More Cape Cod

Here are pictures from the second half of our week on the Cape. We went further east to the Chatham lighthouse with the hopes to tour it. We were unable to and will have to go back when the children are 5. The second and third pictures are from Chatham beach. It was beautiful. Can you see the tidal pool way off in the distance? We walked to it to see if it was warm and Nathan walked almost the entire way! This is the kid who we call the "carry me" kid! We saw some seals in these waters. Notice Nathan's pants are wet. He got surprised by a wave. Then just a cute picture of the boys talking on top of a communication box. I would say they stick together during the day about 98% of the time. Pretty much where you find one, you find the other. Or they can tell you where the other is. Or they are asking me where the other is. Matt and the boys had fun sailing a kite. Matt's pretending the kite is pulling Nathan away which they thought was hilarious. The last picture, we ran down to the beach to see a pretty sunset. What a treat!

Dennisport, Cape Cod

We rented a cottage in Dennisport, Cape Cod the week of Labor Day. It was a wonderful experience. The cottage was very nice and functional. The beach (just a short walk) was clean with lots of white sand. We had a few nice meals out (Thomas asks on a regular basis to go to a restuarant! After eating a big breakfast out Saturday morning I mentioned that we wouldn't need much until supper which then Thomas pipes up from the back seat Pizza!) The weather was in general sunny and windy (on the beach) but a few cloudy mornings and one cloudy day. We did some swimming and alot of beach walking. The first picture was our first morning, Labor Day which was a gorgeous (a favorite word to describe the day by Thomas) day which explains why Matt is wearing a t-shirt into the water in the second picture on the second day. His back was burnt. You can see how calm the water was the first half of the week. A hurricane was brewing as the week went on so the waves did develop a little each day. There's Thomas, braver than I am to get buried in the sand. Tuesday afternoon, we tried miniature golfing. I'm glad we didn't keep score! Nathan was into it a bit more than Thomas. Thomas was taken with the water falls and small pools. Nathan got the point of hitting the ball into hole and he tried pretty much each station. Finally the last picture is my little coffee fiend. I must keep track of my coffee or he strikes! Nathan, that is.
