The Party

Since I last posted, all of the out of town visitors arrived and we had quite the little party here at our digs. It was really a ton of fun and for being such a mix of relatives and friends, I think everyone mingled well.

Christian, Dad and I went to pick up Julie, John, Liv, Maddie and Thomas at the airport. That was super fun for Christian. He loves the entire ride, tunnels, tolls and train spotting to boot. Then it's just super cool for him, once we are actually at Logan. They arrived no problem and we headed home.

When we got back, Justine, Julie and Lily had already arrived with Aunt Marige and Uncle Dick. It was wonderful to see Justine again and to finally meet and put a face with Julie and Lily after hearing about them for quite a while. Julie was really nice and Lily extremely cute - they all seem so happy together!

Slowly but surely everyone came and the afternoon was fun, despite a bit of rain mid-afternoon. The kids all played well together and had a chance to go in the pool with Justine (despite her saying how cold it was), then the hot tub.

I posted a bunch of photos, of which I have tons more. I love our family parties because there is always so much going on, lots of laughter and joy and lots of little jokes. This time around I especially enjoyed one joke between Uncle Kevin and Chris.

More pics to come of our visit with J & J and J & J on the Cape.
