Memorial Day
Went over to Neal and Ang’s for an amazing picnic. I think Ang should have a catering company. She made tomato/mozz/basil salad, tortellini pasta salad, chili cheesecake, grilled corn on the cob, chicken and brats. V. tasty. She had help from Wade, Michelle and Neal. Wade also made some fabulous Mexican Martinis and Michelle whipped up some strawberry shortcake.
I did manage to impress, however, with my homemade chocolate chip ice cream sandwiches. All that slaving over the hot oven (and my own burn) was worth it.
We stayed a little later than everyone else. It was so nice to visit with Neal and Ang after the crazy weekend. A and N smoked cigars and we all played with L. He had a great time and did an excellent job ALL weekend long. I am proud of him.

Additionally, I was talking to him at breakfast and I said “Mama.” He very determinedly said, “Mmmmmah mmah.” I don’t count it, because he wouldn’t do it again, but you should have see the look on Aaron’s and my face.
