saturday was a huge family party at my moms house. "long lost" italian cousins from connecticut came out for a visit so everyone came together. there we are. you should have seen me running across the lawn to get the picture of all of us.

i just love little sweet party faces.

and piñatas

and little curly girls who want me to pick the high flowers off the vine for them

and gorgeous sisters

and of course little boys in hats they swiped from their aunt karissa

and definitely slightly buzzed dads, hamming it up for the camera
