Ahoy, Me Hearties

We took a day trip to Annapolis with the Kraiss Family to go on a Pirate Adventure!  The kids got dressed up like pirates, got tattooed up, and boarded a pirate ship.  Once on the ship, they had to find a message in a bottle, shoot water canons at a bad pirate, and find a buried treasure.  We did all that while sailing on a really cool pirate ship in the Chesapeake.  I think the adults had just as much fun as the kids!
 
Getting his shark tattoo!

And Gracie got a mermaid tattoo - pink, of course!

The one time all day that all four kids were still

Riding the Rails

We spent the day in Lancaster riding on the Strasburg Railroad!  The kids were a little unsure to start.  They were frightened of the load noises and dirty engineers.  But they quickly warmed up and enjoyed the ride!
 

A bit worried



The horn got them everytime!
