Big Rick and Mary Jane's visit

The third week in June, Nana and Papa came up from PA for a visit. They brought their new 28ft. camper (travel trailer), and they camped down at a campground in Georgetown that was right on the water. They spent a lot of time up in town with us, but we also enjoyed a night picnicking with them at their site. Above, Cate is in her new pink chaise that arrived with Nana and Papa. Below, one of the new outfits Nana brought for Cate.


Aside from new clothes, toys, and furniture, the best thing Nana and Papa brought with them was their new Shih Tzu puppy, Tate. Tate became Cate's best friend, and she dragged (literally) that poor dog all over the house every time she was at the house. After Zoe realized Tate wasn't a squirrel, she was cool with her too. :)

Hugs for Tate.
At one point, Cate disappeared upstairs with Tate, and when we found them, Cate had put Tate in her rocker in her room and was reading her books.



We enjoyed a long boat ride one afternoon with Rick's parents. We made the usual trip down to Five Islands, where we enjoyed lunch on the dock.

Cate has been a little more uneasy about the boat this year. You can see her enthusiasm below!
