Happy Labor Day Weekend

I hope everyone is doing something fun this weekend. Here in Seattle we're taking it slow and easy. Kelsey and her friend Ayla went to Bumbershoot yesterday. They got there really early, like an hour and a half before the gates opened at 11, so they could make sure to get Mainstage passes to see Panic!At The Disco at 10 pm. And then they hung out at the Mainstage all day. Kelsey said highlights included Crowded House, The Shins, Gymclass Heroes and a local Seattle band Schoolyard Heroes. She had a really good time, but had nothing to eat all day and barely had anything to drink. She drank like a camel when she got home last night.

Meanwhile, Jay and I took the dogs for a walk around Greenlake, then he played Bioshock for the rest of the day while I lazed around watching movies and napping. We're hoping to be a bit more active today. Hoping. It remains to be seen.

Kris is having a big family picnic at her house, and I wish we could there. I guess we'll make some hot dogs here and pretend.

Weather - great! Food - enough for an Army and all very good! I brought a WW dish - zucinni and diced tomatoes with fat-free mozerella cheese - it was very good. The following were at the gathering: Kris, Wayne, Kassidy, Ashley (Kassidy's friend), Deb, Ben, Anthony, Mare, Roy, Bobby, Megan, Robbie and Joan......... Those that said they were coming and didn't show - Nicole, tray, Danielle, Brit, Briana, Matt.

Lori had other plans, Pam had other plans.

We all departed around 7:30 p.m. Very nice day all around. Oh, Lilly was there too!

Yes, tons of food, you know Wayne and his cooking. Wish you could have been here too. We all had a good time. Mom's dish was very good. Today we hit the ball game - super hot and no we did not win the couch so we left. TOO HOT!
