One Whirlwind Weekend...

Whew! What happened to August???

As we entered September this past weekend, we headed west to visit family. First, we stopped to celebrate Grandma Rosemary's birthday a week (and two days) early. We enjoyed a great lunch at Olive Garden and then visited with her at home. She and the boys watched "The Conspirator" while Tom and I napped. (Pasta makes us sleepy...) Happy 70th birthday to Rosemary on 9/11.

On the way home, we stopped by to see the boys' favorite uncle - Terry. We also celebrated his birthday a little early, too. Every year we try to find the perfect card for him, and this year I was the one to find it. (He loved it!) We also presented him with a literary classic - Kenny Mayne's An Incomplete & Inaccurate History of Sport*. (This book is a MUST HAVE for every sports fan!)

Then it was time to swim...
Blake even worked in a bit of a work out...

Just Kevin's luck, Dawn had purchased this little "boat" on clearance the day we arrived. It was the perfect size for him!

Most importantly, the boys got some quality time in with their cousins and a couple of their friends.It was a great weekend!
