As usual we all had a LOT of fun and it was really awesome to see everyone and have so many other family members participate as well. I didn't take as many pictures (especially on Saturday when Karen, Mom, Dad, Jo, Gene, David, Dana and their kids were there) as I usually do as the weather did not cooperate as I had hoped; however, we still were able to get the firepit going on Thursday evening and had hot dogs, hamburgers, and marshmallow smores!
Thanks to Teresa for my early birthday cake which is KaGlom (last picture below), a game I play on my iPhone (from time to time). :-)
The kids really enjoyed playing in the yard and feeding Gracie (neighbor's horse) and the 3 goats (once they got over being afraid of her eating them too). LOL
It was a little cold that evening so Mamaw Teeta made sure all of the kids had blankets and were warm and it was truly fun although we all smelled like smoke the rest of the night. Teresa did laundry the next day to purge the odors. ha ha
Thanks again Teresa for my birthday cake; it was really awesome (both in looks and taste, but I expect that now). Everyone went home complaining about how they were going on a MAJOR DIET after all of the food that we had everyday. Thanks to all of you ladies that helped so much with all of this food prep / cleanup. P.S. Yes, I do know that it's not magic that makes it all happen so don't faint. ;-)
Sad today now that everyone has left; it's like a morgue in the house it's so quiet. Guess I'll play some music loud or a movie to make it seem like they are still here. Already looking forward to #4.
