Al and Michele help out

We are really grateful our friends Al and Michele Rizos came to spend the weekend with us. They were a huge help at our weekend party and we had a chance to catch up a little after everyone else left. We absolutely need to plan to do this kind of thing way more frequently. We ate entirely too much really good food which seems to be a fixed feature of every time we get together and we solved all the problems of the world (in our minds). Not saying it is an echo chamber, but, well, it kind of is. It is a good kind of echo chamber though.

Labor Day party

We had quite a nice party of mostly twenty-somethings over the weekend. The shoes and purses were piled up much higher than this at the peak of the party. We cooked hamburgers and hot dogs with very spicy guacamole on Sunday evening and and then quiche with Lorena’s special, extra spicy salsa on Monday morning. I do not think people got a whole lot of sleep, but the “kids” all seemed to have a nice time. We inaugurated or new fire pit and made gallons and gallons of coffee. We were thankful to have an extremely nice Canadian contingent (maybe that statement is a little bit redundant) and a strong showing from the very polished California young urban professional crowd. We are looking forward to doing it again next year.
