Sisters make the best of friends

I am pretty lucky. I have 2 fabulous sisters that I love, respect, and get along with....most of the time. I hate that one lives so far away in Arizona- but I think we work pretty hard at seeing each other 3-4 times a year. And we talk- almost every day- so that helps :)

I am super lucky and love that my other sister lives only 30 minutes away. This makes for a lot of fun evenings, tons of laughter, and a guy for John that can relate to the Reynolds girls. (this is a MUST).
Great views!

Yesterday Terri invited us over for a swim and a cookout at her apartment. We had the best time - enjoying the sun, meeting new friends, and grilling out. Here are a few pictures of what the days activities entailed.
Bud Light yes! The other beer- not mine! Ugh- who drinks that stuff?

The grill master- Yummy!
Gotta have your pool pass!

Saw this walking out- called a beer-a-mid- impressive
As you can see-, the Venetian- Las Colinas, really has it going on. What a great day! Thanks Terri- see you next weekend!

Being an Aunt....RULES!

This past weekend John and I ventured out to Phoenix to visit my sister, her husband, and my new (well 8 week old) niece, Marguerite Anne- aka Margo. I was so excited to meet the little beauty in real life- and it was an amazing weekend. This is the first grandchild on my family's side- and if you couldn't tell- we are all over the moon.

She's real cute. And by "real cute"- I mean cutest baby EVER! She's sweet, cuddly, giggly, smiley, with minimum fussiness- or at least that's what this aunt experienced. :)  We had a great weekend hanging out, taking LOTS of pictures- courtesy of John, and even went out for sushi. Margo is so well rounded- she's skipping McDonald's and heading straight for the fancy stuff!

*** Note- these are not the pictures John took- these are courtesy of my handy, dandy Blackberry that I love and everyone else hates.

Meeting Miss Margo for the 1st time
Look at that little smile

Cheers! Celebrating babies is fun!
Of course- it wouldn't be a proper welcome into the family without some toasting...and some cold beer.
