Birthday Weekend

Well, Carver and Kinnick enjoyed a full birthday weekend last week rather than just one day. They started with dinner at Pizza Hut (their choice) in Tipton Friday night, which was actually their birthday. Saturday morning consisted of opening presents from Mom and Dad, and Iowa tailgating at our house due to inclement weather.


Following the Iowa victory over the Clones, we were able to fully celebrate the boy's birthday with a party at our house including both sets of Grandparents and my sister's family. On Sunday we were able to enjoy the morning at our church and then the afternoon was spent enjoying time along Lake Macbride. One of Amy's co-workers and friend lives west of Solon and just off the shore of Lake Macbride. We were thankfully invited out to Wayne and Diane's house to enjoy a ride on the pontoon boat, a little bit of fishing, and grilling out dinner. The kids had a wonderful time as Wayne, "The Bear", was a favorite with the kids.
