Party time with our 2nd family. The Brinkerhoffs. Back in 1989 we met them as Jill responsed to our Yankee Flyer ad in search of mini lop bunnies. Through the years, our families have grown closer together sharring in holidays, weddings, travels etc. Spending time with them is like being with family. 
This was a great celebration and also a 'send off' Party for Pete and Sally. They are packing their bags, leaving Portsmoth NH and headed to Lake Tahoe. They both have loved that place since the day they left. We all knew they would go back, it was only a matter of when.
Rad bikes!
Guess there isn't a weight limit
Nick was pretty pumped to see his mom on the bike (since he couldn't yet...)
Shane got to spend time with lots of pretty ladies =) Hey Jodie!
Pete and Mark did a great job of wearing Nick out playing 'keep away' with his hat. Nick barely took a break all night. At one point, he finally went potty, but was yelling from the potty, I want to go back out with the big kids!!
Any more space on that grill?
We were all watching a soccer game, put on by Nick and Ivan
Croquet anyone?
Nick was delivering his first wedgy!
Smiley bunch =) We could never catch Meredith.... Guess those modeling days are to come...
Onto the back yard fireworks. Pete is normally in charge of those. However after a few years of 'close calls' and stern suggestions from his family, he threw in the towel. Thankfully their neighbor brought a few =)
Looks like the Party is winding down, Swimming anyone?
Seriously, who wakes a sleeping baby??
Thanks for a great evening - love you all!
