Summer Kick-off!!

If Lucy could recall these early years, we know she would say the weekend of June 2-3, 2012 was the best weekend of her life.  We had one of those weekends around the city that we rarely get - with no plans but so much going on that we never have a reason to be home.  On Saturday Lucy and Joe went to her music class and afterwards we all went out for lunch.  After her nap we decided to check out Do Division, the local street fest, and Lucy's first.  After we weaved through the mile-long mass of people in line for beer and sangria, we found an entire street of tents for families and kids.  More our style these days.  And, to our surprise pony rides in the middle of the fest!! Who would have thought?  And we then saw one of Lucy's former music teachers singing on a stage who said "is that you, lucy?" over the mic. Lucy felt very popular.  We thought Saturday was the highlight of her life....

Until Sunday when we met Aunt Kristy, John, Will and Aunt Pat the zoo for the morning, followed by Griffen's (our friend Kilmer's dog) surprise visit to our house Sunday evening.  Lucy is a puppy lover, but they are rarely in her room.  She was consumed with Griffen running around the house, drinking water, laying around, giving her kisses.

So, it was one of those weekends with nothing eventful but so much busier than we could have ever planned.  In between all of the activities, Joe and I went with friends to the Icon brew-and-view.  Movies are so much better with a bottle of wine!

My first pony ride! (On a side note, look how sad the pony looks? Maybe not what he had hoped to be doing on a Saturday afternoon, or ever)
