This weekend

We had a busy weekend and we fit a lot of things in. On Friday evening we headed to Walnut Creek to stay at Mary and Jeff's (my sister and her hubby's) place. It was the first time we were able to see their new house so that was fun. It was a great stopover on our way to the rest of the weekend. We went down to Oakdale for my cousin's wedding on Saturday and on to Turlock to visit Kristen (my college roommate) and her family.

Here's Mary and Jeff's first picture together on their front porch before we left for the wedding....

And of course my kiddos wanted to be in a picture with Uncle Jeff and Auntie Mary....

My cousin Tiffany Giacomini married Dennis Holmes in Oakdale on Saturday. The weather was perfect, the ceremony was very nice, and the bride looked beautiful. Abigail was very well behaved during the wedding (it was a Catholic Mass)... J.T., well not so much! Good thing he had his little tractors to play with during the ceremony.

Here's J.T. sitting at the table during the reception... doesn't he look guilty of something????

Abigail was so in awe of Tiffany... can you see her in the lower left corner of the picture looking on as Mary congratulates Tiffany?

Abigail and J.T. were so excited that they got to have their picture taken with the bride....

And finally I got a picture of the happy couple! Congrats to Tiffany and Dennis!

Look at the cute wedding favors they had on the tables....

Abigail wanted to have some cake so badly but we had to leave before the cake was cut. She settled for having her picture taken with it.

After the wedding we headed to Turlock to stay with Kristen and her family. All four kids got up early this morning to play and had a great time playing together. Here's Mika and Abigail in the princess dress up clothes.

From left to right: J.T., Kylie, Abigail and Mika.....

After we got home tonight, we asked the kids what their favorite part of the weekend was... both kids said playing with Kylie and Mika. I guess we will have to get together more often! Thanks to Kristen and Corey for letting us stay!

Lots of fun things happening in less than 48 hours! You guys must have really been on the move! Thanks for sharing all the pictures. The one of the 4 kids is adorable and so very color coordinated. We'll have to take Abigail to a nice bakery and get a sweet treat to make up for missing out on the wedding cake. I always love the cake at weddings too! Happy Presidents' Day to all of you. See you in March!
