Memorial Day Weekend -- Part 2

On Saturday we had a big gathering with my mom's side of the family. 5 of the 6 grandchildren were there, and 9 of the 13 great-grandchildren (little did we know that great-grandchild #14 would be born the next day!! We can't wait to meet you, Blake!)

The weather was great, and the kids had a blast running all over the yard chasing bubbles. Thanks, Mom, for all your hard work in putting the party together! We had so much fun seeing everyone.

Tessa with her Great-Grandma (my Grandma).

My lame attempt at getting all 9 kids together in one shot. Guess who wasn't interested!? From L-R: Tessa, Sandhya, Ella, Reese, Jaiden, Ethan, Chase and Jacob (with Calder in background). All of them are age 6 or younger!

Tessa models her watermelon picnic dress. (What else??)

Reese, the happy happy birthday girl.

Ella chases giant bubbles!

Serious bubble discussions.

Chase and Ethan

Ethan almost gets a mouthful!

By the end of the night, Calder, Reese and Sandhya had discovered a pile of dirt and rocks that occupied them for well over an hour. Calder kept running over to the adults and declaring "I'm so dirty!" then running back to the pile to rub more dirt all over his body. It was cute, but I really hope it doesn't become a trend!
