Memorial Day Weekend

We had a fun filled weekend that started with a BBQ at our friends Dave and Jill's house on Saturday. Their daughter Ramey, Tatum and Adrian and Mandy's daughter Ellie all enjoyed the bounce house. Tatum hasn't stopped talking about this. :)

The girls get along so well and loved playing together on the swing set...

and the play house. Such sweet girls we have.

They even got to eat dinner at their own table!

And the night wouldn't be complete without delicious chocolate frosted cupcakes, yum! Tatum demonstrated how to eat a cupcake without hands. Not sure why this was important. Either she didn't want to get her hands dirty or she was practicing up for apple bobbing in the fall.

Sunday brought another BBQ at a dog park in La Jolla where Tatum enjoyed bubble blowing with Dana, kite flying with Mommy and playing at the park with Daddy. Such a wonderful day!

While the girls hung out with the babies and talked...

The boys had a beer shot gunning contest. I am proud to say my husband tied for first. Their must be a plaque I can get for that right? :)

Tatum loved hanging with the boys and chatting. They all needed a rest after the touch football game. And I don't have a picture of it but everyone brought their dogs to enjoy the dog park. Harley's never had so much exercise in his life! He's still sleeping from the day of fun. :)

And yesterday was pretty mellow so we decided to check out the Birch Aquarium in La Jolla for the first time. Tatum loved all the fish and sea horses but enjoyed the current table most of all. Here she is trying to figure out how to maneuver her little boat in the current.

The day was a bit chilly down at the beach but the view was beautiful and the surfers were out.

It was nice to be together since we'd been apart the prior week or so due to the leak. We had a wonderful family weekend!
