Weekend fun!

So much fun to be with family! Nothing beats family time! Especially family you havent seen since Christmas. We had a mini-family reunion with Evans parents and siblings this weekend. We enjoyed our time together. The main reason for our gathering was because our nephew Kai was getting baptized. It was a great thing to witness.

Fun with the kids {never a dull moment}

Lego Time!

                                      It was so nice to see Colee and the boys. We missed seeing Tyler.

Must be Friday

Thank goodness!

I used Evan's toothbrush this morning instead of mine....he might love me for that!

What a way..

to spend a Thursday! For the record, I do not know this man, but I was people watching and couldn't help but snap a photo of this picturesque moment...why didn't I get so ingenious during my pedicure?? I think he has done this before..thats just my personal opinion..

Dogs

There is just something about them that makes you {me} always laugh. They have such a bright spirit. They don't judge you, but love you. They don't like you sad, they comfort you. They just love to be loved and really who wouldn't love these guys..

                    A person who has never owned a dog has missed a wonderful part of life--Bob Barker

                 A dog is the only thing on this earth that loves you more than he loves himself--Josh Billings

 Dogs have given us their absolute all. We are the center of their universe. We are the focus of their love and faith and trust. They serve us in return for scraps. It is without a doubt the best deal man has ever made.
                                                                     --Roger Caras

                            Dogs love company. They place it first in their short list of needs--J.R. Ackerley

There's a saying. If you want someone to love you forever, buy a dog, feed it and keep it around--Dick Dale

       My dogs forgive anger in me, the arrogance in me, the brute in me. They forgive everything I do before I   
                                                          forgive myself--Guy de la Valdene

             Dogs are, after all, man's best friend. The least we can do is try to understand them a little better
                                                                   --Nicholas Dodman

                            Agreeable friends — they ask no questions, they pass no criticisms--George Eliot

      The great pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold
                                           you, but he will make a fool of himself too--Samuel Butler

Memorial Day Fun

We all hung out at Tony & Michelle's house. We had a BBQ and went swimming. We also celebrated Nadia's belated birthday {she is 8 going on 16}. We had such a blast together. Loved playing with the girls in the pool. I even had Sage & Jade in the pool for a little bit. This Memorial Day made for many memories and much to be grateful for.

The Game of Sardines

Summary: Sardines is like the game Hide-and-Seek, only in reverse! one person hides, and the rest of the players look for the one hidden person. When someone finds the hidden person, they quietly join them in hiding — after a while, the group begins to look like sardines!

We had so much fun playing this game. It was funny trying to keep quiet when someone passing by rips a big fart not knowing anyone is in the room to hear it or someone in the group of sardines hiding lets out a silent stinky one and everyone in the group is trying to contain themselves from giving away the hiding spot.
