasonably warm for November. Papa brought the kids a chess set and Nick has become addicted. It hasn't beat the video games for his attention but several days a week he is asking someone to play a game with him. The dogs got along fabulously as always. Unfortunately, Rob spent most of their visit in Germany on his annual trip but at least it made our time without him go by much quicker. Oh yeah I almost forgot, we celebrated my 40th Birthday with a special dinner at Outback steakhouse.
