Family Gatherings

This weekend was filled with friends, family and food! (Needless to say, it was a good weekend!) Saturday, we went to a baby shower for Quinn's cousin, Whitney, and her baby, Pearl. Pearl is about a month younger than Cailyn and it was the first time we'd gotten to see her - and what a cutie pie she is! Rylee had lots of fun playing with all of the cousins (she still is not walking, but has figured out how to crawl and climb without using her left foot...)Emma and Rylee sharing cookies on the front porch during the shower.
Pearl (the reason for the party!), Priya, and Cailyn...the three most recent additions to the Clawson great-grandchildren.

Afterwards, we had a little group come over to our place for burgers and some Rockband (our favorite pasttime these days.)
Quinn on drums, Matt on guitar...and Ava joined in with her own guitar!

Rockstars in training - Ava on guitar, Rylee singing, and Ari on drums!

Then this evening, we went to my cousin Megan's house for her little girl McKenna's 2nd birthday dinner.

McKenna got a cool tunnel and tent set that the girls played with...it was perfect for our crawling Rylee!

While the big girls played outside, Cailyn and Brooke played inside. Cailyn looks like a GIANT next to little Brooke! I can't believe how fast babies grow - Cailyn is just 3 months older than Brooke, and Brooke is about a pound heavier than Cailyn was when she was born. Crazy!

Later on, the three big girls bummed around in the bath tub. (OK, corny, I know...)

Then they had fun snuggling and playing in their jammies!
