I'm taking a break from Italy for a couple of days to catch up on our REAL LIFE!
We went up to Big Bear Lake to visit with my friend, Connie's family, and see all the kids.
Present were Connie, and her dad, Frosty; Corey, Chaudra, and their daughters Cadence and Cheira, Casey and Sarah and their boys, Noah and baby Gabe; and Connie's niece and nephew, Melanie and Brian. Brad and I joined in the fun. When we arrived, they were launching the boat:


We bonded with 3 month old Gabe:



We brought some sand toys and big rubber balls for the little kids, but it was the BIG kids who started a game of "kick the ball into the rubber dinghy".

Noah had fun with the bigger kids, and with Luigi!



Cadi enjoyed the spa, and is ready for first grade!

I fixed dinner for the whole gang before we drove home. It was a great day!

Was outta town again & just read about your trip to BB. I am so glad I can call you "Family" (sister-Godmother-friend). Loved our day together and thank you for another fabulous home-cooked meal. What blessings!!!!
