Hangin' out with Mom & Dad


I spent yesterday afternoon with my parents. My dad came by and had lunch (Con Pane sandwiches- YUM) with me. It was fun because he told me all about the highlights of their recent trip. We talked about the baby, and caught up on general family stuff. He helped me put together the daybed in the nursery, which proved to be a trial of our engineering skills, but we made it through and the bed is sturdy enough for sleeping. ;-)

My mom showed up an hour later to help me get some of my household chores completed. We crossed off some of the things on the list. As a bonus, my front yard looks great thanks to her superior gardening skills. YAY!!!!

When we were done, we sat down in the living room and shared a great bottle of Malbec, well, they did. It was nice sitting and catching up with my parents. They were talking about what lies ahead for them and us- they're so excited to be Grandparents.

Then, this afternoon, Mehdi and I joined them and some friends at the German-American Society Oktoberfest in El Cajon. We have so much fun there every year. Dad wore his Lederhosen which are so fun and festive. We had a lot of laughs with my parents and their friends. Mehdi and I totally enjoyed our Bratwurst and the array of wonderful pastries. YUMMY We had to leave a little early because Mehdi had to work, but I'm glad we could join them today. Its made for a fun weekend for me, just hangin' with my mom & dad. ;-)
