New Jersey!

We just got back from our trip to NJ and had a blast!  We were sooo busy the entire time!  We had my sister's bridal shower, Gunnar's parents had their annual pig roast, playdates with my friend Jenny and her kiddos Luca and Bella, my brother Ricky's high school graduation, and even an over night trip without the kids!  It was a great time!

This was the day before we left for NJ.  My dad flew out to help me on the plane with the girls since Gunnar flew out a few days after us.

Meghan and her fiance Frank.  The shower was a tea party theme, and everyone was encouraged to wear fancy hats!



The beautiful cake!


The favors!



Me and Meg

The bridesmaids and flower girls



Playdate with the cousins!  Molly and Madison


Melanie, Kacie, and Maci.  These two loved playing "Mommy" to Maci....as you can tell by looking at Maci....she wasn't loving it at this moment!




Melanie and Molly in the sandbox.

The kiddos needed a bath after the dads allowed them to "play" (throw sand at each other) in the sandbox!

My brother's graduation.  It was such a nice ceremony....a real tear jerker!  So proud of ya Ricky!



Gunnar and I went up to Hoboken, NJ (right across the river from New York City) to see a few of his roomates from college.  We left the kiddos with my parents over night, and it was such a nice night with old friends!  (Thanks Mom and Dad!)

PIG ROAST!  Gunnar's parents had their annual pig roast.  It was awesome!  They cooked a 100lb pig (I didn't get any pictures of it unfortunately!)  There was horseshoes, volleyball, a jumpy house for the kiddos, and LOTS of people and food! 


Maci and Kacie!




Aunt Meghan and a sleeping baby Maci!

Nana bought Molly an adorable tent with a little pretend campfire that lit up.  She loved it!

All of the cousins (minus Molly, who was sleeping - she wasn't feeling very well on pig roast day)

Molls on the merry go round at the mall!

This is what happens when Aunt Meghan gets you ready for bed....you end up wearing one of her T-shirts!

Molly and her cousins Drake and Cheyanne (my cousin Gerards kids)

It was a great trip....we're excited to go back in August for all of the wedding festivities!!
