My Little Brother's 40th!

We got together 6 days after my brother's official birthday because my Dad and Bonus-Mom were coming into town. My brother had no idea but I didn't get a good photo of his surprise face when we yelled "SURPRISE." We ate yummy food. Homemade Cafe Rio pork salads and some of Lundgren's stuffed peppers with chorizo and cheese. Lemon Meringue pie for the birthday boy,(his favorite), and chocolate cake. The party was LOUD and crazy and fun...nearly perfect! We barely saw any of the boy cousins since they were running here and there...from trampoline to video games to nerf gun wars. We did managed to get a photo of all of the grand-kids together for the first time in a LONG time!

My sweet, wonderful Moms.
My kids are sad that Grandpa and Grandma have headed back to Idaho...mostly because they took Seth, the dog, with them. We'll have to visit again soon. In the meantime, my kids can't stop looking at these pictures from last night. Good times.
