What a weekend!

So Brad woke up at 2AM Sunday morning to this..... his next door neighbor's house on fire! Can you believe it? He grabbed the girls, woke his in-laws, got out of the house and waited for the fire dept. to arrive. The car you see in the photo is Brad's parked in front of his garage. It even made the local news! Needless to say, they were all really tired when they arrived for dinner. And sweet Gabi couldn't stop talking about the fire at her house...as well she should! The paint on the outside of her bedroom window was all bubbled from the heat of the fire! YIKES!!!

We celebrated Vanessa's 24th Birthday with a little tri-tip and carrot cake. She had just returned from a girls trip to San Diego and her flight was delay so it all happened a bit later than planned. We had some hungry babies but MOST of the group (with the exception of a certain redhead) was happy to wait for the Birthday Girl to arrive. We LOVE our Vanessa!!!

In spite of all the excitement, the littles had a great time together.

They always do!

These cousins are destined to all be the best of friends!

In fact, even the "adults" were inspired to try some of their old "stunts". Chris and Brooke still "have it" after all these years! Who knew??? Do they have a Super Senior stunt team??

All in all, a fun Sunday...and we count our blessings that Brad and family are all ok!
