No June gloom here

As it is June 30th and I am determined NOT to have a whole month go by without a post, here is a little catch up from June.  So, yes, many of our nights are spent watching So You Think You Can Dance in this first summer month, but otherwise, I don't think I've sat in one place for longer than 10 minutes (with one fabulous exception -- there will be a mama in miami post).

June began with a blast! We took our brood on their first airplane trip to Los Angeles. I could probably fill a whole post with just that, but needless to say, we made it, and it wasn't actually all that bad (ask Park about changing Sammy in the "lavatory"). We went for the Austin Reunion 2012, celebrating Mimi's 90th (!!!) birthday, "Big" Allen's birthday, (quotes because "little" Allen is quite a bit taller than him) Jeffrey, Clayton and Allen's 18th birthday, and Jeffrey and Clayton's high school graduation.



Gorgious Leigh and her triplets Allen, Jeffrey and Clayton.

 Lovely ladies!  Mimi and Lynn
We finally met Emily!  Proud papa, Mark (aka Stubby)
 Anna was quite concerned with the cake allotments.
 The future...
Sammy had a blast opening and closing the door a million and four times.
Isn't my girl so sweet?
