Lala Land

My sisters and I decided to all meet up in LA and surprise Kelly for her Birthday!  It was so hard to keep it a secret but she had no idea and was totally surprised!  Tori and Kelly just moved in together so we helped them with a little organizing around their house and did some sightseeing in their new neighborhood.  We had a fun weekend and even saw a couple celebrities!  Kelly had to work an event on sunday for Ban.do so Tori and I got to be her interns :).  It was a great weekend with my sisters!  I hate that they all live so far away but it just makes trips like this that much more fun and special!   

10 Months

Our sweet girl is growing up so fast.  

Olivia has done a lot this month!  She can give a hi-five and wave bye bye and Olivia said her first word- "Uh oh", quickly followed by her second word, "Mama"!!  It's the best thing in the world to hear her say that!  She is babbling a lot and tends to get louder if she thinks no one is listening or if her brothers are being loud.  So funny, just trying to get a little attention (which she doesn't demand that often).  

 

She has such a sweet, calm and cute temperament.  I am so thankful for that!  She is also sleeping great!  Unless she is cutting teeth, she sleeps through the whole night.  Olivia has four teeth now; two bottom and two top. She is eating a bunch of new foods with those teeth.  It takes her a while to get used to any new textures.  She is usually pretty dramatic about it and gags or spits it out as soon as it's in her mouth.    She is getting sturdy standing by herself and has almost taken a step without holding on to anything.  I am sure she will be walking soon and then we are really in trouble!  Just trying to take her pictures today was crazy!  She never wants to sit still.  Thankfully, her brothers were here to help make funny faces and distract her.     

Love my sweet Livy girl!

Happy Father's Day!

Reay Family Reunion

The first weekend in June, we have our Reay Family Reunion.  I think this year was my favorite so far!    I love that every year there are new family members, more babies, and crazier (I mean bigger and better :) themes! Can't wait for the next one! 

There was so much fun stuff planned for the weekend.  We played cards, had a picnic at the beach, made snow cones, ate lots of yummy food and a big had Luau on Saturday night!

The great grandkids.  There are 12 (almost 13 ;) !!

The Luau!

One of the activities we did at the Luau was a hula hoop contest.  It was really fun and cute to watch all the kids (and some adults ;) get into it.  Colin was seriously amazing!  Who knew?!! I started to film everyone but couldn't take the camera off him.  He looked so cute and funny and was so serious about what her was doing.  Love this kid!

Thank you to my mom and aunts for all your hard work planning, organizing, shopping, etc.!  The weekend was amazing!
