Dinner at Becky's with both families

The guys picked up Tyler and Dylan and met up with Avery and headed to the Botanical Gardens for a morning of fun and exercise. John got there with his camera, but unfortunately, the camera must have been on and no battery...hence, no pictures of the playhouses and the fun morning. Meanwhile, Judy and Jean got started on the Chicken Enchiladas and had a fun morning in the kitchen. Meanwhile, Jordan was collecting on her birthday present from Aunt Becky with a make-over and was joined by her mother, the bride and Becky. Busy morning for all!!

All the boys and Avery returned for lunch a little after noon and then Dylan had a nap, Tyler and Avery played nicely together between tickle monster fights with Papa and the girls finished up cooking. We headed for Becky's with food, table, chairs etc about 4ish and got things set up for the "family" dinner.
