My sister’s engaged. I haven’t had too much time to spend in getting to know Keith, but the time I have had, I have been impressed. Keith and Emily have a 9 week old daughter now and I spent the long Independence Day weekend at my parents house with them and a bunch of friends. Keith showed himself to have endless amounts of patience and adoration with both Riley (the 9 week old) and my sister’s older daughter, Gwen. He’s caring and firm, and I cannot imagine a better father for the two little girls, or a better husband for my sister. I’m just so happy for the four of them.
The weekend otherwise was amazing – sunny and warm (the way I like it), with family and friends in abundance. I’m so lucky to have parents that not only are OK with me bringing gaggles of friends to their house for 3 days, but that enjoy it! I loved having the time with them cooking dinner, playing on the boats, and refilling that cavity in your soul that only time with your family can fill. I love that they got to meet those friends that are close to me, and I’m happy that my friends got a peek at the people that made me who I am.
This is the type of relaxing weekend that just makes me feel so fortunate to have all the people in my life. Many pictures were taken over the weekend…. I’ll add some as soon as the photographers decide to let me see the pictures. (HINT, HINT, my lovely photographer friends that joined me in VA).
Next up? Sonoma with some Virginia friends this weekend, then a self-made bike tour of the Long Island wineries the weekend after, and perhaps a beach day or Six Flags day the following weekend. I have a full few weekends coming up!
