Martha's Vineyard!

Okay, so I am FINALLY posting the pictures of our great trip to Martha's Vineyard! I've had some technical difficulties with Blogger so sorry!! Also, please take a look at my blog in a few days because I promise I have a couple of great posts coming up....Elijah's First Birthday and Halloween!!

Here is Jordan in Martha's Vineyard the night of the JP show. He was such a great helper!

Cary and Jack also did a show overlooking the water during an awesome clambake. It was a gorgeous day and a fun way to spend the afternoon!

This is Jack and his sweet girlfriend Krista.

Jack and Cary's Mom, Sandra

Here's the JP poster outside the Whaling Church where they performed. It's next to a poster for Ben Taylor (James Taylor's son) who performed there the next night.

It's hard to capture how cool this venue was, but it was so up-close and intimate. Everyone there was obviously a huge fan, because they stood up and applauded after almost every song, not to mention it was 450 plus people that came from hundreds of miles away (a plane ride and a ferry ride for most) to get there.

Jordan and Marisol (our niece) at the show.

After the show at the Harborview Hotel.

This is a picture of Jaron and Elijah during bathtime right before the show. We had a babysitter come stay with them in the room because it was gonna be past their bedtime. The sitter was AWESOME, and they were so happy with her. This is a picture of the two of them in the bathtub right before I left to go out. Incidentally, they also had just had a major meltdown!! So I guess the bath calmed them down and they were happy!

Here are several attempts at a family picture on the Vineyard. Along with the 5 Pierces, my Mom came, and so did my sister Kim and her husband Jim!

John and Joa Muns (my aunt and uncle) came too!

Here is my aunt Joa trying to bribe Jaron with candy so he would smile for the pictures.

Jaron and Daddy swimming!

Jim with Elijah!

Cary's parents, sister, our brother-in-law, and niece came too, and here we are spending time with them at the beach!

Elijah enjoyed his first trip to the beach!

Lissa, Marisol, and Elijah!

Jaron spent a lot of time trying to collect seashells. Also, he tried to catch a seagull after one swooped down and snatched up his peanut butter and jelly sandwich!

Jordan on the beach

Jaron and Marisol playing in the water!

Building sandcastles

Elijah liked the sand toys too!

Mimi with Jaron after a fun seaside dinner at the fish market in Menemsha. This is one of Cary's Dad's favorite places to eat, and it's awesome.

Elijah in his little beach hat

Isn't this the best picture ever!? He looks like a little naked cherub floating in the sky!

Jaron and Cary walking around in Edgartown

Both little boys fell asleep in the stroller as we took walks in Vineyard Haven and Oak Bluffs.

Jaron on the beach with a smile :) Didn't need candy for that one.

It was the most beautiful view outside our hotel with this lighthouse.

Marisol and Elijah at the playground where Sandra and Dick (Cary's parents) stayed. We had several GREAT evenings there playing on the playground and eating dinner.

Marisol gave Elijah this little boat.
