Singing in the Rain

Marie and Bob get married

The beautiful bride and groom!  One of the lovelier weddings I've been to - Marie and Bob got hitched!  We had a wonderful time - especially seeing cousin Marie so happy!  

 Mollie was being a little shy, but she had a great time (especially eating all the delicious wedding snacks)

 Goofing around pre-wedding.

New York Trip

Last weekend we went to New York for my cousin Marie's wedding.  Here are some pictures from the dinner we had after the wedding.  Mollie testing out Nana's glasses.

 Lady trying them out.

 "Here, let me help you with that."

 Enjoying some ice cream dessert (she basically licked the bowl shortly after this)

Quick update

A couple quick pics from summer.  Many more to come!

Los Angeles and Disney!

We just got back from a wonderful weekend in Los Angeles.  First we went to see Auntie Mimi's art on display in the Hammer museum.  We weren't really allowed to photograph the art, but I snuck one picture.  If you're in LA, check out the exhibit, it's really cool!

 Mollie climbing rocks in little Tokyo.

 After the art show, we went to Disney.  On the first night, we had a character themed dinner at Goofy's Kitchen.  It was a really long wait, but it was worth it.  Here's Mollie entertaining herself while we wait for a table.

 Grandpa David getting in on the action.

 At long last, our photo op with Goofy!

 And now the real fun begins!  Dale...

 Cinderella's fairy godmother

 Minnie - by far Mollie's fave.

The next morning we went to the park.  We got there at 8 in an attempt to execute a plan Louie had mapped out before hand.  We were successful in getting to Peter Pan and the Dumbo ride with minimal wait times, but after that, we got diverted to the Princess visiting area where we waited in line for over an hour to meet Snow White and Sleeping Beauty.  Mollie felt it was totally worth it :)

 But her favorite characters were Tinkerbell and Tink's friend, Videa.  I don't even know who Videa is, but she's apparently a very sassy fairy who has lots of attitude and wears purple...

We had a wonderful trip - although it didn't feel nearly long enough!

It's Summer!

The pool is open and no one is happier about that than Mollie.  Here she is modeling her new suit.

Water baby playing in the fountain in Georgetown.

 And a couple of pictures from our trip to Philly this weekend, more to follow.  Riding the zoo train.

 She seriously loved the Philadelphia Zoo.  Especially these adorable baby ducks.

Mother's Day and Mama's Birthday

On Saturday, while I lived a day of luxury (yoga, pedicure, brunch, hair cut, shopping, dinner at CityZen), my parents watched Mollie and took her to Glen Echo Park.  She had the best time playing with them and sleeping over.  Here she is riding the carousel over and over.

Apparently this photo has some back story which is that this is the end result of a negotiation with another kid about this toy Mollie wanted to play with.  These are their victory faces - HA!

They look to be having a good time with their success :)

Mollie is finally warming up to Mac.  Apparently she spent a good part of the weekend chasing him and saying "boo" and tickling him and playing with their big beach "matzoh" ball.  

 On Sunday we picked her up and opened presents.  Mollie had a great time saying "oooh" and "that's cuuuute"about each and every present.  Pretty adorable.

 Sunday afternoon we had brunch with my family + Jenny who was visiting us from out of town.

 Mollie was a great helper with the birthday candle!
