Family Day

 These first pictures are of Ben and Elizabeth with their book caterpillars from camp read a lot with Grandma. 
                                            Whoo - they read a lot of books this summer!
                                              They were very proud of their accomplishments.
                      The kids then opened presents from Grandma and Grandpa for back to school.
 For the last few years we have had a family day before school starts.  Tom takes a day off of work and we go do something fun.  This year our plan was to go to Six Flags and when we woke up in the morning it was raining and never stopped so that plan had to change.  We decided to try the aquarium.  The kids thought it was so much fun. 












We saw so many great fish, it was a ton of fun.  After the aquarium we went to see a movie and then out to dinner.  It was a good way to celebrate one of our last days of summer.
