Adam and I decided to take all of the Aunts to Meadow Lark Botanical Gardens for a picnic lunch after the tour of Platinum Solutions' Reston office tour. Platinum is celebrating it's 10-year anniversary this September at the botanical gardens.
All the Weymer sisters + Sky stop for a family picture after the picnic lunch at the botanical gardens.
Aunt Kathy and Sky. As soon as Sky gets a drop of food/juice on her shirt she begs for it to be taken off.
Aiden and Sky at the entrance of the garden. Look at the look on Aiden's face. It says, she is my sister and you can't have her.

Nana Beth and Aiden...they are very good together. Nana Beth loves to tell stories and Aiden LOVES to hear stories. "Nana Beth, tell me that aligator story again" begs Aiden for the twentieth time.
Aiden and Sky being silly.

Sky celebrating her 2nd birthday with the Weymer sisters....this was the THIRD time she got to blow out candles and celebrate her birthday.
It was a good thing Fireman Aiden was there to put out the fire.
That's him holding a burnt out match.
Yeah, she had everyone's attention at her birthday party.

Aiden discovers silly string...silly string was invented for kids like Aiden.
Could silly sting be any cooler?
Aiden has found his new favorite party favor.
Aiden and Sky putting together their new Aderondak chairs with Daddy...first thing in the morning. Aiden had gone to bed the night before with the promise that he'd get to help put together his chair with Daddy.
What beautiful memories you will cherish forever of Nana Beth and all of her wonderful sisters coming to visit, laugh, tell stories, eat, and enjoy getting to be with Aiden and Sky!! You will learn as you grow older that you will cherish the time that you have any of your relatives around to get to know them and they get to know you. When families live so far apart, it is hard to spend time together unless you make it happen. I happen to know each of those Weymer Sista's and they are very important people to get to know. They will love you really, really gooooooood!!! Remember, it is hard on them because their Mommy passed away over a year ago, so they have to make special arrangements to get together. I am so glad that your Mommy and Daddy are generous enough to have them visit with you and Sky. Special Ladies!!
