It is time for yet another catch up post! I imagine that these will slow down drastically once the summer ends and people start to slowly but surely trickle out of here-but until then this will be our format!

As always, we have had a full house around here. We have been able to enjoy a get together with family on my Mom's side, and a few visits with my Dad's side. We have also enjoyed lots of time w Lester's family, both in the house and other places. Places like basketball games, downtown SF exploring Hyde St. Pier and other places. It has been wonderful. We were even able to make the near impossible happen-for the first time since around 2004 we were able to have all five of us kids [plus those who have been added to the family since] back home to do family pictures! I love them, and will share some here. But it just goes to show how life will be for the next several years since they are already outdated as you will see shortly.









So far the best thing that has happened has been spending time with out new perfect little niece, Audrey! After lots of hard her work, time and effort on her Momma and Daddy's part she has finally joined us and we couldn't be happier to spend these few precious weeks with them before they head back to school. She is little bitty thing and makes Addy look like a giant even though she is just a few months older then her. She squeaks and cuddles enough to make your heart burst and we all love her and her parents so much!
