Memorial Day at Aunt K's House

We were invited to invade Aunt K and Uncle Bo's house for Memorial Day weekend. We drove up Saturday morning an spend the majority of the day at the outlets in San Marcos. Miriam could hardly wait for us to get there and I think she called about 15 times before we got to San Antonio. She is so adorable and wanted a play by play of Emerson's activities in the car. I was happy to oblige. Miriam is a joy to be around and she is hysterical!

Sunday morning we went to Community Bible Church in San Antonio and all the kids had a good time. Emerson settled right into her class and was playing up a storm when I picked her up. We had a wonderful lunch on the patio at La Hacienda de Los Barrios. This is Ryan's favorite San Antonio restaurant because they have awesome tortilla soup and an outdoor playground. I even took Emerson over for a few minutes to play.







That afternoon Katie and I took Cameron, Emerson, and Ryan back to their house. We put the babies down for naps and got ready for the party that evening.





Katie and Bo had invited over a few friends from church/work. Ryan was the official greeter at the party and opened the gate for every car that came in.



Bo grilled up beef and bison hamburgers for everyone and mom cooked corn on the cob. The food was terrific as always.









We had a great time visiting with everyone, but one little girl stole the show. Ainslee (who is two weeks older than Emerson) was there with her parents of course. It took the two girls a little while to get the hang of each other, but after dinner they were an unstoppable force. They played and played and played the entire evening. The big kids had a lot of fun too and were all happy to join in with the little ones.









I finally put Emerson in her pajamas and she was still on a roll. You can just see in her face how much fun she was having.
