We've had a fun weekend. Friday evening we took the kids to see the movie Ratatouille. 
It was an OK movie, the kids seemed to like it. I had higher hopes for it though because it has gotten some good reviews, but I thought it was kinda boring. 
We then went to Sonic Burger for dinner. Love the drinks they have there...I got a lo-cal cherry limeade...yum-o!
Saturday morning Jacob had baseball practice. While he had practice, Aaron and I played some tennis while Ella was our ball girl. We had to dust off our rackets...it has probably been 8 years since we've played together. Back when we lived in Monterey we lived very near some courts so we got all the gear and haven't really played since moving back! It was a lot of fun so I think we'll do it more often. It's perfect because the courts are right next to where Jacob practices.
Saturday evening we had our monthly dinner club. It was a very special dinner club because we were also celebrating Kim's 30th birthday. Because of that we added a couple of special touches! Unfortunately Alicia, Michelle, and Aaron R. had to miss out this month...we missed them. We started the evening at Matt and Stephanie's house for cocktails and appetizers. We then headed out to one of Redding's newer restaurants, Moonstone Bistro. During our dinner a tuxedoed escort arrived for Kim. Awaiting in the parking lot was a limo to cruise us around town! The driver took us to the City Hall fountain, Sculpture Park, Sundial Bridge plus he took photos of all of us in funny poses at each of those locations. He's going to put together a slideshow of all our photos on a DVD for Kim...how fun! He also took us to Coldstone Creamery for ice cream!
Sunday, the kids and I, met Karen and Josh at Waterworks Park for the day. We spent most of our time in the Lazy Lagoon and on the Raging Rapids. Buying a season pass was money well spent this summer. Waterworks is so close to our house and so fun to just go for a few hours.

Great, great pictures! I love that you got the one of John on the trailer! But I'm not so happy with that one picture of me - you must know which one!! :)
Heh, heh, I think maybe it's good some of those limo shots were dark ;>) Looks like a great time and the bistro looked wonderful!
Sooo much fun. When's the next dinner club? I can't wait!!
