Phew! August is already over and I still haven't gotten a chance to share about our trip to Cleveland! Where did the month go?
Well, just as the month started, we headed to Cleveland for an unfortunately
fast
weekend with family for Joe's cousin, Shawna, and her fiance, Doug, to
get married. It was a hot weekend - about 95 every day - and all the
wedding festivities were outdoor, so we packed our sunscreen and headed
out. It was a great wedding and we saw lots of family members that we
were missing!
On Saturday, we got to spend some time with Aunt Sue, Ashley, Dan, and
Agi before heading to the ceremony. Aunt Sue gave Julia two pop-up books
- Cinderella and Snow White - which have become FAST favorites. They
are cute little rhyming stories and Jules has pretty much memorized them
and can recite the words on each page.
As a side note, Joe has
decided that he thinks Julia will read by the end of 2012... we may
wager on this, as I'm not convinced... but suffice it to say that she
loves her some good books.
On Sunday, we had a
chance to have breakfast with Dan, Agi, Ashley, Adam, and Aunt Chris
(who came in from New Jersey). It was nice to catch up and relax with
everyone. Julia even got some piano playing in Aunt Sue and her
Nagymama.
While we were gone, we saw all sorts of folks, including:
 |
| John and Mary, who just had a new baby in June |
 |
| And here's baby Ezra all dressed up for the wedding |
 |
| Julia got to hang out with Papa Seahorse at the ceremony |
 |
| Uncle Bill and Shawna looked wonderful! |
 |
| We had a chance to see lots of Tyna Aunts and Uncles (7 of the 11) |
 |
| We sat for a
bit with Joe's cousin, Brian. This is after he gave Julia the most
enormous, bright blue cookie in the world. Shockingly, you can barely
see the black eye I gave him ;) |
 |
| Jules got to dance with the bride and groom and she loved every moment. Thanks, Shawna and Doug! |
 |
| Dan and Agi were all dressed up for the event |
 |
| The piano players |
It was a great trip and we were so grateful to be
able to celebrate Shawna and Doug's wedding with them! Congratulations,
you two!!
