Visiting the Tostadas, Cowboys and Labor Day

Ok! So we have the computer back up and running.:) Now for a catch-up post, somewhat.....



A few weeks ago, Uncle Victor and Aunt Kim invited us over for dinner. We live a few blocks away so we walked. We enjoyed a delicious dinner of meatballs, rice with pineaple topping, watermelon and apple juice. It was very yummy! (Thank you Uncle Victor and Aunt Kim!)

Uncle Victor set up a few tables in their front yard so we could all sit together. :)

Timmy loved playing in this car.:) He was so excited to drive it. He took one bite of his dinner and then ran off to do so! I got him back in his seat, only to have the scene repeat itself all over! This happened several times. Finally, he decided that he'd better finish his food or he wouldn't be allowed to leave his seat.:)
After dinner the kiddos headed off to play legos. Something they never seem to tire of.:)

We enjoyed visiting with Uncle Victor and his family again! (It's amazing how fast the little one's have grown!) We were thankful to be able to spend time them and had a great evening.:)



The below set of pictures are from another day and were to cute to pass up!:)
I don't think it's a secret that our boys love to dress up and pretend to be cowboys. So, as usual the younger ones catch on and copy their older brother's example. The result is below:

no violence for this cowboy.........just a ball

Now to jump ahead to Labor day. This year we attended our church's game and barbeque at Murdy Park, once again. Only a few of our family members played softball this year.

This picture was too cute to pass up!:)


We usually spend the rest of the afternoon playing different games like frisbee, volleyball and basketball or relaxing and talking. I did not get any pictures while playing frisbee but, Daddy wanted to use my camera to get a few shots of the vollyball game going on.

talking
a board game

Toward the end of the day, the Pau family hosted a get together at their house with snacks, games and cheesecake. So, we spent the rest of the evening at their home playing "Catch-Phrase" and "4 On A Couch." We had a great time and the latter game provided alot of excitment and laughs for the evening.:) Thank you to the Pau family for such a special evening!
