Aaron & Jenny go to Camp!

I mean, go camping...  :-)

Aaron and Jenny went up north last weekend camping.  They got some rain, but Aaron's new tent kept them dry!  Looks like a pretty place, lots of trees!

Obviously, they went canoeing...Aaron said there were lots of canoe-ers out there...and Aaron had to donate a couple of beers to a flipped over canoe...


AND, of course, they didn't get nice quiet neighbors...oh no, they were across from a bachelor party!  So they decided to join them rather than fight it...so I think they had a late night of partying!  Seemed like they came home with a lot of food, so I wonder how the barbecuing went?? I know they made hobo pie pizzas, said they were good!

This is one of their bach party neighbors...oh yah, with a blow-up doll...nice touch...

Behind the scenes...

Sarah posted pics of the wedding shower she gave this weekend on her blog, and a beautiful shower it was...here are some behind the scene pics.  We are getting much better at this, it all went very smooth - no stress! 

Sarah - decorating with her usual flare! 

James was hard at work sweeping and blowing off the decks for a last minute spotless presentation!

James planting new bushes...what is it with guys and their timing!  We had to make him do these last after all of our other requests!

Diane - in charge of cooking is making a spinach salad here - yum!

Lucy got in on the act...carried around one of the flowers, it made her feel 'perty'.

Sarah & Danielle

Sarah giving the blessing...

which ended quite fast due to the family curse of choking up!

Finally Sarah sits down...buddy Fletcher is right by her side.  (Looking for handouts, I'm sure!)

Thanks Sar for all your hard work!!  It was a great party that Danielle & Gino will never forget!!

It's not ALL about food...

It's all about food and shopping though pretty much!  I just have to tell you that McDonald's Southwest Salad is back!!  I loved this salad last year, it was a great salad to get on the run...but then it disappeared off the menu and I was trying to get Julie to put in a good word to Ronald McDonald for me...BUT, lo and behold it's back!!  Anyway, give it a try, best fast food salad I've had!!   Maybe if more of you would buy it - it would stick around for longer!

Willa Time!

We baby-sat Willa last night while Sarah and James were at a church meeting...she loves her bath and is always such a good girl - we just can't get enough of her!!  She is doing something different every time we see her, mostly we sit around and stare at her and laugh at all her shenanigans.  She definitely has a captive audience when she is here!!

She loves to play with my measuring cups, she'd rather have them than her toys!

Snuggling with Grandpa after her bath...

I think they are scheming up something!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!



We had a delayed Father's Day celebration...Dan had the Flint Art Festival this weekend and didn't get home until late.  We went over to Sarah's to eat leftovers from their dinner earlier today with James' Dad. She learned to make potatoe salad and it was GREAT!!  I'm so glad cuz now I won't get the honor of always making the potatoe salad :-)  

We missed Willa for a pic (she was sleeping), but here's Dan and the kids, and we threw in a picture of Willa to make it complete!

Hope all the Dad's, Grand-dads had a great Father's Day!!
