Escape to New Jersey...

Well, Kyle and I have managed to get away for a weekend!! We went to stay with his Aunt Barbie and Uncle Neil and visit all of the NJ family in Freehold. We spent the majority of the weekend on the boat, which was awesome!

We're ready to go....at the boat docks!!

Me and Mandy

Mason, Kyle and Cap'n Joey

Kyle caught a butt ugly fish

Mandy caught some seaweed with a starfish

Me and Mandy...getting a tan!

Emily and me....she is holding me up out of the mud! Eww!

Gondela?!? Wha? Aren't we in NJ?? hehe!

Hmm...clams on the grill

Snot on the half-shell!

My more-than-obvious disgust of clams....

Mandy and I swimming with the sharks....

what you can't see won't hurt you...right?

We went swimming, and then once we got back to the cars, the guys heard a news report that there were shark sightings/attacks over the weekend due to the hurricane pushing colder water inland...Yikes! So glad we are all still alive. Thanks Joey for talking us into swimming...

We came home monday, and then I had migraines for two days....yuck! I'm better now...It stinks not being able to take anything except Tylenol....Tylenol does NOTHING!

I'm still feeling pretty good...no throwing up...just a little bit queasy. I have my first actual Dr. appointment Sept 17...I'll already be out of my first trimester by then! CRAZY!

...But very exciting!
