Fun With Family

Monday the 15th Hope and her girls (Abigail and Alice) came down for an overnight visit. They helped me decorate a cake for dessert, and we had a lot of fun playing games with them. When Peter got home, I got dinner ready while game time continued. I think Disney Bingo was the favorite.

Alice is there in the background. She and Hope helped decorate the cake too. Clearly I need to get the camera out more.

Abigail loves her toothbrush. She was so excited to come out and demonstrate how it works.

Tuesday, after Peter left for work, the rest of us went for a walk. (Did I remember to bring the camera?) I even took Molly and Jispy. We all went to the park near our house, and the girls had fun playing on the playground. We have a little spike that we twist into the ground to anchor the dogs so we don't have to hold onto them the whole time. It was a very relaxing morning.

For lunch Peter was able to meet us at Sharkey's for Pizza and a buffet. We had a great visit, and hope they all come again soon.

Saturday was Alice's b-day, so we packed up Molly and headed north. Here she is opening her card from us with a gift card to Build-A-Bear. Now she can get more outfits for her kitty that she built recently.

Alice loves kitties so Hope found this great cake idea. All week Alice was saying she was having a poop cake. It was very cute.

We loved visiting everyone in Fillmore. We stayed the night up there and were able to give Pop his Father's day gift in the morning. Hope and the girls came over too with their gifts for him. Spring and Brian have been working diligently on their home, and making improvements, etc. It is coming along very nicely. For church, went on to One At A Time church and are so bummed to have forgotten to bring in the camera once again. Levi came too and I'm sure it was special for Pop to have both his sons there for Father's Day. They also had about 15 or so visitors from Texas, who are on a missions trip to help out in Downtown L.A. for the week. It was a great service, and nice to have such a full house for the Lord's day.

After Church we went to Tracy's parent's house to celebrate Father's Day and her mom's b-day with them. We had a blast playing in the pool with the niece and nephew.

Even Grandma Pat got in, which is very rare.

Jon and Steph brought these water guns for the "kids" to play with in the pool. We all had a blast using them.

Mom and Dad Z in the jacuzzi.

Mom and Grandma Pat. Just thought this was a cute shot of them with their hats on.

Mom loves Stargate SG-1, so this year we got her season 6.

It was a very fun but exhausting weekend.

Even Molly would agree with that. She slept most of the way home. That doesn't look like a comfortable position to me, but when I took the jar of honey away, she looked sad, so I put it back.
