Memorial Day Party, #2

Not fully recovered from the previous party, but I somehow managed to get my 2nd wind and head over to Pat and Amy's...so glad I did...total blast!  I surely believe I will need an entire week to recover from this...

Memorial Day Party

An excellent day to be outside...not too hot, not too cold!  Food, Fun, Family and Friends...A good time had by all...

Pre Memorial Day HH

With my beach plans out for the weekend, a last minute happy hr is always the right choice to start the fun Holiday weekend!!

PIZZA

Sleepover Fun...

What a day!  Our first FREE aka 'down' Saturday was anything but...9am Ashlee's game...immediately after that was Haylee's game....then it was our turn to volunteer at the snack shack for 2 hours...so by the time we got home it was 5pm...and somehow Ash and her softball buddy remembered that I mentioned 4 weeks ago, of a 'possible' sleepover this w/e...and man do those girls have good memories...so, as promised,  Giana got to sleepover....oh what fun they are having...ah to be young again...:)

BTW, both girls did excellent in their games...esp in fielding and getting the outs...Haylee made an amazing double play too...tagged on girl out 2nd base, then then threw the ball all the way to home plate to get a 2nd person out...awesome job!!!

Now I sit, with my glass of pinot...it's my 'free' day to eat whatever I want...so pizza and fried chix on the menu...oh and wine...did I mention I have WINE...:)

Tomorrow morn the girls' want pancakes and bacon...then I need to rush to grocery store for the weekly groceries...and then we have some more guests (band) over...after all, it is Sunday Funday...:)



Notice where they are 'supposed' to sleep...but...





look closely...by 3am, 3 tiny bodies one by one end up in MY bed...invasion of the bed snatchers



Ashlee's 8th Birthday Partay!

Well, I can say this...they all thought it was going to be a WASH OUT of a day...all week the weather forecasters predicted rain, rain, and more rain for her party...but me and Ash said we are keeping the faith...and sure enough, it turned out to be a nice partly sunny day...!  She had a fabulous day, with lot's of good food, cake, tons of food, a combo sports inflatable with slide, and fun...thank you to our angels above for keeping the rain away!!!!

Sportn' her 'birthday' shirt...
