What have we been up to...

I am getting our pictures up from our long trip to Grandma & Grandpa's. It was a pretty fun, very relaxing trip for us...If Joe didn't get to touch the steering wheel, drive a little, shift the gears, or turn up the music, our drive would be horrible! He is such a boy!
Pax came to visit us on Mother's Day! I have not seen this guy for such a long time, too long! I'm glad we were finally in town at the same time. For those of you who don't know this wonderful guy, he has been my best friend since 7th grade and remained so until I met my Steve. He is so genuine & comes from such an awesome family. I have such fond memories of Pax, most of them include him scoring me touchdowns (I like to think they were for his favorite cheerleader). So glad I saw you Pax & tell Mandy I wish I could have been at her graduation party!
Joe's vacation included lots of r & r!
His freakin awesome Uncle Ben, who happens to be a genuis at Guitar Hero!
His cool buff Uncle JK! Thanks for laying out and letting me talk to myself!
My friend Erin that I've known since junior high and then shared many great cheer memories with and college memories...not only is she absolutely beautiful, she is one of the nicest people I know. I am a little jealous that she can wear anything she wants and it totally works, but when I go to the same store and try on the same thing I want to scream! Erin I love you! Happy Birthday on Saturday!
My friend Megan that I have been friends with since kindergarten! She is so great and I love that when she comes over it's like no time has gone by at all. Joe loves her too, and was following her everywhere trying to tickle her! Poor Megan, he just kept getting her booty! Hurried and get married so that we can have babies that go to kindergarten together!
One of the pros of having parents that own a furniture business...naps are not a problem at the office!
Cousin Max & Aunt Sammy...Thanks for letting Joe borrow your tractor! He absolutely loved it, even when it wasn't moving! You are the best!
We got back from Valencia Thursday and my sister flew in Friday! My birthday morning started out with a wonderful time at church with my boys and Chels and Ben!
We got to go to the 39th floor of Steve's hotel and have some yummy, small, expensive food. Ben was loving the posh feel of it all!
We FINALLY made it across the bridge. Third time is a charm, time 1 we were too late, time 2 it was too windy, time 3 the guy at the bridge was awesome and let us go! It was a pretty scary walk. You wouldn't think so until the bridge starts swaying back and forth and you look down and see water!
We only had to wait for a few minutes to get on it, and Joe was thrilled if you can't tell.
We walked the pier and ate at Boudin, love that place! Joe rode this little horse in the arcade and Ben took a video that I will have to ask for because it is hilarious...later Joe threw up and if I was any type of good mother, I would have been able to tell he wasn't feeling good by the video!

My sista sista is the best and I'm so excited she could come visit, even though it wasn't long enough! She took such good care of Joe and it was a fabulous weekend! Love you love you love you!
