Fun in the Sun....

The views were breathtaking...from every angle and from every corner of our favorite annual vacation spot, the island of Martha's Vineyard. From the lighthouse in Aquinnah (taken from wrap around roofdeck of our uncle's palace by the sea) to the passing schooner, to the sunset after an incredible day at the beach--each beautiful picture represents the absolutely wonderful time we had on our first vacation this summer.
While island residents, we celebrated Father's Day and of course, Princess Abigail's birthday! :)
We think she was happy to celebrate in the 'special house'
We played in our pool.....
We went to the beach...a lot! :)

We kayaked....
Did some luxurious swinging on our porch swing.....
Went on mysterious hikes through the marshes/forests/beaches on the island....
Visited with our awesome relatives, the Ranallis....
Visited the permanent home of a particular comedic celebrity....
Rode the oldest platform carousel in the world....Attended (and made several purchases at) a craft and artisan fair at the artist compound on the island....
....and walked on the beach, of course, at sunset....holding hands, no less!
All in all, a STELLAR start to the Summer of 2011...
Hello sunshine and warmth!
