Labor Day weekend BBQ & Rodeo

Mitch decided to throw a little "Labor Day BBQ" on Sunday and invite a few people over.... 20 adults and over 20 kids later... we realized it wasn't such a small gathering after all. We were so glad that almost everyone came! Everyone had a great time and there were almost no injuries (little Jared bumped his head)! But considering that the kids were all jumping off the hot tub wall into the pool (which was full of kids), that's not too bad! Mitch was the grillmaster and did a great job, there was plenty of yummy food and even lots of leftovers! Here are just a few pictures:




Anthony was so busy with the big boys that he wouldn't even look at me all day. Luckily Sander and Griffin adopted him for the afternoon. They took very good care of him, taught him to play football, and even made sure he ate. Thanks guys!


It was Valentina's 3rd birthday! She was our guest of honor! Thanks for celebrating with us! We love an excuse for dessert!

The next day Anthony went to the Okeechobee Rodeo with his NuNu, his Aunts, and his cousins. They had a great time and he has been saying "YeeHaw!" ever since. Now he wants to be a cowboy... at least for Halloween. He even went out on the arena and chased a cow with a bow on his behind with all the kids! He has also been very concerned about a particular cowboy who got bucked and "broke his leg". Thanks to all the Mazza's for a great day! Feel free to correct my story if I got it wrong... this is the "3 year old version".


Meanwhile... Mitch and I could be found working hard on our tans and zzzzz's.... all the way up until we got rained (poured) on!
