Ciara and Gus took pity on me and took me out to dinner. Actually, I know they don't pity me - it was a newer Spanish restaurant that they had never tried. So, we had sangria and paella and several tapas. It was pretty good. The second picture was taken by staff and it is a big complicated camera - so sorry about the clarity.

Everyone is having babies, Hellie, Tiffany, and Chuck (my boss). He brought his TWINS (yep, that's right, twins) to work to show them off. Will and Ella (fraternal twins). Carrie looks great and all the guys that turn to mush when a baby comes around it great!

Then, just a few days after seeing Chuck's new babies - Tiffany decided to have one! Keira Rae has arrived. She came on June 16 at 5:30ish in the AM. Mom and Baby were great - Dad, too.

I left seeing Keira Rae right after I took these photos and hung out with Ariva, and the kids (Sonya was the only one I knew right away). The others are her friends. I'd tell you there names, but some of them are not so easy to spell. But they were great - we saw High School Musical. It was done by a summer theater group of kids. The girls loved it! The young man (funny kid, really) kept telling me that it was definitely NOT High School Musical. It's an adaptation for the stage and the kids were much younger than the regular Disney show.

THEN I left that to meet Amy and Tiffany (Dillman, this time, not Canavan). We went and saw the Gwen Stefani Concert. IT was awesome. I only have a few pictures from before. I have to download the ones from my phone from the concert. The ones of Amy afterward are when Amy and I went shopping at the SUPER mall (it wasn't so super, but it did have a merri-go-round).

Alistair came home a couple of days later. He was trying to surprise me, but alas, he failed. I could tell he was on the road (he kept calling me all day). That weekend we saw the pride parade they had on Broadway (the half way one, not the real one). Take a peek, but be careful, they are a little racy. . .

The fourth came rumbling by (Alistair stayed - yay!!). The first few pictures you see the shows that were across the sound (it was kind of cool). The rest are some from the Ivar's show. I would like to mention that despite Alistair's asterisks by our win, Ciara and I DID win at Trival Pursuit. Alistair doesn't like it because we used the 20th Anniversary version which is a little different - but we SOUNDLY beat them. I will note that Gus and Alistair have won more times that Ciara and I, but, still, I needed to point out our win.

Okay - I will try (again) to do this more often. Much love to all.
