Another great weekend!


We had another great weekend filled with family and friends.  It started out on a sad note with Jack's first fat lip.  He tripped and fell into the corner of a wooden chair....resulting in a bloody mouth and fat lip.  So sad!
But things brightened up as we got a babysitter Thursday night for a movie premier of "A Fly in the Champagne"....documentary about the Slater vs Irons rivalry.  Of course I forgot my camera, but we saw Sal Masekela and Andy Irons as well as scored some free Chipotle chips and guacamole and a free Chipotle burrito.  We had fun hanging out with friends sans Jack to kick off the weekend.  

Friday night we drove up to San Clemente to celebrate our friend's Kirk Schilling's 30th birthday at Pizza Port.  After we hung out with the Lundquists to check out their gorgeous new pad in Talega.

We stayed the night at Derek's parents so that Derek could go surfing in the morning, (I had intentions of going running but was too tired) and hit up I Love Bagels.  We then drove up to Newport to meet my parents (and Ty and Kathy) who are in town for the week.  Derek had an appointment up in L.A. so Jack and I hung out with everyone with a boat ride around the harbor and strolling Fashion Island.  I love it up there and am excited to go stay up there this week for a few nights!

Did you know they filmed Gilligan's Island here??

Sunday my parents came down to our ward, had the Bills favorite meal of mashed potatoes and roast beef, and then took the kids on a wagon ride down to the beach. It was a bit chilly and Jack wanted more than anything to run around, play in the sane and the water, so we can't wait for some warmer days!

Love the picture of Derek holding Jack. What a fun weekend. You have been so spoiled having your parents out so much! Who knew about that island. Interesting, makes sense though considering they probably didn't have much money to film anywhere cooler. Sad fat lip! Plenty more will come...sadly.

ok a couple of funny things here....

first of all andrew did the exact same thing. he tripped and fell into the corner of our wooden kitchen table chairs. fat lip...blood everywhere. it was so sad!

second of all....the year before you moved into the avenues kirk schilling was randomly in that ward. i am friends with his sister sammy. anyways, we were at a ward activity and having a balloon toss. i still to this day do not know what happened. but all i know is he threw a water balloon pretty much as hard as he could at my head (probably not on purpose) and i literally fell over and almost passed out. looking back on it it was so funny, but at the time i was like what the.... he felt really bad! small world! i still am in love with your dark hair!
