What a fun weekend! Craft fair, parade, funnel cake, carvival rides, and spending time with family~what could be better. JJ, Jack, Kate and I went up street on Friday. It was so hot but we had fun going to our favorite spots. Then coming home to grandma's for a great meal of chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, broccoli salad, and califlower with cream cheese. As Rachael Ray would say "YUM-O!" Of course my grandma said she just can't cook like she used to. If could cook like that I would think I was doing great! On Saturday when Jimmy and I came up, there were now 15 of us! Fourteen of us went up for the parade. Thanks to JJ who got up early we had fabulous seats. We even got to see the ZemZem's crash right in front of us. For those that don't know what Zem Zem's are. They are part of the Shriner's. They ride these little cars. Some are antique looking, some are sporty. Then they do all the intrique riding. It is everyone's favorite. After the parade we went back to my grandma's for yet another amazing meal. I had a great time with my cousins. I had so much fun playing with their little kids. So much fun that I need a vacation!

I have to agree, it was a fabulous weekend! I always enjoy hanging out with Anita and Jimmy. If there were ever 2 people more meant to be parents, I haven't met them!
Hang in there - Anita, I'll swim with you.

Hi, Anita. I just wanted to comment on seeing Jimmy with Paige...it was so sweet. He's a natural, and we've known you're a natural for as long as I can remember. I think you two spoiled the kids, though....Logan had a blast with Anita and wants to do skin-the-cats constantly!!!!
You guys are in our thoughts and we're hopeful that next ALF there will be a new Rodriguez to sit around Gram Peg's table!!
