We started off a long holiday weekend with a Friday evening trip to Juliana and Daryl's house. As always, we had a great time together, and the girls played so well. Juliana made a batch of Brazilian truffle-like treats, which you see Violet eyeing here.
It was nearly 10:30 before we looked at our watches (or cell phones) and figured we ought to get the girls ready to leave!
After a late night Friday, our friend Luis came over Saturday morning with his girls Vilija and Lucy. Luis is an electrician, and he generously helped Stace with wiring in the whole house fan.
Later on Saturday, we went to our HOA Memorial Day barbecue, over at the pool area. Oddly, it was in the mid-60s, so not quite pool weather, but that didn't matter to our girls.
We didn't stay too long, because we had places to go and people to see. Carlos, our Kidz Love Soccer friend, invited us to his baby Santiago's first birthday party.
Here are the girls after the first pinata was broken - Violet is happy with her armful of candy, while big sister only got two pieces. That was remedied with the second pinata...
..which Cora happily took a swing at, while blindfolded.
After the party, we stopped at home to change and then went to Rigo and Colleen's house. There, we left all the kids with a babysitter, and headed up to Ventura's happening Main Street for drinks and dinner. Grownup time!
It was a lot of fun, though another late night. Two LATE nights in one weekend! Stace and I aren't used to that anymore.
