It's certainly been a busy couple of weekends. The onset of summer seems to have that effect. At least it gets us out of the house and doing fun stuff!
Last Sunday we went to Joanne and Doug's house for an engagement party for my cousin Shelley. Somehow I managed to not capture a decent picture of Shelley and Adam at this party. I won't make the same mistake at their actual wedding in December.
The weather was nice and the pool was open. The kids were in the water within the first 30 seconds of arrival and, with the exception of a 10 minute break to eat dinner, were in the water for a good 5 hours.
My auntie Mary Lou, mom, and Bessie.
Bruce and Mary Lou.
Heidi and Dan. This is Heidi's glass of wine she gave me to hold while they had their picture taken so of course I had to include it in the picture.
Mom and her favorite doggie Rookie.
A brief break from the pool.
American beauty!
Mason having another cake ball.
My aunts, uncles, and parents!
Joanne and Doug!
Remy takes a break from shaking water on me to get a belly scratch.
Luis felt that Tommy hasn't been properly represented on the blog so we took a few pictures. I call this one "Pensive Tommy."
This is "Princess Tommy" in his favorite princess chair.
This is "Playful Tommy" on Mason's bed. This is his favorite nighttime hangout.
Yesterday the kids had gymnastics and got their medals. Here's Mason getting some instructions from his coach.

A better view of the proud girl.
Later in the afternoon we went over to Heidi's to meet Chelsey's latest edition Eddie. Heidi made a pie for the occasion and then had to follow it up with an emergency trip to Shari's for a non-burned pie.

Here's Chelsey and a sleeping Eddie.
After Heidi's, we took my parents to our new favorite Swedish restaurant Broders. Siena and Luis had some fun playing together.
Here's Yaya with the restaurant in the background.
Well, the kids have 3 days of school left before a busy summer break! Happy week to all!
