Wedding Slideshow

Mel and I joke all the time that Iz and Roo will probably end up getting married someday...and wouldn't that be great since the in-laws would all get along so well?!?

.

Yesterday at the pond while snapping pictures and laughing about the future wedding we determined that we'll be able to put together the BEST slideshow of the "happy couple" growing up together!

.

Pictures like these :)

.

.
.

For the record...I have ZERO problem with Iz dating Roo and marrying him....someday....when she's allowed to date....in 35 years or so :)

Ellie - 10 months

Iz and I spent yesterday the same way we spend every Wednesday....hanging out with Ellie at Auntie D's house. I feel so lucky that I get to see Ellie every week since she is at that age that she changes so much even in the short time I don't see her. Today, she's 10 months old! Where did the time go? Seriously?!?

.

She just keeps getting cuter and cuter and cuter!

.
.

She stands up alone now :) I won't be surprised if she starts walking in the next few week - Yipe!

(Iz didn't start walking until she turned one, so a walker this little will be new for me!)

Sitting in a big girl chair.

.
.

She's even old enough for iced coffee!!!

.
.

YUM!

.

Wordless Wednesday: Arrrrrrrrrr!

Look What I Made!

Miss Sassy now has a new place to sleep...made by yours truly :)

.

Now, if I was "with it" I would have pictures of my knitting all through the process but HA! - you should know me better by now. I only have a few snapshots of the finished products. Complete with utter cuteness inside!

Annual Cookout at the In-Laws

Another great year....fantastic people, yummy food and beautiful weather.

.

We definitely missed a couple "Js" who had to work (boo!) but there were a couple "newbies" there who brightened up every body's day!

.

H&I were there with their little guy S who LOVED Kiko! Why was Kiko there, you ask? Because Auntie D and her crew crashed the party, of course! Well...they WERE invited so it was okay :)

.

.

We had to get the sprinkler out to cool off. Iz is holding hands with little R who was only 3 weeks old at last year's get-together.

.
.

Little S...stinkin' cute!

.
.

The Lobstah Cake that K's girlfriend made....AMAZING!!! Thinking it would make a great "Sunday Sweet" on Cake Wrecks :)

.
.
.

More sprinkler fun!

.

.

S was down with the live lobstah...

.
.

....and he was ok with the cooked ones too :)

Chillin' in Iz's Dora chair :)

Auntie D's version of heaven!

North-bound traffic on the way home - thank goodness we were headed SOUTH!

.
.

Today's a busy one at home. The house is WRECKED from a busy weekend, the laundry has piled up and I? I have about 20 lobstah bodies and 4 WHOLE lobstahs to pick :) It's a rough life, but I manage!

.

Happy Monday!
