Play all morning
Swim and eat popsicles all afternoon
Then go to bed at 10 p.m. and be up by 6:30 a.m. to start all over again. Wait- we’re going to have to work on that last part…

Jaeley the chef
Today Jaeley received a late birthday present from the Hunzekers- an apron and a chef hat. It went on the minute she got it and has not taken it off. Of course we had to test it out- she grabbed a cookbook and chose a pasta salad to prepare for us.
In the cookbook, they showed it served in colorful bowls…so guess what she had to do….
Tonight I was out, so Adam put her to bed and this is what I found when I got home: chefs need to rest too:) I may need to convince her that she can also prepare pretend food or we’ll be spending a lot of time in the kitchen…

A Girl’s Weekend (with kids and husbands)
This is how our annual girls’ weekend usually goes…just the ladies out on the town. And we did get to sneak away late last night to a roof-top pub for a little bit of alone time. But we decided to invite our families along for the fun this year and earlier in the day it looked more like this…
Picnic and playtime at Raccoon River park.
Swimming at the hotel pool
Dinner at Red Robbin. Who do you think had the calmer end of the table?
The 6 of us who get together have 10 kids and and counting…wonder if there will be any more added next year!? Wish we could hang out in our pajamas talking til the wee hours of the morning every weekend:) Click on the video on the next post to hear the song that Jess pulled up at about 1:30 a.m.…good times!

Memphis, TN
Adam and I left Wednesday night for a road trip to Memphis for the annual Dallas County Bar Association trip. As president, Adam was in charge of planning the trip and a it was a good excuse to get away!
Our favorite sites in Memphis- the world-famous Rendezvous barbeque restaurant, a music-history bus tour…(super fun!), and the highlight of the trip- The Civil Rights Museum. And important place for everyone to visit sometime in their life!

Jessica and Karl’s reception
We traveled to Irwin to celebrate Adam’s cousin Jessica’s wedding to Karl! His Aunt Kathy and Uncle Jim put on a great reception that included a re-enactment of all the weddings that have taken place at the Blair home. It was a lot of fun!

Dam to Dam 2011
Adam’s 5th consecutive Dam to Dam was a success! (And by that I mean that he was not throwing up at the finish line.) I was extra proud because I considered it his “comeback race” after the horrific shingles episode he experienced last fall. To be healthy enough to compete in a 20K is truly a blessing that neither of us will ever take for granted again. And who knew he could actually run in glasses!? Well done:)
Jace and Jenny made the trip from North Liberty to run, and the kids and I were able to cheer them all on at the 4 and 8 mile marks as well as the finish line. Fun morning!
