Intern Outings

A few weeks ago, we stayed in Jackson for a weekend to spend some time with the other interns that Adam works with.
Adam works with Maria, Cathy, and Christina.  They are all married but only one of the spouses lives here in Jackson.  Everyone else is "commuting" like Adam and I are for the year.  This particular weekend, all spouses/families were going to be in town visiting so it was an opportune time to get together and meet everyone.

The weekend began with a little Girls Night Out for margaritas.  It was great to get out and even greater to get to spend some time with the girls who look after my man during the week!

We woke up to beautiful weather on Saturday with highs in the 70s.  So after naps, we headed out to a nearby park to play and to meet Christina's daughter, Katherine.  Katherine and Thomas had fun playing together at the park.  The playground area was covered with sand and a lot of their time was spent digging in the dirt...



...which provided for a fun clean-up!

There was also some swinging...
...and some soaking up of the gorgeous, spring-like weather!
After the park, we moved the party over to Cathy and Christina's apartment for dinner.  Thomas and Katherine had a ball, complete with new toys and a movie!

they both requested wipes while watching their movie...a replacement for popcorn??

are we shying away, Thomas??
The grown-ups had fun with good food, good wine and great stories!

we laugh at this picture...it looks like Adam with all of his followers!
 Evan had a great time as well...

 ...he was the life of the party!

We had such a good time getting to meet everyone!  Hopefully we'll get to do it again before the year's over!

*thanks Cathy for letting me steal some of your pics of the weekend =)*
