Brunch and Baseball

I've been getting a little behind on my posts! On Memorial Day weekend we had Jack, Katie and Brooke over for brunch. After pigging out we let the kids loose on the play structure in our front (soon-to-have-grass-again!) yard.

Nikos and Brooke pose at the top. These kids are trained so well. Kind of like show ponies.

I love how excited Brooke is in these next to shots. Click on them and enlarge them if you can!

Show pony #1 expertly scoots down the slide.

Show pony #2 exhibits an astonishing lack of control.

On Memorial Day we headed out to my parents house to celebrate my mom's birthday.

Grammy poses with her three granddaughters.

The three middle kids wait calmly for their summer ribs.

Once again Mel displayed her culinary genius with some sunflower cupcakes for Mom's birthday.

Kira and Nikos were big fans.

Mel brings her cupcakes, I bring my cherry mojitos. You decide the talent in the family...

Outtakes from the latest cousins picture.

The photo shoot was followed by an impromptu cousins baseball game. Mel's blog has a video of the action.
