weekend report


friday night featured a seester-cousin-baby slumber party! it was wild and included a ravioli dinner, a little box of hair color, a sundae bar and lots of play time. we even got crazy and stayed up until 1:30!

i spent saturday with these two little darlings and i have but one measly picture to show for it. i put all my energy into just soaking up the moment with these wee little babes. and their mother. and their father. and their big brother. while finn spent the afternoon with oma and grandma great, my day included lots of cuddling and staring and admiring, with a starbucks run with ever capped off with a snail hunt. i could have stayed all week.

we hit up casa de awesome for a lovely saturday night. mom said it was nothing special but i begged to differ. a little grass time, a walk, and then bbq'd tri tip with artichokes, portabellas, brussel sprouts, salad and spuds. it really felt like a spring festival.

sunday funday was back in sacramento and found us celebrating with the trampetti's. finn was in heaven: a buddy to play with and a room full of new and exciting toys - it was like disneyland!

we set off for an adventure and walked to selland's for an early supper. we made a mess, clinked glasses, shushed squawking boys and loved every minute.

we ended the day with a little park visit. could these little profiles be any sweeter?

quite obviously, a full and happy weekend.

saturday.sister.sandwiches.swim


sister e came to visit on saturday! i was so happy to see that sweet face...


we agreed that the pool sounded heavenly, and that a picnic was a must.

so avocado sandwiches it was. my favorite. mama used to make these for me in high school and i have been hooked ever since.

after a quick stop at wally world for noodles...we arrived. and the smile never left my face.


we alternated between lounging with magazines (which never lasted long) and floating in the pool. the water is by far the most comfortable place for this preggo body of mine-true, i have always loved the water, but this is a whole 'nother kind of appreciation. water birth, anyone?


we left the pool right as about thirty young (and screaming) children swarmed in. emily likened it to an "invasion". good thing we left when we did, i am not sure that my once pale skin will ever be the same. i managed to avoid any color on my face, but the rest of my body wasn't so lucky. oh the guilt!

worth it, though, way worth it. thanks for the heavenly saturday sister!
