These are my people!

Cas and I have plans later in the summer to go to New Braunfels, get a pair of inner tubes and float down the Guadalupe River.  Last night, we practiced our floating technique a little bit in my cousin Holly's pool.  True to form, there were snacks and drinks upon our arrival at Holly and Jason's house.  Later in the afternoon, there was pizza.  It was Janina's going away party- a last hurrah before her return to Finland. 

There was a good group present, and I referred to them as "my people."  Cas evidently likes my people.  I was called upon to make shots a few times in the day, and I obliged my hosts.  I managed a lemon drop, then something that was like a chocolate covered cherry.  I built one that was mint chocolate chip in flavor, as well.   Jason was all excited to use up a multi-pack of flavored vodkas in tiny bottles.  I did my best. 

We stayed out by the pool (or floated around in the pool) for several hours, and it was a good time.  As much as I have loved all of our recent outings, lounging is a good thing to do, as well.  It's Sunday today, and Cas has plans with his brother.  I, of course, have my usual plans to go hang out with Mom and Dad.  But tomorrow, all of the lounging ceases.  Tomorrow, we tackle Six Flags.
