Weekend Fun with Family & Friends

Peter's parents (along with two nephews Eldon and Lewis) came over for a weekend visit. Clifford was very excited for their visit because he had invited them over to attend his last soccer game of the Spring season. I wasn't so sure they would come since they had just gotten back from round 1 at Disneyland and figured the last thing they'd want to do is get back in for another long drive, but to our surprise, they did indeed come. I think it's safe to speak for everyone that we all had a great time. Here's some highlights of the weekend.

Our friends Mel & James joined us on Friday as well. Here are their girls out enjoying the little kiddie pool we picked up at a yard sale.
 They decided to "cannon ball" in
 I FINALLY got a pool!!!! It may not be the underground type that I wanted, but this is a start! Peter knows how to make his woman happy! Once Peter and James made it home from work, the guys started setting it up. 
 Here is a view from our back deck. Looks good!
 It happens to be Friday the 13th. Peter did NOT escape bad luck. He burnt his finger at work really good. Poor guy!
Peter soaking his finger in ice water. Hmmm....Deja Vu! (bottom pic is from when he burnt his hand bbq'ing on Easter back in 2011. And this is why I have to keep a bottle of burn jel around lol)
 Eldon, Kristjan and Lewis laying out to dry
 Peter and Mel working hard on bbq'ing
 Hot Dogs & Burgers & Sides....YUM!
 Mel made us a lemon curd cheesecake for dessert. Oh My! I made sure to keep a few slices before she took the leftovers home.
 Mickey made me a new wreath. I love it! Perfect for my beach-themed bathroom, and I had the perfect spot to hang it up.
 Saturday morning we made the drive to Granite Falls for Clifford's last soccer game of the Spring season. He was so happy to be able to play and have his grandparents watch (last time we attempted that, he got into the bike accident and hurt his hand right after they rolled into town). He played hard. He helped assist in one goal and even made a goal himself!! Great way to end the season!
Clifford had plans to attend his best friend Matthew's birthday, so he gave his goodbyes before heading over for a night of fun.
After dropping Clifford off, I made a quick stop at the store to pick up some items to make a BLT Pasta Salad for dinner. It was scrumptious!
