Stephen's and my trip to NY was followed by a quick trip to Ann Arbor to see Steve's parents. Cousin Kara was there for the summer for an internship, and cousin Peter was there with a friend for a swim camp at Michigan U, and Kate was there to bring Peter home so we got lucky to see everyone (and Grandma and Grandpa had a houseful!!!)
Kings Corners!
After Michigan, Stephen and I drove to Ohio for a Bar Mitzvah for his good friend (and our family friends) Brett Vaccaro. What an experience and a wonderful series of events. Brett did an amazing job with the ceremony, and the Vacarros are the most gracious hosts anywhere! Stephen's friend Zach joined us from CA, so we had a buddy to hang around with too!
The CA boys at the reception the night before the ceremony. (Brett will always be a CA boy to me, no matter where he was born, or where he is living!! I'm SURE there are a lot of Yankees fans that would protest that!! )
Here are the boys again at the party.... late, when the lights came back on!
And back home..... Chris has a new passion - his scooter. Stay tuned for videos of a tail whip! We FINALLY got a grill so we can cook for these growing boys without heating up the house.
Chris was in the local 4th of July Parade with his All Star baseball team, Stephen in yet another basketball tournament.... this one they Won!!!!!
Short hike around Lake Anza in Tilden Park in Berkeley near our house
Vegas for a basketball tournament for both boys. No basketball pictures, but we did see Jerry Rice and get his autograph!!
And back home.... Football season starts
And now I'm realizing that almost the whole summer went by and we haven't seen (our nephew) Owen. He's right nearby in Sunnyvale doing an internship at Apple. Need to fix that!!
And almost forgot..... This is for sure the last summer that I am taller than Chris.... or was that last summer? Too close to call....
