Family reunion

The Sunday after the rodeo was our Britten family reunion...talk about a full weekend!

I love Emma's face in this picture!


What better form of entertainment than 2 babies...


Cort, me and Stef...


All of the cousins...well, the ladies at least.

Kaci and Stef...

Halle, Eli and Lanie...

The younguns...I just have to say that Eli has great cousins. They were all so good with him!

Matt and Lanie...

Allie-gator...

Are we having fun yet???

The great-grandkids...

Almost everyone from our side of the clan...

This is probably my favorite picture of my dad...ever. I don't know who had the guts to tell the waiter that it was his birthday, but God help their souls if he ever finds out. He hates to be a part of stuff like that! It was sheer awesomeness.

Thursday I flew into Dallas to pick up Chris and drive him back home. I didn't think that letting him drive for 5 hours after a 3 day test would be the best idea. We were so excited to see each other; I hardly recognized him when I got off the plane because he was smiling so big! After a great night's sleep sans Baby E, we headed to IKEA (awesome!) and then back home. It was so nice to spend time alone together!

Finally! Daddy arrived home! Eli was so excited to see his daddy that he cried...or maybe he was a little scared. Pretty soon he remembered his daddy and was happy again!

We should be officially caught up with pictures! YAY! If you are in the family, all of the pictures from the weekend are up in the private family section of Chris's photography blog. They are many more and they are bigger and better quality there, so if you want any prints go there to copy them. I try to only post a few, lower-quality pics on the blog so be sure to check all of them out on the website!
