We were SO excited to get a visit from the Phillips family yesterday! Steve, Olivia, and little baby Mason joined us for the day. It was also Olivia's birthday - her 25th, I think :) - so we were excited to have her for a visit on her special day. Little Mason has already grown so much in his first few weeks! He is one handsome little dude. He slept most of the time they were here, which left the adults plenty of time to catch up and gave Caroline the pleasure of hogging most of the attention. We gave the Phillips a tour of our new house, and then kicked back to enjoy each others company and eat some delicious BBQ. I also made a cake for Olivia's birthday. It was quite possible the ugliest cake to ever come out of my kitchen (ANY of my kitchens). I don't know what I was thinking when I designed it, but I do know that it was ugly! It still tasted pretty good though, and that's what counts, right?
All in all, we had a wonderful time with our dear friends and we were sad to see them go at the end of the evening. We're comforted by the fact that they at least reside in the same state as us and will only be about 1.5 hours away once they move to DC. Caroline and I look forward to some weekday trips to visit with Mason and Olivia and I know Paul is looking forward to some weekend golf meet-ups with Steve.
Caroline shows off her new toys and house.
Caroline checks out Mason...a little wary of his presense.
