Cape Cod August 2013

Our last hurrah of the summer was going to Cape Cod with some of Andrew's family for a week! Andrew's family has been going there every summer since he was a little kid so it's fun to go and do some of the traditions they've been doing for years!  We hadn't been back to Cape Cod since 2010 when we were dating, so it was even better this time actually being part of the family :) We lucked out with great weather for most of the week too! Andrew and I are still trying to figure out how we can get a vacation house out there...

The beautiful house we stayed in right on the water--thanks to John & Rach!

Me & Mikes first morning on the lake 

spent lots of time lounging

Anyone who knows Andrew knows that he always has to be moving or doing something! We were going nonstop the whole first day! Playing soccer, whiffle ball, swimming, etc. It was nice to go cool off in the lake after all the nonstop sports activities we were doing! 

cooling off in the water :) 

pushing Addie in the swing! We were so glad we got to spend time with our darling darling niece and nephew!

 You can't go to Cape Cod without going to 4 Seas Ice Cream....in fact I think we went 4 or 5 times :) 

Andrew unfortunately had to make the 3 hour drive back to Springfield during the week to work and didn't come back until Thursday. The rest of us spent lots of time lounging, playing in the water, and eating lots of snack food. That's what you do on vacation right?! 

my little diva mini-me! 

 When Andrew came back the weather turned pretty ugly and rained a lot. We spent the day getting new jewelry, eating at Moby Dick's and playing games inside. 

double date with our boys!

finally getting my Cape Cod bracelet and ring to match! :) All the Hunter/Harding ladies have this matching bracelet. When I came in 2010, Andrew said I couldn't get one until I actually became part of the family!! 

The family always goes to Moby Dick's to eat every year at Cape Cod. The salmon never disappoints. 

a few empty spots for the family members missing :( 

Andrew feeding Addie french fries with his lobster haha 

loved loved loved getting to snuggle this adorable boy.

During the storm, Andrew took Addie out to take a Polar bear plunge....except Andrew was the only one to get in the water! I don't blame Addie for not wanting to get in. It was freezing! 

We were so sad when the week came to an end because we won't be seeing all the fam again for awhile. It was such a fun vacation!! Thanks John and & Rach for renting the house!!
