{Cherry Hill Fun}

We got Cherry Hill passes again this year.  We didn't get to go as often as we wanted because sweet little Lily P.  hated the water, so every time we went, I had to just stand with her in my arms.  We still had a great time when we went though.  In August, Mandy, Adrians sister stayed with us for a few days and we were able to go with her.  The kids were in HEAVEN!  They sure love their Aunt Mands.  :)
