The Party

On Saturday, June 13th we had a pre-graduation celebration party for Emily, and a 50th birthday party for my dad. It was also a late first birthday party for Zuri . Before the party, we played in the park. Zuri's favorite activity is swinging! She loves the free-falling sensation; I think that she is going to love amusement parks. Below are Travis pushing Bradley, and Madeline pushing Zuri.

This is the cake for the party. "Grandpa" is my dad, and "Lil Josh" is Zuri because she looks just like her daddy. My grandma likes to call her J Jr. It's hilarious.

My childhood best friend, Chantal, came to the party with her husband and four kids. We get together as often as possible with living over 600 miles apart. J is posing with her children: Kaylie, Maddie, Bradley, and Brianna. Hmmm...portent of things to come? ;-)Maddie smiling for the camera! Chantal's husband, Travis, is sitting with Bradley.

Chantal with Zuri. She was chewing on something and didn't want to let it go.

Zuri sitting with her great-great Aunt Lilly and her great-grandma.

Zuri playing with the dog. She loves animals. She had fun with the cats, but even more with the dog.

Playing "this little piggy" with great-grandpa! She absolutely loved it!

We had a great time in Sacramento that weekend! We are looking forward to seeing everyone again for the 4th of July!
