guess who came to visit

my dear friend hailey lives in palm springs with her husband and daughter. that is much too far away I think. she and vivien were in washington for the better part of august,visiting grandparents and other family, and we hosted a gathering in their honor.

vivien


on the menu:
waikiki meatballs and rice
cabbage salad
vegetable crudite with uncle dan's ranch dip (hailey's favorite)
strawberry shortcake
mocha java punch


my mom, vivien and me

who knew the water jug and ladle would be such a distraction.
(note the lack of clothing. strawberries are kind of a mess. sorry hai!)

we could have played for hours I think.

our visits are always too short. thanks for coming friend.
love you.

heather: thank you! I'm bummed that we missed each other while you were in the states. maybe I'll tag along on one of your family's next trips to england! wouldn't that be fun?!

whit: thanks! according to the husband of one of hailey's friends, the invite left out the "man draw" like bbq or meat. ha ha

hai: you know I love doing it, especially for you, my friend. the "garden" and "party" line had me laughing out loud!
