We had a fun birthday weekend/party with both sides of the family. To start off the weekend Matt's brother, Jared, and his family all came down on Friday. We were able to visit with them and the kids, go out to dinner and take a walk to the park.
Then on Saturday (Caleb's birthday) both sets of grandparents, my sister and her husband, and Matt's aunt and uncle were also able to come spend the day with us. It was beautiful outside so we spent time playing in the yard and sitting on the deck too.
I spent all of Friday morning and a little bit of time during the week before preparing food so I wouldn't have to worry about cooking while everyone was here. For breakfast we had Lucky Charms and homemade granola bars. For lunch we had sloppy joes, green veggie tray, green fruit salad, pretzels, and a green relish tray. It was simple but filling. For dinner I made chicken tetrazzini, fresh salad, maple brown sugar sweet potatoes and anything leftover from lunch.
In the middle of the day we had cake (made by a friend from church) and mint chocolate chip ice cream. Caleb also got to open presents. He got some cute summer clothes, some books, his first remote control car, a football and soccer ball, a puzzle and a few other things. It's been fun because his new presents are actually the toys he likes the best right now. So, it's good to see them get some use!
