The Weiland Family Blog: Some Firsts!

Kate had her first lunch date a couple of weeks ago with several lovely ladies that included Deb, Deb Bell (Deb's friend) and her daughter, Abbey. Abbey was moving to Alabama the next day and really wanted to meet Kate before she left so we all met at a local cafe to eat, chat and say our good-byes to her. It was so great to see her and I wish her and her husband the best of luck as they begin another chapter in a new city.

Kate also got to experience her first boat ride on Friday. Deb, Ryan, Greg, John, Kate and I all surprised Joe with a belated Father's Day get-together. As you may recall from an earlier post, they were all in North Carolina for Father's Day so we were apart for that special day. We couldn't have picked a better night to slowly cruise down the Fox River. The weather was absolutely beautiful and the water was so calm. I think it's safe to say that Kate had a great time despite not liking her sun hat. Enjoy the pics!
