Time of family and firsts

Last month we had a very special visit from my family. We were all so excited that they were here. It was a time of firsts...
Grammy and Grandpa met Addison for the first time:



First Father's Day golf event:

This was the first time all of them had golfed together. Riley hung in there for 17 out of 18 holes...he was busy with a hotdog during one of the holes.. a little guy does have to eat.
Addison ate her first homemade meatballs and homemade pasta courtesy of Grammy.

Katie had her first crochet lesson from Grammy:

The visit was way too short but we tried to squeeze in as much family time as we could.

My cousin Kristi and her family were visiting CA from Louisiana. I was so happy that we got to see them.

And just for the record: that is not my house that has the Christmas lights on it. But.... that is my kid making the weird faces.
Of course the other BIG first we shared was Addison's first birthday which I will post about in a few days.

Liz, what great pictures! Addison looks like such a big girl. I love her birthday dress. BTW, I'm bummed you've seen your LA cousin. Now you don't have as much motivation to visit the Land of Hurricanes and Oil Spills. Can't wait for the birthday post. : >

I love summer, it's when you can have time to connect with family you havent seen in a while. Great pics, would love to try homemade pasta some day!

I love that you've gotten to share so many firsts lately. It's fun when their firsts are some of your firsts (if that makes any sense at all :-)

Liz, you still owe me a "summer recap" post! And now, you also need to post about the beginning of school. Just sayin'. ; >

Hey Liz! Haven't heard from you in a while. Just wanted to say that I was thinking about you and wondering how you guys are doing.
