WEDDING WEEKEND

This past weekend Jason and I attended the wedding of real good family friend. I have known him since the 3rd grade. We went with my mom and dad and my brother Leo and his wife Shelly. It was fun in so many ways- hanging out with my family-seeing Luis so happy-dancing big and pregnant-and reminiscing with old friends. So anyways I was havingso much fun and didn't get all the pictures I wanted. at least I got the bride and groom, in the middle is grooms bro. Benji(he clearly stated that he does not go by that anymore but I was given permission .his bro. Georgie said the same thing-who unfortunately is not in the picture)beside him is my bro.Leo and his wife Shelly. then the next photo is Benji and his daughter Sophia. When Ben was little my sister and I would not miss a chance to pinch his cheeks(they were so cute) he says the memory has scarred him:] . I was very happy to see he passed them onto his daughter. No pictures of Jason and I and I was all dressed up. oh well.

CROSS COUNTRY

Cecilia, Jesse, and Celestina are doing cross country this year having fun and making us proud. they have each made a personal record. There is a picture of Celestina speeding past me, Jesse, and I found this picture onthe camera Celestina tooke of her ribbon where she placed 6th(she was very proud of her self). Ihave no pictures of Cecilia because I am a bad mom! I have not been to one of her meets. (in my defense they are all far) anyway her last one is Saturday and I plan to be there. Hey I am well aware that I am not up for mother of the year!!
