Introductions Part 1

Our first stop in Boise was with Judes and crew. While the grandparents had already met precious baby Max, he was now five weeks older and extra, extra squeezable.
Lidia meets Max and just wanted to touch him so much, but we had to watch her because she is still so little herself and has not mastered the tender touch.
Abigail, on the other hand, became very skilled and giving Max nice and soft touches on the face. She loved Max. Cousins united!
We went that night to The Cheesecake Factory for Carley's birthday. As you can see, there were a "few" salads ordered...complete with sauces galore.
Birthday girl and Jonathon await their delicious meals.
And after the food - birthday celebrations thanks to the TCF. Nice touch TCF with the writing.
Then we went to the mall to find Carley presents. Abigail tried to play with her Papa, but he was wayyyyy to tuckered out for games. So she would turn to her fallback buddy - me.
We played a lot of hide and seek/tag with my camera. Abigail would try to hide and run away from my picture taking, but I would capture her.
You can run but you can't hide ABS!
Meanwhile, Papa chills with Lids - a more relaxing affair.
The next day we watched the Super Bowl at Jonathon's house and he spent the evening rubbing the score in Caitlin's face...until The Saints passed by Indianapolis and Caitlin had the last laugh. The commercials? Mediocre.
I spent a lot of the time watching Max. He's more entertaining then football, let's be honest.
He looks, he scores!
Then on Monday it was Carley's actual birthday, so we took her to Costa Vida for lunch. We got their early and decorated our table with birthday surprises.
Happy Birthday!
Serious party favors man...that was our plan. We were fortunate to be in town for fun events like birthdays. More to come with Pam's birthday and other adventures from our trip to Boise.
