Let's Celebrate....Shall we?!

Ok so where did I leave off?  Oh yes...Uncle Just...we partied for him last weekend!

Sorry it's been about a week, but it's just been crazy around here and I've had no time for the computer, let alone uploading a gazillion pics and so on.  But don't you worry, I'm still here...I'm still BIG...and I'm still 9 months pregnant and ready to get my blog on....

Memorial Day weekend was spent saying ALOHA to Uncle Just.  He will be doing his residency in Hawaii for 5 years.  We are already planning a vacation out there next November  - The baby will be a little over a year and will still be free to fly in a plane which always helps.  But we shall see...I will be sure to let you know when we book that baby!

We kicked off the weekend down at Sidetracks.  My mom was wonderful and kept Grey while we went down to the bar.  Everyone partied, did some shots, had some good conversation, while I being 9 months pregnant as you all well know walked around with my BIG camera and got some weird looks - hah!  Just kidding - sort of...I don't know...Sidetracks...9 months pregnant...BIG camera...totally sober...and a bunch of people (let's just say) feelin' pretty good around me...Is that a good mix?  What do you think?


I think it's safe to say that Just had a good time on his last weekend in the Illinois Valley


We all soaked it up and had a good time...

Good times were definitely had...


It was a great way to say farewell and a great start to Justin's new journey.  We will miss him a ton, but we know he is only a phone call away and SKYPE is a must.

We are so proud of you Uncle Just!

ALOHA baby!
