Big Wheels 2010

What is Big Wheels?  In short, a bunch of adults racing not just Big Wheels but modified Big Wheels.  The first Big Wheel races were held in 2008.  This year they returned- with a vengeance!  Chris spent hours and hours (and money!) on his Big Wheel.  We are very proud of his third place finish!!

Team O’Brien was represented with T shirts, face paint and spirit!  Aidan got to start the races and even raced his plasma car against the winners!

Pictures and video are available on Facebook!

Nothing better than a day on the Cape

We ventured down to Wellfleet to see Uncle Richard and Jim.  It is so beautiful there!  The boys loved the water.  We even saw a famous neighbor’s house!!!

Aidan was concerned about the lack of cross walks and used some twigs to create a cross walk- to be safe.  Aidan also tried to find acorns to plant a tree- directly blocking the beautiful view.

Brendan on the other hand loved the seaweed.  But was not fond of the dogs we met swimming.

Our perfect day ended with a cookout.  Absolutely perfect.

Summer Birthdays!

Lots to celebrate in August (and early September)- Grandpa’s birthday, Josh’s birthday, Daddy’s birthday, Mommy’s birthday (Aidan’s half birthday eve) and Grandma’s birthday!  Lots (and lots) of cake and fun family celebrations!
