August weekends

Is it a nice weekend? Is it summer near the shore? Let's go to family day at the race track. That's right we took our kids to the races and they (Gianna) learned all about placing bets. Too bad she didn't learn about winning money. We had so much fun, but money would have been a nice bonus!



They had pony rides for the kids. Have I mentioned that Mark loves horses? He does. This day might have been heaven for him. The blue horse in every race was "his" and he always wanted to know if "his horse" won. Turns out, we should have bet on blue every time because I think the blue horse won at least 2 races.


Add blue slushies and they're really in heaven.


On the upper decks keeping cool in the shade.


Gianna took this one. Not bad, kid.


Another weekend we went to see an outdoor children's production of Cinderella. By children's production I mean it was put on by children, so not my favorite, but Gianna loved it and Mark was intrigued.


The play was followed by a nice picnic in the park.
 


Finally, we met Doug's high school buddy, Brandon in Jersey City for an afternoon. We were afraid the kids would be bored, but it was a gorgeous day and they loved running around this area. It was great to see Brandon and have a yummy Taco Truck lunch.
