A belated birthday and an overdue visit

Look at this most adorable little sleeping face.  This is Sage, Shauna's new baby.  We got to watch her one day while Shauna was at work.  She was coming to dinner that evening and Sage couldn't be home alone that long.  Her and Harley bonded and got along really well.  And Sage was just like a little cat, curling up on my lap every time I'd sit down.  Love her!

Not that she slept all day, but since she's a puppy, she needed lots of rest time, especially since we're a much wilder household than she's use to. :)

After dinner, we sang happy birthday to Shauna, even though this was well after her special day.  She celebrated her real birthday in Hawaii, lucky girl. 

We made her favorite cake for her, chocolate cake with mint chocolate chip ice cream in side.  Yum!

And that Friday, our long lost friends, the Mahoney's, arrived!  They moved to Pennsylvania a few years ago and this was a very overdue visit.  First stop, we took the girls to the Birch Aquarium.  Here's Tatum with Julia and Ellie, checking out the starfish.

These three got along beautifully.  So cute!

These two have known each other since birth and have always been such wonderful friends.  No matter the distance, we'll definitely keep this friendship going.

After the aquarium, we headed to Ali's house to enjoy her community pool and have dinner.  Fun!

The next day we checked out the Poway Farmer's market, thought we'd ride the train but the line was too long, so we just walked around the park, checked out the booths, got slushies, and then headed to Rubio's, per Mandy's request. :)

I sure do miss having this girl in town.

Home for some fun and then the Mahoney's went to a pool party with some other friends and took Tatum. 

So I had a date with these boys!  We went to sushi and had a wonderful time walking over to the restaurant and then walking back and checking out all the different houses down below Poway Road.  An adventure!

Sunday we lounged around and then headed to the Bernardo Winery for music and wine. 

The kids loved the open field and this swing.

Then we headed back to the house where we had a BBQ with some of the Mahoney's friends.  Here's our entertainment for the night.  A rockin' girl band!

After a long day, the girls cuddled up and watched a movie.  These three were so sweet together, we'll really miss having them around.

Slumber party fun!  We just hope the Mahoney's will make another trip out here before too long!
