What a great weekend!

Friday- yes...we watched Step Brothers. Vince and I were laughing so hard and we are still laughing. Go see it and laugh your butt off. It was great. Cleaned, got ready for Saturday's dig and had a few of the Costa Rica girls over for snow cones.

Saturday- FULL HOUSE. Everyone and their 1st grade teacher came over. It was a good time. A lot of people had snow cones (Vince's aunt Marty had 3- she has the record). Lots of good people to see, even a friend of mine from high school stopped by. Sofia loved the pretzels, snow cones, and the pizza. She loved having everyone over and took advantage of eating all the good stuff around. Vince's aunt and two cousins stayed with us. They are on a road trip from the Detroit, Michigan area to Albuquerque, New Mexico. The oldest of the two boys, Aaron, will be stationed in San Diego with the Navy so they are doing a family trip to see the family.

Sunday- Took Aunt Teresa, Aaron, and Adrian (for the record... such a sweet name) to mass at the Brothers of St. John and loved it. We had lunch at Joe's Crab Shack by the river. I had Coconut shrimp, Vince had a medley of seafood, and Sofia had mac & cheese along with some of our stuff. We walked around the riverfront and enjoyed the view. It's so funny because Aaron and Adrian can't get over the fact that there is so much corn around here. "So, you guys just watch the corn grow here?" Yeah... I guess ;)


After walking around the riverfront, we went to Vince's dad's (Sam) place to hang out. We mostly talked and Vince got a horse shoe game started and then they played Bocci Ball. We had to leave because the mosquitoes/bugs were eating us. Aaron even got a reaction from something out there. What an adventure.

We came home and shared pictures... Aaron was in New York for 6 months for training and we got to see pictures of that. We shared pictures of our wedding and Sofia. We finally went to bed around midnight. It was a great evening... we have really enjoyed having them over. Too bad they live so far away. Here is Aaron, Adrian, and Sofia having a great time together. Sofia just loves her cousins.
This morning, everyone's sleeping but me... go figure. We have to take the snow cone machine back today... it's a sad day. Vince's is on vacation this week and we will be leaving for St. Louis Wednesday morning for our grand family vacation. We are all looking forward to that. We are camping at my parents new place.... yes camping... with a real tent in their living room because they have not moved their furniture there. We are looking forward to it.

A tent in the living room? Really? Are you doing smores in the fireplace, too? I hope you don't run into Bigfoot!
