A Weekend of Celebrations

We headed up to Thousand Oaks this past weekend for a couple exciting celebrations. Our good friend, Chris Cooke (a Westmonter) had a CA wedding reception with his new wife, Kelly. Cookies totally scored a great gal! It was also so fun to catch up with the other Fellas and their growing families. Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Cookies! We also had a surprise birthday and retirement party for my mom on Saturday night. My brother and his wife, Ewona were the master planners of the festivities and they did an amazing job. My mom was so surprised and was so thankful to celebrate with close friends and family. We love you mom and we are so excited for this next phase in your life. More time to come and visit us!:)We love you Babcia! Congratulations!
Couldn't resist the cute pic of Daddy and the kids.
O, E, Jeremiah , Mom and Ewona
Happy Birthday and Retirement Mom!

It took me a little while to find O & E in the Cookies pic. They weren't so happy to have picture time? ;-)
