Cavanaugh Family Reunion 2008

The whole Cavanaugh Family was able to get together for this year's family reunion. We all had a great time going to the Great Escape, visiting Aunt Joanne's camp, hanging out at Oma and Poppy's, going to the Altamont Fair and wearing matching shirts (Alex wants to wear his every day). Alex and Abby had a great time getting to know their 9 cousins on this side of the family. We wish that we could all live closer together. We can't wait until the next reunion!

It's Raining, It's Pouring...

After being stuck inside for several hours on yet another rainy day (we've had a lot this summer) Alex had the great idea to get out his and Abby's rain gear (thank you Oma). They had a nice walk in the rain and Abby provided the music with a song she has been able to sing a lot this summer, "It's Raining, It's Pouring."

Go ValleyCats!!!

This week we took Alex and Abby to their first Tri-City ValleyCats baseball game. The ValleyCats are a local single A minor league baseball team...it's not the New York Yankees but it's as close as we can get here. The kids had a great time enjoying the ballpark atmosphere, eating popcorn, clapping and cheering on our team, and watching the fireworks. We had so much fun and the kids did well considering we didn't get home until almost midnight.

Backyard Waterpark

After a recent frustrating trip to a public pool (mostly because Abby for some odd reason doesn't like pools) we decided to invest in a pool...kiddie pool that is...and a couple of sprinklers. Along with a couple of neighborhood friends, our kids had a blast in our very own backyard.
