Exciting week

Well, it's been an exciting week around here. Alex flew in on Monday for a quick 2.5 week visit. She's so busy this summer that we're lucky to get at least this much time with her! Mike picked her up and took her to her requested lunch spot - Machismo Burrito Bar (one of my favorites...I was working so I just got PB&J on the fly). We went over to the Molnars for a Memorial Day BBQ. It was a great day to be outside and we had so much fun. After our feast of grilled lamb, chicken, baked potatoes, etc we still made room for ice cream cones...then we topped it off with MORE sweet treats by loading up and heading to Rita's Italian Ice & Frozen Custard. How gluttonous are we?

On Tuesday Mike was back to work so Alex, Nate, and I headed out on a shopping excursion that landed us at Lynnhaven Mall. We got an unexpected treat when Mike called and said he took the night off and we had tickets to go see the Tides game. Yea! Nate's first baseball game! It was an absolutely gorgeous night for a game - really, we couldn't have asked for better weather. Nate dozed a bit but made it to the 9th inning. We had a wonderful night of togetherness and of course - ballpark food. Alex even tried the fried Snickers bar and reported that it was "terrific". Yumm-o!

Happy Birthday to Michelle on the 27th! We love you!

Mike and I celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary yesterday. We had a good day and had family dinner at one of our favorite places, Spaghetti Eddies, which I'm sure I've raved about on this blog before.

Here are a few new pictures to keep everyone oohing and awwing over how magically delicious Nate is! :) And yes, I KNOW I'm a dork.
