summer weekends

Some pictures from this past 4th of July weekend and my family's reunion the weekend before it.

On the way back from the reunion, I stopped to visit Allison and her Mom, while her sister, Paige, and her Dad were at a Yankees game.


Allison and her Mommy

The 4th of July weekend, Ted and I both went back to see them and enjoy a beautiful, sunny, and not-too-humid Sunday afternoon.


Allison is stylin'


Paige winks

As you might be able to guess, Paige loves to pose for the camera. She also loves to take pictures. If I put all the combined photos here, it would be a very long slide show!

Meanwhile, a couple states away, our little friend, Alia, has been on vacation with her parents, grandparents, and aunt and uncle this week.


Alia's cool driving the boat

And finally, a couple pictures from today, so Woodle's real Mommy (who also happens to be Alia's Mommy) can see how he's doing.


Woodle sees something he likes on a bookcase... check out that tail!


On the bookcase, casing Mike Wazowski

By the way, a couple hours later -- after hearing a loud crash -- I discovered that Woodle had apparently returned to this location to pull Mike Wazowski down off the bookcase.

Enough pictures for now. Funny how I go a whole week without posting anything and even put a comment to that effect on last night, and then I come in 24 hours later and load up on photos! This blogging thing is weird, man. Goodnight!
