Some family trees have beautiful leaves, and some have just a bunch of nuts. Remember, it is the nuts that make the tree worth shaking

Dual Family Functions

The day started a little questionable, weather-wise. Tom was out watering the plants this morning while I finished preparing some eats and it started to rain. Luckily the weather cleared and we ended up with a fairly nice day. We headed to Tom's brother's boat to enjoy brunch with Rita, Tom's mom, his brother David and his nieces, Breana and Kelly. Trevin's mom is in Maui so he was able to tag along with us. We didn't get to see Rita for Mother's Day last week so that was the reason for the gathering. I made overnight baked french toast casserole from Paula Dean and Tom made a delicious fruit salad. It was a relaxing time to be had by all. David is always a very gracious host; I enjoyed myself.

Then it was off to Vancouver to meet up with my side of the family at Grandma and Grandpa's for Grandpa's birthday bbq. It's always such fun to see everyone and chat. Josie got to come with us and she met Zach, their dog and they got along better than anyone expected. She had a good day too, judging by how zonked out she is right now!

Hope everyone had a fine weekend and enjoyed the weather!
