Memorial Day Weekend and Mini Family Reunion

My grandma and Aunt decided to visit us in May from Maine. Erica and Kristen then decided to come over with their families from Oklahoma so they could see them and us as well. It was a busy week for me when they came. I had my Spanish final and it was the last week of the best special of the year and my work, but we partied so much to make up for the hectic week. I haven't had that much fun in a while. I hadn't seen my grandma since Kristen and Jason got married and my Aunt since before I got married.
Here is Jason, my Aunt Barbara, my grandma and Kristen at Jessica's Park in front of her house on Memorial Day. We had a BBQ and eveyone was able to see Jessica's and Peter's new house while they were visiting.
My niece, Madi was having a great time with her cousins playing in the sand.

Even Ethan attempted to play Football.




Not only did the little kids enjoy the park but Jaime was able to show off his skills on the equipment.





His feet are so close to the sand. But he made it across.






Andrew woke up from his nap and came out to play with everyone.







Tyler is a dare devil when he plays.








Ethan was so excited to have Aunt Kristen slide down with him.









My dad took family pictures of everone on Sunday since we were all together in one State.










Jaime and I.











Kristen and Jason.












Jessica, Peter, Ethan and Tyler.













On that Sunday we invited my dad's cousin and his daughter who live in Carlsbad to dinner, so they could see my grandma and Aunt while they were in town.














Jaime says that Eliza is the most melow baby he has seen and I have to agree. We think all our nieces and nephews are so adorable. We went to Torrey Pines Beach on that Saturday, which is the best beach is San Diego.

Madi's dad says she is my "mini me." Madi just turned 6 in April.




















I hardly recognized Eliza was I saw her. Her hair was dark brown when she was a newborn last July.
