a few weeks ago i got a call. it was
jon. he, carrie and baby lucas would be in town (from hb, ca) for work the 17th-19th. i planned a family
dinner wednesday, and we all got together for great food and even better company. we all got to meet 7 week old,
lucas, and love on him. and i did get a tad bit baby hungry.

tilley wasn't having it. she freaked out when i held him, she was super
jealous, it was funny. i had to hide to get my fix. the rest of the night, she was passed around, like a little princess. she didn't like one bit that there was a new kid getting all the attention.


we had home made
cafe rio salads, better than the real thing. and then had parker's
home made ice cream, with maile's home made
hot fudge, and ben's home made
waffle bowls....topped with nuts and whipping cream. imagine that. then we
swam and
visited.


and as we were pulling into the house, i almost ran over this little
froggy, hopping across the dirt road. quinicy, of course, jumped out of the car and rescued it. gag.
