this post took way too long

Friday the D's M's and W's gathered for one last BBQ before my aunt and uncle move and embark on the condo-life. I shed a couple of tears..... *sniff* Bye house!

My Auntie Laurie...
I aspire to be as good a host as her, she is amazing



Precious Dr. Holly...
who loves me despite my rotten tooth, and joined me and my sis at my place for a sushi making party yesterday! My sis and I were only able to have one wasabi showdown, before the weirdness of the sushi took over my sis's judgement.



Classic Father figure...


The amazing caramel-apple pie my sis and I should not have shared...
(both got bloated and gassy.... too much info? Too bad it's my blog)

The cousins...


The sisters....


Uncle Denis working hard at the grill....
Supper was awesome

My cousin of many unusual talents...
Unicylcing, juggling, juggling things on fire, pro dancing... An all-around very neat guy

Update:

Spending lots of time outside and lovin it. Looking forward to my raspberries!


they still look like little droplets of poop, but....
soon and very soon I said soon and very soon!
soon and very soon, we are going to see the King!
(anyone who knows this song gets a prize)
(Sarah you don't count)

Hair:
A miraculous toy God gave me to play with.
How people can leave their hair the same all the time is beyond me.






Fun at Kinsmen Park


Baby's first boat ride with Grandpa and Daddy!


My son:
Still isn't talking...... at all. Not worried, although it would be nice to hear him speak. He said "YO" today, does this count as a word? Maybe all this time we've been giving him nerd words, maybe he really only speaks "hommie".


My daughter:
Is away at day camp this week with her cousin Isaiah. Today was her first day and she came home with tons to share. She's loving it and is looking forward to the rest of the activities planned for this week.


My hubby:
Rocks.


Me:
So done with this post.
