Garlic Festival in Gilroy

This weekend it the Gilroy Garlic Festival. Lots of food prepared with garlic, garlic and More GARLIC! Over the last year we have become Garli-holics. Adding it to our main dishes, bbq sauces, side dishes...........yuummm!

For the past few weeks I have had an aversion to Garlic. The smell, the taste, and oh the smell.....! When we went to the Santa Cruz boardwalk we had some yumm garlic fries. well not so yumm for me.....So sad I was really looking forward to the Festival.

Nice Truck

Blaah Blaah blah

Do you think Blogs with kids and Babies get more viewing than those without?
Do you think there are more comments made about kids and babies?
I had this theory a little while ago, so I posted a picture of my niece Charley. No comments, I was surprised, I was wrong. Maybe that will change.

Kristin's Wedding Weekend

Oregon here we come... this weekend was full of activites. We ate at the mongolian BBQ, Busters BBQ, the rehersal dinner was catered by a BBQ place, then Kristins wedding food was great too, Another BBQ on Sunday at Cathy's. WE ate well this weekend came back a few pounds thicker!

It was the first time in 5 years that all the family was together in one place. Still didn't get a chance for a complete family photo. But plenty of Photos to remember how much fun we all had.

Visiting Jamey's house then hiking down to the Santiam and sticking our feet in the freezing cold water. The water level was much higher than last time. So we had to huddle on the edge of the bank.

Michael took the kids on tractor rides. He even let them steer around the property. It was a warm day, otherwise we would have been riding the tractor all day. Staying at Mom's house was an experiece to remember. 7 adults, 4kids, and MINI!. The little girls got along just fine. Deegan felt left out now and again. but Maison played with him. Those pictures didn't turn out so great.
At the Wedding there was Dancing all night long. The flower girls and Deegan dominated the Dance floor with their twirls and swirls. Then the big girls came out to Dance! Kristin and her friends were able to get Joyce out on the Dance floor for some line dancing. We all had fun....Participating and watching..
