Joanne's visit

It seems like when people come to visit we end up at a lot of the same places. We enjoy it, but it may make it may appear that we're duplicating pictures.

Recently, Joanne (Mommy's college roommate) came for a visit.

GO 51s!!!

It's not very often we get a picture of the three of us together.

When Joanne came to visit, last year, we took a similar picture, only Mommy was 7 1/2 months pregnant then.

Playing with Joanne's flip-flop. Gross!

It's just too bad she's such an unhappy child.

Joanne must be REALLY funny.

Just hanging out.

In the car, again.

Playing with Joanne's phone.

Lots of fun.

That's a girl, smash that yankee phone!

Joanne was determined to get a picture like this.

Look, Joanne! Alexis learned how to glare just like you!

There you go.

I'm not sure what Joanne's doing in this one.

That's better.

Red Rock Canyon.

Ooooh!

Ahhhhh!

Daddy & Alexis enjoying the view.

Joanne, Mommy & Alexis (can you believe the nerve of Joanne wearing a yankee shirt? And, no, we didn't plan the shirts; it was purely coincidence).

Down on Freemont Street

No beer for you, Alexis!

Mommy thinks Alexis is way more interesting than the Freemont Street Experience.

Happy Girl!

Alexis really warmed up to Joanne and enjoyed her visit. Here's a final picture of them working out together. Overall, a great visit!

4th of July

I'm still trying to get caught up on posts, so this is (obviously) a little behind.

On the 4th of July, we got invited to a party. We couldn't stay for very long, because Daddy had to work that night, and I didn't take many pictures, but we enjoyed ourselves while we were there.

May I have that, please?

Yesssssss!

Alexis may have gotten the water bottle, but Daddy got the beer bottle!

Good stuff.

So happy.

She really does love water bottles.

She did put down the water bottle long enough to play with the football, but as you can see, the water bottle stayed close by her at all times.

Climbing High

Alexis has been climbing the stairs for awhile now, and I just think it's so cute.

She changes so fast that I was afraid if I didn't get it on video soon, she'd grow up and I'd miss my chance, so here it is.

Hofbräuhaus

A couple of weeks ago, we went to one of Mommy & Daddy's favorite restaurants, Hofbräuhaus. It's a German restaurant with good food, great beer and lots of fun! They have a live band and encourage people to get up on the benches and participate.

Unfortunately, Mommy's driver's license fell out of her purse at home, and she wasn't able to enjoy the yummy beer.

Mommy & Alexis enjoying the ambiance.

Hey, what's over there?

Mmmmm...pretzel.

Sssssoooooooo good!

Flirting with the Austrians at the next table.

Daddy & Alexis with their drinks.

Still flirting.

Second Father's Day

June 21, 2009 was Daddy's 2nd Father's Day.

Daddy wanted to go to see the Las Vegas 51s vs. the Portland Beavers.

No more hat.

We all had a nice day!
