| By the time we got to Memorial Day after that crazy wedding weekend, Javier and I were exhausted but we still wanted to kick off the summer with an inaugural barbecue in the backyard. I invited my parents and a few friends over and we brought out the horseshoe set for a friendly, hardly competitive few games of horseshoe before it got too dark to play. For the record, Justin and I won…not that it matters, but…well. Just so you know. 🙂 | Cuando llego el dia del memorial, despues de un fin de semana de locos, Javier y yo estabamos muy cansados pero aun asi queriamos comenzar el verano con una parrillada inaugural en el patio. Invite a mis papas y unos cuantos amigos, y trajimos un juego de herraduras para unas partidas amistosamente competitivas antes de que oscureciera. Para que sepan, Justin y yo ganamos…no es que importe…pero bueno, solo para que sepan. 🙂 |
| Willie and Alethea brought their sweet doggo Frankie Lou over and our dogs went totally crazy with her – they were still exhausted two days later. Willie brings her over every time Hickory Slims has practice, but it had been at least a couple of months since the last time they were over here and Frankie Lou was still a small pup the last time they saw her. Now she’s full grown and enormous – but has no idea that she could knock Chori out with a whack of her paw. It was fun to see them romping around the back yard again together – so they had just as much fun as we did. | Willie y Alethea trajeron a su dulce perrita Frankie Lou y nuestros perros estaba como locos con ella – despues de 2 dias aun seguien cansados. Willie la trae cada vez que practicamos con Hickory Slims, pero eso no habia pasado hace ya unos meses y Frankie todavia era cachorrita. Ahora esta crecida y enorme – pero no tiene idea que puede sacar volando a Chori. Fue entretenido verlos jugar en el patio juntos – asi que ellos lo pasaron tan bien como nosotros. |
| After a great evening of grilling out, horseshoe and crazy doggos, we closed off the night with a clean kitchen (shocking!) and a fridge full of leftover beer (thanks to all of you who generously left your brews at our place!). A successful holiday if do say so! | Despues de una gran tarde, herraduras, y perro locos, cerramos la noche con una cocina limpia (sorprendente!) y un refrigerador lleno de sobras y cervezas (gracias a quienes generosamente trajeron cervezas!) Un feriado sumamente exitoso si me preguntan! |

What kind of camera and lense do you use? I really like the quality of your pictures.
