leaving for new hampshire

We left out for New Hampshire Friday afternoon.  We got there 5 or so hours later due to traffic, but we had a fun time in the car.  The scenery was breathtaking once we got through the city and started seeing the mountains in New Hampshire.  Our destination was Columbia, New Hampshire, which is only a few miles from the Canadian border.  Chad's Uncle Jim and Aunt Linda Rainville live there and they planned a family get together for the weekend.

Chad took the back seat with the kids...not sure how much he regretted that decision, but he didnt complain any.

Renee and I got to lead the way in the front.

barely into our trip....

One of the tunnels...

In New Hampshire, the state owns all the liquor stores.  How funny is that?  I had to take a picture.

One of many spectacular views on our roadtrip.

Jordan lost control of a foot in her sleep.

at the airport before our flight...

seth was so excited...he wouldnt stop talking.  glad he was sitting with chad...

devin let ryan sit by the window, but ryan quickly changed his mind.  he has his mother's fear of heights.  about half way through the flight, he took the window seat back, realizing the view out the window is half the fun.

Tigers...season over.

Ryan had a double play on this one. Tagged the kid on his way to 2nd, then threw the runner out at 1st.

Seth got some action in left field this past Saturday. He got in front of the ball and wasted no time throwing it in to his cut off.

Our Devin along with Devin Hayes and Zach Borden before leaving town for a tourney this weekend in Gallatin, TN.

This is what you get when you have a bored teenager sitting around with nothing to do. He spent and afternoon building an outdoor cage for the Guinea Pig. As you can see, he even threaded twine between the sticks. If you look even closer, you can see Pig hiding out in there.
