La Quinta and Beyond.

 
Last week, we (as in 17 of us) celebrated my parents' 50th wedding anniversary.   
Seriously, they are still in love, still laughing together...bliss!
 
 
We even managed to get a few shots in of all of us!  Quite a task :)
 
 
The Love-Bakers flew in from DC for this monumental occasion. 
We all met up in La Quinta (near Palm Springs). 
Here is Sydney (who is now 14) spending some serious time with the girls.
 

It was hot!  Nearly 107 degrees everyday.  Hence, a lot of pool time. 
Here Grandpa whoops it up with Cassie!

 
Despite the heat, we all still spent time in the "Ca-Juzzi" (as Gwen called it)

 
Grandma and the boys (Cole, Ty & Reese)
 
 
We even did a "Glow-stick" night.  Here is Bob with Syd and Mia
 
 
Steve and Ty doing some pool acrobatics!
 
 
Grandma with Alex & Jackie
 
 
Us!  The girls swam from early in the morning until late at night. 
 
 
Cathy and Mia
 
We had a "train" in the pool one hot afternoon.

On the day we left, we all went to a delish breakfast together.
 
 
And Cole, who is now in College, patiently coloring with Gwen.
 
 
And here is the original family of 5 Loves!

Loved this post! What a dynasty Uncle Bill and Aunt Sandy have created. They are an inspiration to us all. Everyone looks fabulous. Now if only we could get the east coast Loves and the west coast loves together one of these days!

Mom and Dad are coming out for the birth of baby boy #5 in October. Fun times!
