A camping trip was the last big thing we needed to accomplish this summer and we finally made it up a couple weeks ago with the Scotts and the Wilsons. We love having the Wilsons near by again.
It was a little cozy fitting six people in a four man tent so spooning was unavoidable. Luckily it was only awkward for Bret and Matt.
Breakfast turned into a great experiment. Some methods of making breakfast burritos were not as successful as others (ask Bret about his egg-cooker 2000).
It feels like there were more weddings in the last month alone than throughout the entire summer... and I've dragged poor Bret to most of them. Melissa was a particularly gorgeous Bride.
This last weekend my mom and my sisters had a fun weekend away from it all. We stayed up at a condo in Midway and had some quality girl time with no husbands and no kids over 7 months allowed. We had lots of fun going out to dinner, sewing, going on walks, organizing our family pictures, watching "bonnet movies", hitting up the outlets and being able to talk without being interrupted.
Wives and daughters watching Wives and Daughters. Quite fitting.
Yes, my mom knits all our stockings.
Only Lily and Norah were invited of the kids. They're pretty cute.
The boys likewise had their own male-bonding activities while we were away that mostly involved Rock Band (shirts, I am told, were optional).
Bret and I also spent the last week watching my sister Amy's four kids while they were in England. It's a good thing they're pretty cute too!
Ps. I will reward anyone who can reference the title of this post.

I was more comfortable with you opening the car door for me every day at lunch before I saw this picture of you spooning another man.

Not at all surprised that Mindy figured that one out.
You two have way more fun than me...I need to be more like the Millers.
I've actually never seen You've Got Mail (most of my female friends gasp at this point).
you've got mail... someone already guessed... But I just wanted to prove that I knew it!
you need to put those pictures on the family blob! thanks for taking them.
Meg Ryan, You've got Mail. And I totally didn't look at the other responses first. Do I get a prize?
Fun pictures! And yes, I said "You've got mail", silently to myself as I read the title, before I even knew that I would be quized on it later. love ya- Jen
