Change of Plans...

So we had to change our plans this weekend. We were supposed to go to see Aunt Sher-bear this weekend and see the balloon races, but Daddy's work got totally busy this week. Mommy and I were able to tear him away to visit our cousin who was in town - Sindy from Atlanta! Daddy said she is my third cousin twice removed or something like that. Here is a picture of us:

She was in town visiting her boyfriend, Ed. His family throws a big party each year up in Sonoma, so Cousin Sindy invited us! It was great! There were pony rides...

They had this big pond with really colorful fish (one of my many new words!):

And a live band, lots of good dancing!

The house was really pretty, lots of flowers and some doggies running around. (I know what the doggie says - woof! And the cow, and the lion...)

There was a big pool with a slide and a diving board. Daddy and I went for a dip because it was very hot out! They even had a casino set up! Here's a picture of me and Daddy playing poker...

The party was great, and it was good to see Cousin Sindy again! It was a nice escape for the day...


Back at home, check out the new place I found to hang out...
