Father's Day Weekend

We spent this past Father's Day weekend in New Jersey with the Beyers. We relaxed at Pappy's cabin, had some good cookouts, hung out at Michael and Courtney's place (by the pool!), took advantage of some summer clothing sales at the outlet mall in Tannersville (Trafton was getting low on summer clothes that fit), went out to eat at one of our old favorite restaurants, and even went out for ice cream alone after Trafton went to bed at Pappy's house. It was a wonderful first weekend of summer vacation!

Happy Father's Day, Pappy!

Trafton's first dip in the pool. It took him about 15 minutes to stop from crying before he seemed to enjoy the water.

He is beginning to enjoy the water here floating and playing with his toys.

This was Trafton's favorite way to enjoy the pool!

(not actually touching any of the water)

We took a walk through the woods on Uncle Michael's property on one of the trails that he maintains.

Michael and Courtney have a 10-week-old kitten that just captured Trafton's attention. He got so excited when the playful little thing would dart around him. In this picture, though, he had just spotted a statue in the garden that looked like a cat and he was moving toward it as fast as he could, calling out "ca" for cat the whole time.

Courtney has two beautiful horses on the property. Trafton was scared of them at first, but eventually warmed up to them, calling them 'cats' as well. Here he is sitting on Fire.

This is Courtney's own horse, Sebastian. Trafton enjoyed petting them and sitting on the horses, but let out massive cries when they made any sort of noise or slight quick movement.
