Lately, With Friends

We took a break from all of our lazing about to spend time with Kate, Cary, and their families this weekend. On Friday we went out to Pickle Bill's  on the Erie lakeshore and celebrated Kate's adorable sister Abby's birthday. 

As usual, it was like we'd never spent a day apart since the last time we saw each other in the fall of 2011.

The evening was lovely and between the boats, ducks, fireworks, and pretty girls, there was plenty to see.

Cary and Abby's mom Petra was so sweet to invite us to their party. We had such a good time.

Then, on Saturday, we met up with Kate and went to an art festival nearby. It was extremely hot, though, and the Swedes couldn't take it so we took them home and Kate and I went out to dinner, just the two of us. And it was just like the old days.

 

Today we went over to Kate's parents' house and had breakfast with them before heading to the zoo with Cary and Kate's sister and her husband. I loved, loved, loved getting to spend time with these girls and their wonderful families.
