Today we went over to Shari and Garrison's house to hang out for Brad's birthday. Shari made lasagna, garlic bread and salad for lunch. And I made Brad's favorite cake, strawberry jello cake with fresh strawberries and cool whip. We were able to visit with Shari and Garrison, while Sierra played with Devin, Alex played with Matthew and Ted played with Nick! It was so nice. Brad took Sierra home for a nap (and probably took a nap himself) and I stayed at Shari's with Ted and Alex. Alex and his friends played in the sprinklers, Ted and Nick went to the community pool and I stayed and visited with Shari, Karen (Shari's sister), and Tim (Karen's friend). Brad came back after Sierra's nap and we had a quick dinner and everyone went down to the pool to play. Ted and Nick were able to go down to the deep end and the diving boards. Alex was able to play at the shallow end of the big pool and we got Sierra into the pool. She didn't like the pool a whole lot, but she
LOVED the water slide!!! I would set her on it and help her slide down the last few feet and drop her into Brad's arms, she loved it. After the pool closed we went back to Shari's house and put Sierra down to bed in a port-a-crib. We let Alex stay up and play until he wanted to go to bed at 10:30pm (he ended up falling asleep on the couch in the playroom while watching tv). Ted stayed up and played cards with all of us; Brad, Shari, Karen, Lee (Karen's husband), Nick and me. At midnight we had Ted go to sleep in another room (he was so excited to stay up soooooo late) and the rest of us played Apples to Apples (Garrison joined us when he got home from work) until 1:30am!! We packed up the car, loaded up all the kids and came home, put the kids into their beds and went straight to bed!! Brad and I were exhausted!!!! Happy 30th!!!!
