June 2015

It's summer!  We're off to a great start, lots of pool days and a really lovely trip to California.  Here's a round up from last month.

Rozzie napping at Mohican.  Plus my freakishly long looking arm.
 Celebrating Nana's birthday.
 Our California trip!  We headed out to California for Margie and Andrew's wedding "shower and shave."  It was such a wonderful trip.  We all stayed at Liz and David's so Dee and Kassie were sleeping sleep over style in the living room.  The three girls' favorite game was "jump jump jump and fall down on the mattress."
 We had a nice little bachelorette party for Margie - yoga with Devorah and then lunch with Mollie, Kassie, and Liz.  I didn't get many pictures, but here are the little girls decked out in their celebratory flowers for the bachelorette.

The beautiful bride-to-be.

 

My niece, Kassie.  Isn't she a beauty!  Looks just like her mama.



The next day was the main event - the shower.  I made these little favors copied from something I saw on pinterest.

 Margie and Betsy, our hostess, with Mr. Waffles - Traveling Joe, who has a waffle cart and makes coffee drinks. He was a great addition to the party.
 Aunt Stephanie's famous bridal shower centerpiece!
 Cousin playtime
 Toasting the bride and groom - I was really far away trying to prevent Rosalyn from diving in the pool head first, but you get the idea.
 Everybody in the pool!
 Girl talk, poolside
 Mollie getting in the mix
 Sister time

Uncle Sam took many wonderful photos at the party.  Here's a preview shot.  Can't wait to see the rest!


Post pool cupcakes!


And naps.


After the party, we had an amazing visit in San Francsico.  My mother in law added a sun room to her house.  This is the amazing and inspiring flooring that she did herself.  Isn't it incredible?

 Cousin time!
 Me and my niece, Kassie, working on our selfies.
 Rozzie wanted in on the action


 Making tornadoes at the exploratorium
 We spent a night at the Mark Hopkins hotel in the city. It was awesome.  Doesn't Mollie kind of look like a teenager??
 Our sea lion friend. He loved being hosed off by the boat parked at the dock.
 Visiting the submarines that Rosie built
 Best stop of the trip.


 Aquarium at Golden Gate park

 More cousin time.


 United had these therapy dogs at SFO when we left.  The girls were really into it.

 The flight home.  Rozzie slept for most of it thankfully.  The rest of the time, she wanted to sit like this - basically behind mollie, pushing her to the floor.  Needless to say, Mollie didn't really enjoy that idea.
 When we got back to DC, we went to the Giants/Nationals game.  The girls at the entrance to the park, goofing around.
 At the game.  I think Rozzie is a Nats fan.

After the game we went to water play at Yards' Park.  It was really fun.




A couple last shots of Roz - when we left, sweet little Raspberry.


Now we're back - pre-terrible twos.
