Friends!

A few weeks ago we went to the cities for a wedding of some college friends, Mike and Ania.  It was a great weekend of reuniting with many of our college friends and celebrating Mike and Ania's big day!  We had a BBQ, played frisbee (or alternately, ate donuts and watched other people play frisbee), went out for brunch, and just hung out a lot!  Charlotte really enjoyed playing with Melia, whom you may remember from these picture a few years ago: 

 Now look at these grown up girls playing frisbee!  They had such a great time together all weekend and didn't fight at all!  The bummer of the weekend was when Charlotte got a little visit from the barf fairy for about 6 hours one day and threw up all morning.  By lunch time though she was fine!  Hooray!

 Joined by Melia's little brother, Aden.

 This is a self portrait, with Charlotte holding the camera out in front of them to take their own picture.

With Melia and Aden's mom, Alyssa.  In the background is another friend, Karl with his son, Tobiah.  Sadly, Karl and Mikkin just moved far away (though not as far away as they used to live in China!).

 Charlotte was having lots of fun holding baby Esther and laying on the grass.  I'm not sure if baby Esther was having as much fun...

 Most of us were able to go out for breakfast at Maria's, a local favorite for breakfast/brunch.  A few days later when I ate my leftovers, I found a dead boxelder bug folded up in my tortilla.  There's no way it got there except when it was first made at the restaurant...gross.

 Here we are at the wedding!

All fancied up!
