Harvey Outings

We had a couple of great outings in August with the Harvey boys and family.  Now that Doug has become an official resident of Los Angeles, he made a few appearances in the Bay Area over the summer.  We had a blast celebrating some belated birthdays with the Harvey family (at Trader Vic's - our favorite) and also going with Virginia's crazy uncles to Gilroy Gardens.

Cutest Keiki:

It was a virgin mai tai, we promise:

Like Mother, Like Daughter

One of the joys of scanning all of our old photos is getting to see how much Virginia and I are alike and how many similar things we do! Here are a couple of like mother, like daughter shots:

Family Reunion

Even though all of the Webb family has endured great sadness in losing Granny this month, we were able to find some joy in our loss because we were all able to gather together in Montgomery for her funeral. This was quite a feat - Granny had three children (all with spouses), seven grandchildren (all with spouses), and 5 1/2 great grandchildren (Suzanne is pregnant with #6 due in October). And those children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren live in some pretty farflung places: Denver, San Diego, San Francisco, Dallas, Austin, Charlotte, and all over the great state of Alabama! We realized that this was actually the first time that everyone was in one place at one time since the grandchildren have all gotten married. It was a great gift that she gave us to allow us to have a family reunion of sorts.

Virginia had an absolute blast playing with her cousins. She is right between Suzanne's two girls in terms of age, so the three of them went wild playing ring around the rosie, blowing bubbles in the backyard, and generally wreaking havoc.

The Webbs thoroughly enjoyed each others' company. We hope to do it again soon at a Webb family reunion?!?!?
