A lovely day for a picnic in the park

Yesterday (Sunday) we had a small gathering of family, my 2 best friends, their spouses and children for a picnic in the park to celebrate Abby and my Dad's birthdays. (Happy Birthday today Dad!)

Josh was the grillmaster and cooked up some yummy hot dogs and cheeseburgers. I enjoyed an iodine-inclusive meal....yum! We played bean bags, bocce and just enjoyed hanging out. Abby got some cool new Barbie stuff which she has been playing with nonstop since we got home and a beautiful bracelet made by Rob.

Josh's birthday/Guys birthday party

I've been meaning to post these, but kept forgetting. Pictures from Josh's 30th birthday and the combined birthday party we had for Josh and Evan.

Abby's tea party

Since Abby has been working so hard in therapy to get that leg working again, I felt we needed to do something special for her.  So Saturday, Josh and I threw her a surprise tea party at our house.  Josh made some yummy treats for the party and of course we had tea.  Surprisingly both my children like to drink tea. 

Our guests were Grandma, Aunt Joan and of course Aunt Cassandra who the kids both call "Ahh".  

We made tea hats to wear during our tea which was a lot of fun.

When drinking tea, remember ladies...pinky out.
