After the excitement of the summer in Avalon, we decided to take a little vacation to Ocean City, MD before Gianna goes back to school to relax and get Kevin far far away from work.



Here are a few highlights of our trip.

Gianna and Ainsley's first trip across the Delaware Bay on the Cape May Lewes Ferry.



Gianna and Ainsley with Daddy on the beach. The water was really rough in the days before Tropical Storm Hanna.


The Scarpa family's first Surrey ride. If you have plans to try out a surrey, DON'T! Unless it's snowing, because you'll sweat your butt off, and it's a lot of work and a little fun. Plus, Kevin was such a bad driver.


Gianna loved the pool at the hotel. She is getting very comfortable in the water, especially with her water wings. She's taking swimming lessons and getting really good at swimming underwater.


Gianna took her first solo roller coaster ride...literally. There was nobody at the park at that time, and she got to go on her first coaster without an adult. She was a little nervous and declined a second ride.

What a great family vacation! Love the photo of Gianna diving in the pool! I can't believe how brave she is...heck, I can't believe how brave you are to let her do that!

Looks like you guys had a great vacation! The girls are getting so grown up! Gianna looks like an expert swimmer and I can't believe Ainsley is going to be a year!

I'm laughing at Kevin and the kids in the teacups. I took Malcolm on and got us going soo fast around I didn't realize until Malcolm said "MOMMY STOP" Geoff said it looked like I had him in a centrafuge. Seeing that photo brought back the memories of that trip. I'll be there again Next September. Do you think you can get Kevin away from work two years in a row?
